In his first primetime address to the nation Thursday night, President Biden lobbed barely-conceal criticism at Donald Trump for his handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
“A year ago, we were hit with a virus that was met with silence and spread unchecked, denials for days, weeks then months — that led to more deaths, more infections, more stress, and more loneliness,” the president said. “We lost faith in whether our government and our democracy can deliver on really hard things for the American people.”
Without ever naming the last administration, Biden highlighted issues over which Trump has been criticized, like the importance of wearing a mask and “listening to the science” in deciding how to best reopen the economy.
“A mask, the easiest thing to do to save lives, sometimes it divides us, states pit it against one another instead of working with each other,” he noted, nodding to the recent decision by Republican-led states to lift coronavirus restrictions, including mask mandates.
Biden encouraged Americans to listen to the advice issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in continuing to wear masks “to save lives.”
Trump’s refusal to wear a mask until several months into the pandemic was an issue Biden was critical of throughout the presidential race.
Biden called Dr. Anthony Fauci “one of the most distinguished and trusted voices in the world.” The comment was a contrast to those made by Trump, who was sometimes a sharp critic of Fauci, the top doctor on his White House Coronavirus Task Force.
Biden suggested Americans were not getting honesty from Trump, reflecting on a visit he made to a small business owner in Philadelphia last summer.
“Looking me right in the eye she said, ‘I just want the truth’,” he said, describing what she said she needed most to help her through the pandemic.
“My fellow Americans, you’re owed nothing less than the truth,” the president added.
Biden noted that when he entered office, only eight percent of people 65 and up had received their first shot, contrasting that with the numbers who have gotten the vaccine under his presidency.
The vaccines had only recently been made available when Biden assumed office
Biden highlighted how since entering the White House he has been working with Pfizer, Moderna and John & Johnson to “manufacture and purchase hundreds of millions of doses” of vaccines — meaning 65 percent of elderly people have received the coronavirus vaccine in the last two months.
Trump could not be immediately reached by Fox News for comment.
President Joe BIden accusing Trump of being untruthful is the height of irony.
Biden is battling dementia.
He’s being told what to do and say through an earpiece by Susan Rice, Valerie Jarrett, and Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm).
Biden and his staff, including his Press Secretary, Jen Psaki, lie like rugs.
Biden did not originate the drive for vaccinations.
President Donald J. Trump did.
BIden took his vaccination before he even took office.
Operation Warp Speed has exceeded expectations, while all Biden did last night is attempt to falsely seek praise and recognition for “being responsible” for the success of the COVID-19 Vaccines while attempting to trash his predecessor.
Why? Because he is a doddering dementia-riddled old man and his Handlers and the rest of the Democrats are scared of Donald J. Trump.
On June 29th of last year, I asked the following question…
“Why are the Democrats pushing so hard to mandate that an entire nation of free individuals be required to wear masks, as if we were under the rule of the ones responsible for this pandemic, Communist China?
Make no mistake, I believe that the pandemic was/is real.
However, I also believe, just like the riots, that the Far Left Democrats have a political purpose behind their response to COVID-19.
Gentle readers, do you all remember the story about the frog in a pot of water on the stove?
If you slowly adjust the temperature of the water until it reaches the boiling point, the frog will stay in that pot of water until it is boiled alive.
The Far Left Democrats are “testing the waters” to see if they can control a free nation of people like Lenin, Stalin, and Mao controlled the Soviet Union and Communist China.
That is why President Trump left it up to the states in the first place. And, why he is trying to open America back up for business again.
Our American Freedom was paid for through the sacrifices made by courageous men and women.
It was won and it has been maintained at much too dear a cost to lose it by Americans cowering and freely giving it up “to purchase a little temporary safety”.”
The Democrats are now seeing that average Americans are sick of them controlling our lives.
And, Biden’s morose speech last night was all about them “maintaining control” of us.
Joe…we will celebrate the 4th of July with our family and friends like Americans always have.
You can’t take away our FREEDOM.
It was given to us by OUR CREATOR.
Until He Comes,
KJ
