President Biden denounced socialism during a Thursday press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, taking a swipe at the ideology that an increasing number of fellow Democrats embrace.
“Communism is a failed system, a universally failed system. And I don’t see socialism as a very useful substitute, but that’s another story,” Biden said in the White House East Room.
Biden denounced the left-wing ideologies in response to a question about Cuba, where the largest anti-government protests in decades erupted Sunday. He separately slammed “phony populism.”
With extremely narrow margins in Congress, Biden’s legislative agenda has relied on a delicate balance between centrist Democrats and self-identified socialists.

Merkle and BiXiden are not for Socialism for the masses? Being oppressive oligarchs for themselves?

I am guessing Obama & Co. decided to do a bit of damage control and his handler Susan Rice told him to say this. We ar living in very dangerous times.

Nobody thinks Joe means this.
Joe doesn’t have a clue what he’s reading. Or thinking.

If Biden weren’t a politician, he’d be a used car dealer and his wife would run the local beauty salon/massage palor on the wrong side of the tracks.

Its purpose is to misdirect Americans: "See, Joe isn't some crazy socialist like the other Dems."
