Joe Biden made a mockery of the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia on July 13, with his grotesque speech on his version of the word “democracy,” which apparently means “the right to vote for Joe Biden, without being exposed to other viewpoints.”
“No other election has ever been held under such scrutiny and such high standards,” he proclaimed. “The big lie is just that — a big lie.”
He managed to deliver the whopper that “In America, if you lose you accept the results,” with a straight face, as though the response to Trump’s 2016 victory was anything close to “accept[ing] the results"! Trump’s entire administration was one concocted scandal after another, designed to send a message — to him and to the American people — that he would not be allowed to govern.
He demanded the passage of laws related to voting, and for the Department of Justice to use “its authorities to challenge the onslaught of state laws undermining voting rights in old and new ways.” Likening laws — some of which may indeed be wrong, but certainly not uniformly so — to one of the darkest periods of American history, he asserted “The 21st Century Jim Crow assault is real, it’s unrelenting, and we’re going to challenge it vigorously.” What a mockery he makes of true battles against massive injustice!
