Joe Biden’s far-left ‘unity’ will divide us
New York Post ^ | January 23, 2021 | Michael Goodwin

Posted on 01/24/2021 3:38:39 AM PST by karpov

The joke survives the test of time and, under the circumstances, deserves repeating. As the late journalist Mickey Carroll told it, a suburban town with a population 90 percent Irish and 10 percent Jewish held a mayoral election involving two candidates — one Irish and one Jewish.

The Irish candidate won with — wouldn’t you know it? — 90 percent of the vote. Whereupon he immediately denounced the clannishness of the Jews!

The story offers a useful way to view Joe Biden’s calls for national unity. Let’s just say our president is as sincere as the fictional Irish mayor.

Biden won the right to pursue the leftist agenda he campaigned on. But his promise that he will also work for the Americans who didn’t vote for him is more fig leaf than honest invitation.

As John Mitchell famously said about Richard Nixon’s White House, “Watch what we do, not what we say.”

Applying that standard to Biden, we should ignore the unity talk because everything he has done leans far left.

Again, he’s entitled — elections have consequences. But knitting together a fractured America around a far-left agenda was never going to work. And Biden knows it.

In fact, his actions suggest the “Kumbaya” appeal is not directed at Trump voters or even the public in general.

It’s really a disguised call to the factions in his own party to stick together, to give him a chance. I’ll keep you all happy, he’s saying, just watch.

Biden kept Dems together during the campaign because everyone wanted to dump Trump.

Now that he’s won, he’s got to find other ways to keep the fault lines from widening.

He "won" nothing. He stole it.

This will NOT be forgotten as hard as the conspiring left may try to bury it.

I think the country is done. Illegals get to vote and there’s nothing to overcome the liberal vote

Notice how the author uses the word “won”. The Pedo didn’t win the election, he stole it.

The only “unity” I will have with the illegitimate communist regime as at the barrel of an AK 47.
You can't unite with a bunch or terrorists that want you dead. You fight them every chance you get.

Now that he's won,

He “won” same as Stalin won.
Stealing and wining are two entirely different things.

President Creepy...

Dec 3, 2019: Joe Biden describing how children would rub his leg hair when he was a lifeguard at a Delaware pool:

“And by the way, you know, I sit on the stand, and it’d get hot.

I gotta lotta, I got hairy legs, that turn, that, that, that, that turn, uh, uh, um, blond in the sun.

And the kids used to come up and reach into the pool and rub my leg down so it was straight and then watch the hair, mmm, come, come back up again,” Mr. Biden said.

“So I learned about roaches and I learned about kids jumping on my lap. And I love kids jumping on my lap ...” (all actual quotes!)

Biden Swims Naked, Upsetting Female Secret Service Agents

by Steven Nelson, Staff Writer - Aug 1, 2014

“Vice President Joe Biden enjoys swimming without a bathing suit, a new book claims. Biden, who’s flirting with a run for president in 2016, gives Secret Service agents an eyeful both at his Delaware home and at the vice president’s official residence in Washington, D.C., according to “The First Family Detail” by Ronald Kessler. ...”

“Agents say that, whether at the vice president’s residence or at his home in Delaware, Biden has a habit of swimming in his pool nude,” Kessler writes in the book – due for release Aug. 5 [2014] “Female Secret Service agents find that offensive,” he writes. ...”

Joe Biden Exposed Himself to Female Secret Service Agents

Breitbart, John Nolte, April 2, 2019

“One agent told Kessler, “Biden likes to swim nude both at his Vice President’s residence in Washington and also at his home in Wilmington which he goes back to several times a week … and this offends female Secret Service agents,” he told Fox News’s Sean Hannity. “They signed up to take a bullet for the President as you said but they didn’t sign up to — they certainly didn’t sign up to see Biden naked. It is offensive, it’s abusive.”

Who would do such a thing? It’s like hiring a maid and walking around the house nude because that’s what you did before you hired the maid. ...”

The naked truth: Skinny dipper Biden dives into race, and nudists like what they see

by Steven Nelson, White House Reporter | April 29, 2019

Former Vice President Joe Biden is turning heads among American nudists as he plunges into the 2020 presidential race.

Although proudly pan-partisan, nudism activists believe Biden’s reported preference for swimming without a suit could lead to an administration sympathetic to their policies.

“We are encouraged by the prospect that someone who understands how much you enjoy your birthday suit is seeking higher office. That’s a great thing,” said Erich Schuttauf, executive director of the American Association for Nude Recreation.

Schuttauf said that far from being a liability, Biden could gain voters by speaking on nudism. About 18% of Americans have engaged in skinny-dipping, he said, and polling indicates even greater interest among young adults. ...”

The author is an idiot or pure evil. There is no middle ground.
