In this installment of our weekly Sunday Six conversation, PF Whalen and Parker Beauregard of The Blue State Conservative examine six of Joe Biden’s most egregious lies since and the damage caused by the dishonesty.
#6: There is no border crisis, and this surge in migrants “happens every single, solitary year. Nothing has changed.”
PF: Even though categorizing a situation as a “crisis” is subjective, this assertion by Biden and his Administration is clearly a lie because anyone with the slightest level of objectivity can see how dire things are at the border. Even NBC News, which is essentially just a component of the White House’s communications team, admits as much; explaining that illegal border crossings are at a 20-year high. There are children being kept in the same ‘cages’ they accused President Trump of using, there are eight-times more migrants being detained now than at any time during Trump’s term, and all of this is happening amid a pandemic the Administration is still trying to hype as problematic. Biden and his cronies are lying through their teeth
Shouting obvious falsehoods at your citizens is bad enough for any politician, particularly for a president, but the level of damage those lies cause varies. And this one is especially concern
The border crisis can be viewed as having two distinct issues which are distressing. The first, and most obvious, is the issue of national security. The more chaos there is at the border the more likely it is our country will be infiltrated by those who would do us harm. And the second issue is the human impact. We don’t want to have people coming into our country illegally, but we also don’t want to have women and children dying and being raped on their way here, whether they’re doing so illegally or not. It’s brutal, unacceptable, and wron
When Biden pooh-poohs the happenings at the border as no big deal, and when his complicit media plays along by regurgitating those lies, he lays the groundwork for significant problems. He puts our entire country at risk for a future terrorist attack, and he enables evil to win over innocent women and children. Being weak on the border isn’t compassionate and lying about that weakness isn’t virtuous. It’s dangerous.
#5: “I have this strange notion…[that] we are a democracy…[there are] things you can’t do by executive order unless you’re a dictator. We’re a democracy. We need consensus.”
Parker: President Trump, like all human beings who interact with journalists and the public on a daily basis, faced moments of distorting reality or making a false claim. Sometimes it was for political gain and others it was a simple mistake. The media angled these speaking errors as dastardly and ruinous to the traditions of democracy and as veiled threats against the Constitution. (Somehow, the left could defend the Constitution with a straight face when referencing Trump’s supposed indifference toward the enshrined document.
Of course, had Trump paraded around with a surname like Obama or Biden, each speaking engagement would have been viewed as gospel. Lies? Untruths? Any questioning of the holy propriety must be coming from a place of racism or white supremacy. In the second “debate,” Joe Biden was asked about Trump’s use of executive orders. Now, the real answer to the framing of that question would have been, “Well, yes, Trump has used the power of executive order just like every other president before him. Next question?
Instead, in another of the idiotic and baseless appeals to the moronic masses (Stalin’s useful idiots), Biden claimed that Trump was acting like a tyrant and dictator. Never mind that he served as the vice president for a man that said if he didn’t get his way that he would merely rely on the power of his pen. Consensus is for fools and elections have consequences, isn’t that right Obama/Biden
The statement was as false, misleading, and evil as one could get. Because stupid Americans bought the Big Lie that Trump was a fascist, it played well for soundbites, but Biden’s history and now current realities belie the notion that he is anything but a dictator himself. In his first week, he set a record of signing over 40 executive orders. As of now, he has already signed a total of. What was that again about dictators?
Sure, it might be politically savvy to gin up the base and prey on lesser minds (to the tune of 80 million votes), but it is patently dishonest and damaging. What was Trump’s worst lie in office? Seriously, I’ll wait. Even before entering office, Joe Biden laid down a tall tale the likes of which were worse than anything uttered in the four years preceding him.
