WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden will sound an alarm Thursday night about what he views as “extremist” threats to American democracy from the restive forces of Trumpism, aiming to reframe the November elections as part of an unceasing battle for the “soul of the nation.”
Nearly two years after he defeated Donald Trump, it’s a reprise of Biden’s 2020 campaign theme, casting the midterm election stakes in as dire terms as those that sent him to the Oval Office. His prime-time speech at Independence Hall in Philadelphia will lay out what he sees as the risks from those he has dubbed “ultra-MAGA Republicans” to the nation’s system of government, its standing abroad and its citizens’ way of life.
The explicit effort by Biden to marginalize Trump and and his “Make America Great Again” adherents marks a sharp turn for the president, who preached his desire to bring about national unity in his Inaugural address. White House officials said it reflects his mounting concern about Trump conservatives’ ideological proposals and 2020 election denialism.
Biden, who had largely avoided even referring to “the former guy” by name during his first year in office, has grown increasingly vocal in calling out Trump personally. Now, emboldened by his party’s recent legislative wins and wary of Trump’s return to the headlines, Biden is sharpening his attacks.
At a Democratic fundraiser last week, Biden likened the “MAGA philosophy” to “semi-fascism.”

Which are turning out to be actual failures in the eyes of the public.
Hey Joe Manchin, what happened to those fossil fuel extras you negotiated with Chuck U?
Oops, Nancy said "No, sucka!"
I can’t wait to laugh at Potato Mussolini’s declaration of war on Make America Great Again citizens.
I am an Ultra MAGA Deplorable Semi-Fascist and retards like Pedo Pete Biden cannot provoke or intimidate me. :)
When do we fight back? when their IRS Gestapo raids our lil’ dank apartments with SMG’s and riot gear, and stamps their boots on our necks?
If something does not change, Democrats will be hunting us like Jews within 10 years. Bank on it.
Good point. I saw and heard that when it happened.
Yes, they denied God three times.
He's going to say America is a democracy when it is a Constitutional Republic.
Oh, snap. That's "the risk". The “ultra-MAGA Republicans" are telling/teaching everybody about the nation’s REAL system of government and what that entails.
Froth and spittle.
Joedid sound quite Hitlerish tonight.
But Eva Braun never had to hold Hitler by the hand and guide him to the stage.
It was pathetic.
The polls showing Democrats doing ever better in the midterms might crater after Xiden’s bone headed speech. Remember Josef Stolen’s poll numbers tanking after he said he was getting “impatient” with unvaccinated Americans? Ball game crowds even chanted cuss words at him.
Move your cursor to find out where the folks who watched Biden last night live.
Brett Baier is another useless Anti Trumper POS
True dat.
This divisive, partisan rhetoric has the stench of Obama all over it. Which figures, since it’s really Obama and Soros pulling Biden’s strings.
Does any journalist have the nerve to ask Biden to define “Trumpism”? Apparently not.
Have you noticed that lately? Every single last democrat always says “democracy” NONE of them say “constitutional republic” because they don’t believe in the constitution.
The best thing about Biden speech was the guy with the bullhorn in the background who kept saying “F**k Joe Biden” That guy should be given a ticker tape parade and keys to the city.
Obama is behind all of this. I have no doubt.
The people are a threat to democracy, because they know I’m full of sh!t.
