'Moderate' Joe Biden Has Become a Socialist Tyrant
Towhall.com ^ | October 19, 2021 | Oliver North and David Goetsch

Posted on 10/19/2021 4:59:44 AM PDT by Kaslin

As a U.S. Senator, Joe Biden was known as a political moderate. When he ran for president in 2020, he portrayed himself as the Democrats' middle-of-the-road candidate -- a man who could work with both sides of the aisle and unite Americans of all political persuasions. However, when being a moderate wasn't helping his chances of winning the nomination, candidate Biden quickly switched horses in midstream, adopting the far-left platform of socialist Bernie Sanders.

This move won him the Democrats' nomination and made him beholden to the radical left-wing of the Democrat Party. It also called into question Biden's judgment, a subject tackled quite capably by award-winning journalist Caroline Glick in her column "Joe Biden's catastrophic judgment." For example, concerning his judgment in handling the U.S. exit from Afghanistan, Glick observed Biden's judgment "was never reasoned or fact-based" and he "was catastrophically wrong." She also makes the equally valid point that once the president adopts a position, he "is unwilling to listen to counterargument" and "he will not rethink his choices or positions, even after they failed."

Although Glick's comments were directed at the president's catastrophic handling of foreign affairs, her insights apply just as directly to his domestic socialist agenda -- an agenda he pigheadedly adheres to even as it proves to be as much a disaster as the Afghanistan bug out. In foreign affairs, Biden has proven to be a bumbling incompetent. On the homefront, he has become a socialist tyrant in the mold of Hugo Chavez. We warned this would happen in our book, "We Didn't Fight for Socialism: America's Veterans Speak Up." In this book, we laid out the socialist agenda Biden would inflict on our country point by point. To date, he has checked every box on our list.

We warned how in socialist countries, government agencies are weaponized and used to suppress citizen dissent. True to form, Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland have directed the FBI to treat parents who oppose the teaching of critical race theory as domestic terrorists. As a result, this once highly respected agency is now viewed by many Americans as a bunch of jackbooted thugs. In addition to weaponizing the FBI, the president has proposed banks be required to report citizens who spend more than $600 to the IRS so the government can monitor their spending.

We warned how in socialist countries, out-of-control government spending invariably leads to raging inflation and a burdensome national debt. Not surprisingly, with Biden pushing a tax-and-spend socialist agenda, prices of essential goods and services have skyrocketed -- if you can get them at all -- and the national debt has soared to unprecedented levels. In spite of this and proving the accuracy of Glick's comments, Biden refuses to scrap his misnamed $3.5 trillion infrastructure bill, which even moderate Democrats reject.

We warned that in socialist countries, the work ethic is replaced by an entitlement mentality in which people who are perfectly capable of working instead choose to remain idle and expect the government to provide for all their needs. With Biden pushing a socialist agenda in which Americans of prime working age are paid "stimulus" dollars as part of the misnamed American Rescue Act, people are choosing to stay home rather than work. The president's socialist policies have created the unprecedented phenomenon known as the "great walkout" in which working-age citizens are simply walking off their jobs and staying home.

America is feeling the pain of this problem in every sector of our economy.

The Republican Party allowed Biden to steal the 2020 election. They did this because they did not like President Trump exposing the Republican Party for the empty bag that it is. Therefore the purging the Republican Party is the first objective in getting rid of the disaster that is Joe Biden.

Bidet is who he always was: A political opportunist who takes money from the big donor corporations and then uses things like race to divide and conquer the middle and lower classes. It's what he does. Things that might actually help the working class poor, like student loan forgiveness, just get talked about, while important things to the ruling class, unlimited cheap labor, where done illegally from day one. That's really not Bernie's economic program, although he has been silent on the point, and thus abandoning his constituents.

Lmao!! Pedo Joe hasn’t “become” anything. He was told by the system that he could finally get to be president, although it would require he do and say every thing he was told. Failure to do so would mean the system would be forced to reveal the hard evidence of his family corruption.
He is stumbling through the charade as a politician, which is familiar to him as he exists in his dementia, reads off cards, sits in on some meetings. He then goes home to Delaware to be “reoriented” by his crappy family.

What a joke this country is. The history books will have a field day with this one!!

See my tagline.

The GOP believes in and will fight for:

1) Open borders
2) A global open market in labor
3) Offshoring productive industries
4) Financialization of the economy
5)) Severing the medium of exchange function of money from the store of value function.
6) Usury as the main engine of consumption.
7) Denying the people their natural, healthy love of their nation
8) Overseas wars on behalf of alien peoples without recompense for our sacrifice.
9) Forced “diversity” with its attendent decline in standards and inevitably accompanying violence.

The GOP has plenty of principles, convictions, and values. YOU must decide if they are yours, or not.

Exactly. Joe is nothing but a stupid and now senile old puppet of the elites. It sickens me how much energy our side is spending attacking "Joe Biden" instead of the people behind the curtains... why don't we ever talk about who is really running the show???

No, massive cheating in the primaries allowed Bidet to "win" the Dem nomination. There never was any enthusiasm for this doddering corrupt career politician. Big money bought the nomination, and then the steal of the general election. The Bidet regime only cares about serving the big money that bought the steal for him.

Joe Biden has become a socialist tyrant

Joe Biden is irrelevant. He hasn't "become" anything, and he isn't "doing" anything either.

Some people have developed great insights into how and why we got into this mess. One reason is the development of personalization of political phenomena.

"It's Biden! No, it's Pelosi!, No, it's Newsom", and so on.

All these people Republican propagandists are egging you on about are IRRELEVANT.

They are paid actors working in a stage play to move forward actions and policies of a MOVEMENT whose leaders remain invisible and therefore invulnerable.

Make it a habit to delete anything that begins "Biden says, Biden promises, Biden does this, Biden does that, Biden has become..." und so weiter.

Biden is a senile old man who is not even allowed to speak in public by his puppeteers.

Forget about him and focus on the forces that put him in front of the curtain that hides them from your eyes.

He never was a moderate.

He has always been a louse.

The picture is horrible. How could anyone?

Sam Nunn was a moderate Democrat. Slow Joe was and always has been a liberal of the racist variety!

“has”??

He has always been a tyrant. Liberals are by their nature tyrants. They got that way by listening to their grandpappies moan on and on about the pleasures of owning actual slaves — and hating conservatives (republicans) for taking them away.

Joe is just a senile puppet who is not in charge of anything. A cabal of Marxists, Obama retreads and leftist ideologues are running the country.
