Biden calls Trump's philosophy 'semi-fascism'
|
[POLITICO] Exuberant over a string of recent legislative victories, and launching his midterm campaigning in earnest, President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing ...
swaggered into Maryland on Thursday and excoriated his predecessor’s philosophy as "semi-fascism
 ...a political system developed in Italy, symbolized by the Roman fasces -- thin reeds, each flimsy in itself but unbreakable when bound into a bundle. Its distinguishing philosophical feature is the Corporate State. The word is nowadays thrown around by all sorts of people who have no idea what they're talking about...
," in what constituted an unusually pointed and highly charged denunciation of Republicans.
"What we’re seeing now is either the beginning or the death knell of extreme MAGA philosophy," Biden told Democratic donors in the Washington suburb of Rockville. Calling out those he labeled as "extreme" Republicans, Biden said: "It’s not just Trump, it’s the entire philosophy that underpins the — I’m going to say something, it’s like semi-fascism."
Later, at a national Democratic Party
 ...every time you hear the phrase white people , white supremacy, white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...
event before a few thousand people packed into a nearby high school gym, Biden added: "I respect conservative Republicans. I don’t respect these MAGA Republicans."
"There are not many real Republicans anymore," Biden added.
No president in recent memory has had a better month of August, lifting the mood inside the White House and injecting fresh hope across the party ahead of what long looked like a bleak midterm election. In recent weeks, Democrats have passed a slew of marquee bills filled with deliverables that Biden ticked through in his speeches. The president painted the last year-plus as something of an American comeback — and a recovery from the depths of the pandemic and economic turmoil: "We’ve come a long way," he said.
And after a recent stretch of self-isolation as he recovered from Covid, Biden appeared to relish the opportunity to close out the night by wading into the audience and spending several minutes grinning for selfies.
Republicans called the president’s comment about fascism "despicable," with a spokesperson for the GOP saying Americans are still "suffering" from high inflation.
For Biden, spending the evening in a blue state with few competitive elections pointed to the careful calculation the White House faces in deploying him over the next 75 days. While the president’s approval numbers have ticked up of late, he still hovers around the low- to mid-40s, and many Democrats remain reluctant to appear with him.
