The missing mandate behind Biden’s grandiose plans
American Thinker ^ | Andrea Widberg

Posted on 04/10/2021 4:01:22 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

If you are a political leader who wishes to effect “fundamental change” during your lifetime, there are only two ways to achieve that goal: Receiving a massive electoral mandate or, failing that, using the government’s military force against those citizens who resist fundamental change. The Democrats, with their grandiose plans for gun control, court-packing, erasing America’s sovereign border, and adding new states, are acting as if they have that mandate. As their desperation to end the filibuster shows, they don’t. That leaves only force.

In November 2020, Biden apparently won more votes than any other president in American history, including Barack Obama in 2008, implying that he has a popular mandate for his revolutionary plans. That implication is a lie, and not just for the obvious reason. There are, in fact, three reasons why he has no mandate:

One: According to polls, 77% of Republicans, 30% of Democrats, and 43% of men doubt that Biden received as many as 81 million votes or that Trump received as few as 74 million. Overall, up to 45% of Americans distrust the election results. They strongly suspect that election chicanery, made possible in large part by COVID-justified unconstitutional changes to voting rules in various states, gave Biden a victory to which he is not entitled. That high level of distrust negates a mandate.

Two: Even if one assumes solely for the sake of argument that Biden got as many votes as claimed, he had no coattails. Republicans had a massive sweep at the state level across America, gaining almost 60% of statehouses and governors’ mansions. Likewise, at the House, the Republicans not only didn’t lose seats, but they also gained seats.

If anyone can find "the consent of the governed" in Biden's Daily Schedule (provided by Obama), let me know.

Biden is relegated to ruling with force and fear, not w/ the required consent of the governed.

Every move alleged president Biden makes is:
(A) to make every Biden family member filthy rich,
(b) to assure China he is still in abject obeisance to them,
(c) to stroke Obama's massive ego.

Biden doesnt yet know WE KNOW he and the stupid Democraps have lost control of our country.

That means more razor wire around the Capital to protect the scared elected scalawags from we, the people.

Mmmmmm....the international invites must be stacking up.

So many of our allies abroad are just dying to have Mr Popularity and "Dr" Jill over for a state visit.

And they're just dying to meet Hunter Biden.....or as he's more popularly known......Meth Mouth.

ROTFLOL.

Mandate, smandate. It does not matter. The Democrats control the presidency and both houses of Congress. Plus they have the will to enact a radical agenda by a margin of one.

Hence, the continued presence of troops in DC. I suppose the Democrats don't care about the optics of looking like repressive regimes all over the world. After all, they have admired dictators for ages.

The problem with the missing mandate is that when the Fascist Rats anyway ram thru their extremist agenda, as they are now doing, and it fails to make 81 million Rat voters (inclusive of the dead and illegals) “feel” any better, while dragging down the rest of society, then what will the Rats do? Double down on stupidity? How long can 81 million Rat voters (inclusive of the dead and illegals) remain disconnected from reality? That’s the existential question for the American Empire in its dying days.

Generations, if places like Detroit, Camden, Baltimore, etc. are any indications. In fact, living in places like that used to be called "keeping it real". IOW, that's the way it should be.

You can now add NYC, SF, Minneapolis, etc. It's not going away, it's growing, along with debt to pay for it all.

The GOP assisted the Democrats every step of the way.

The U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives would need to approve any statehood admission by a two-thirds majority vote [source: The Week ].

I love Andrea Widburg but she needs to get her facts straight.

There’s no way the Democrats will get a 2/3 vote in the House and Senate. Even a dog will ignore a worn out old bone!
