Too Little Too Late? Biden Finally Admits the Truth About the 'C' Word
Town Hall ^ | 15 July 2021 | Rebecca Downs

Posted on 07/16/2021 7:25:15 AM PDT by Rummyfan

During a joint press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Thursday, President Joe Biden was asked about Cuba, where people are protesting the oppressive Communist regime.

"Communism is a failed system, universally failed system," Biden admitted. "I don't see socialism as a very useful substitute, but that's another story," he continued without elaborating.

He went on to say that "Cuba is a, uh, unfortunately, a failed state and oppressing their citizens. There are a number of things that we could consider doing to help the people of Cuba, but it would require a different circumstance or a guarantee that they would not be taken advantage of by the government."

Another part of the president's answer touched upon what he says Cubans need, specifically as it pertains to the Wuhan coronavirus, however.

"With regard to the need, COVID, I mean, excuse me, they have a COVID problem, on, in, on Cuba. I'd be prepared to give significant amounts of vaccine if, in fact, I was assured an international organization would administer those vaccines. Um and uh, um, one of the things that uh you did not ask but we're considering is they've cut off access to the Internet. Um, we're considering whether we have the technological ability to reinstate that access. Um, and I think I've answered your questions. Thank you."

Just a head fake, he’s disparaging socialism as he is implementing it.

LOL, the lie about “communism” ever existing. Marx couldn’t even define it properly. The Manifesto was a treatise on implementing totalitarian socialism by violent revolution.

He doesn’t know if he’s a capitalist a Marxist or a guppy. His handlers rule the roost.

Sounds like Biden is saying Cuba’s health care system is terrible.

I thought Sanders and AOC said Cuban health care was great roll model?

The polls must be horrible for Democrats. They are just putting lipstick on a pig because they are communists and no lying will change that.

Biden’s cue cards may well say the very well say the same thing tomorrow. After they dress and toilet him, we’ll find out.

American socialism is just a nod to the Marxist fools that support him. We’re on track to be a fascist oligarchy.

So true.

I remember a cartoon I saw while Poland was succeeding with their ‘Solidarity’ movement.

In the cartoon, Brezhnev was standing in a tank turret with his arms up: “Workers of the world... DISBAND!”

‘Allowed to trade with rich Capitalist countries....”

Seriously, that is a lame argument for them to make.... According to the Communist ‘catechisms’ I have ever heard...ALL Capitalists systems are evil and must be (WILL be) taken down!
