“The best trick the Satan ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.”
“The second best trick the Satan ever pulled was convincing the world he’s the great man.”
To be clear, this author does not assume Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. is the satan … however man, how are you going to not consider these quotes with every passing anecdote revealing the kind of man the forty sixth president actually is?
The most recent instance of this got here Thursday, when The Hill printed an excerpt from “FIGHT: Contained in the Wildest Battle for the White Home” by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes.
(The e book is slated to launch April 1.)
“FIGHT” supplies a behind-the-scenes glimpse of what Democrat management was grappling with within the lead-up to what would change into a dominant electoral win by now-President Donald Trump.
One pivotal second: Failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris’ ballyhooed debate with Trump.
“She was working out of main moments to clarify a imaginative and prescient to a broad viewers,” the e book claimed. “Her September 10 debate with Trump would provide one other alternative — maybe a final probability earlier than voters forged early ballots — to ascertain that key a part of her narrative.
“However the day of the controversy Biden known as to provide Harris an uncommon form of pep speak — and one other reminder concerning the loyalty he demanded.
“Now not in a position to defend his personal document, he anticipated Harris to guard his legacy.”
“Loyalty he demanded”? “Anticipated Harris to guard his legacy”? I’m sorry, are these descriptions of Biden, or is the institution media whining about Trump once more?
Severely, do these not sound like the precise criticisms typically lobbed at Trump, with nary a shred of concrete proof?
But, I digress.
“Whether or not she received or misplaced the election, he thought, she would solely hurt him by publicly distancing herself from him — particularly throughout a debate that may be watched by tens of millions of People,” the e book continues. “To the extent that she needed to forge her personal path, Biden had little interest in giving her room to take action.
“He wanted simply three phrases to convey how a lot all of that mattered to him.”
These three phrases? “No daylight, child.”
The above ought to paint a fairly clear image of a deeply insecure, vindictive, power-hungry previous man — however anybody who doesn’t lap up the Biden Kool-Help has identified that about him already.
How else do you clarify his family-focused pardon spree that he swore he wouldn’t do? How else do you clarify the general public disdain Biden had for his granddaughter? How else do you clarify the fixed experiences about his nasty mood?
Occam’s razor means that the only reply is usually the very best, so by that logic, Biden is this fashion as a result of that’s who he’s.
This folksy charade of Biden being an “Aw, shucks”-kind of grandfather has at all times been simply that — a charade.
Biden has — and at all times has — cared for little greater than energy and standing. It’s virtually his household enterprise, for crying out loud (and enterprise isn’t booming nowadays).
One of many many causes that Trump appeals to so many People is that the president walks round with an air of authenticity. What you see is what you get with Trump; he’s a tough-talker with some tough edges and a coronary heart of gold.
Biden would love you to assume his coronary heart can be fabricated from precious minerals, nevertheless it’s clear that, at finest, he’s acquired a lump of coal the place his aorta ought to lie.
Each new story concerning the former president makes that a bit clearer.
