Republican Senator Tim Scott has a few words for president Joe Biden after the strange and dystopian speech he gave on Thursday.
Scott said, “America is the solution, not the problem,” and that “it’s time you start acting like it.”
President Joe Biden addressed the nation on Thursday and made the case that “equality and democracy are under assault.”
Uniformed Marines stood on either side of him, while red lights ominously glowed in the background.
Biden spoke on the “dangers” of Trump supporters and said that this is a “battle for the soul of the nation.” Biden said that MAGA supporters represent a threat to democracy.
“Donald Trump and the maga Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic,” Biden said.
“MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution,” he said.
“MAGA forces are determined to take the country backwards,” he said.
Scott had this to say, “On Thursday night in Philadelphia, Joe Biden used his presidential perch, flanked by two United States Marines, to give one of the most menacing and divisive campaign speeches in recent memory.”
“In his soul-crushing “soul of the nation” speech, the president threw half the country back into Hillary Clinton’s basket of deplorables. Anyone who refuses to go along with his radical agenda that’s bankrupting the country is a threat. Anyone who stands up for religious liberty is an extremist. Anyone who is a voice for voiceless and vulnerable unborn babies is a danger to democracy.”
Scott said that Biden’s illustration of the United States and its people couldn’t be more disconnected from reality.
“The truth is this speech was a feeble attempt to distract American voters from Democrats’ abysmal record heading into the midterms.”
“President Biden and Democrats across the country are hoping they can get voters to believe what they say, rather than what they can see with their own two eyes.”
Scott also addressed the blatant lies and that Biden glossed over important factual points.
“You see, according to him migrants aren’t illegally flooding into our country every day. Never mind the fact that we see small town mayors and border patrol agents struggling to deal with the influx from record illegal crossings.”
“He says inflation is at zero. But we see sustained record-high inflation nearly reaching double digits and feel the pain of high prices at the grocery store and gas pump.”
“The president said his administration made America safer than ever.”
He reminded everyone that it was democrats that led the charge to “defund the police” and that Biden thinks that the Afghanistan withdrawal was a success.
“The pain and insecurity Americans feel under total Democrat control of Washington won’t be dulled by Biden’s political placebo. After being isolated throughout the pandemic, the remedy to our collective uncertainty and exhaustion is not to ostracize people even further.”
Scott mentioned that it’s time to stop playing up the division. He said that America needs leaders and people who will tell the truth and be positive about who can be and can be.
“We are not a nation irreparably divided by race, class, ideology, and gender. We are a nation bonded together by our uniquely American values of freedom, opportunity, and redemption.”
“In the story of America, I believe our best chapters have yet to be written.”
Scott ended, by saying that America is the solution, not the problem.
