Biden vs. MLK

If Martin Luther King, Jr., were alive today, I have no doubt that he would condemn President Biden and the progressive movement. Let me explain.

Biden used the Martin Luther King holiday weekend to promote the exact opposite of King’s message of genuine inclusion and tolerance. Sadly, one of Biden’s offensive speeches was even delivered at the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia – Reverend King’s own church.

Dr. King desperately wanted racial reconciliation. He wanted race to be the least important thing about us. He wanted character or moral conduct to be the most important thing about each of us.  

Biden spent every moment of the weekend stoking racial division. He and his progressive allies in academia, Hollywood, the Black Lives Matter movement and Big Media want race to be “the only thing,” and they constantly criticize anyone who raises issues of character and morality.

Here’s one example of Biden’s divisive rhetoric. While speaking to Al Sharpton’s National Action Network, Biden again attacked police officers, saying, “We have to retrain cops. Why should you always shoot with deadly force? The fact is if you need to use your weapon, you don’t have to do that.” 

Once again, Joe Biden doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He’s talking about the police as if they’re a bunch of trigger-happy yahoos. Our streets would not be safer if Joe Biden retrained cops to shoot for arms and legs, as he has suggested!

More importantly, black communities need the police. If cities are going to attract jobs and investment, you need law and order. Businesses are fleeing liberal cities right now because of crime. (Here, here and here.) Yet Biden is attacking the one institution that is most essential to revitalizing our cities.

Here’s another example of Biden’s outrageous rhetoric. He said that if someone in a “predominantly black neighborhood” had “the exact same car that I have . . . you pay more for your insurance. . . No basis for it . . . other than you’re black and I’m white.” 

Biden is the last guy who should be talking about cars right now, but his logic is absurd!

Car insurance is based on blind statistics, mainly risk. Young people pay more than middle-aged people because they are risky, inexperienced drivers. If you live in a crime-infested area, you’ll pay more than if you lived in a safer suburb because there is a greater risk of theft or vandalism.

But Joe Biden just wants to demonize insurance companies as tools of white supremacy.

Well, Democrats controlled Congress for four years during the Obama Administration and during Biden’s presidency. They did nothing about car insurance rates. Why? Because Biden is lying, and he knows it!

It’s demagoguery, pure and simple. Biden is demagoguing on the most sensitive issue our nation is wrestling with. Why would he do that? Because he thinks it helps him politically. 

I still hear some misguided Republicans say, “Joe Biden is a nice guy.” No, he isn’t! Stop saying that!
