The increasingly far-left movement, of the formerly moderate Democratic Party, has created a situation in which the proverbial “center aisle” has disappeared in Congress.
In blaring examples of hypocrisy, the left has been mocking former President Trump for promoting the Big Lie. Yes, a few of their party’s leaders have been promoting their own Big Lie for several years with other Democratic support.
- Hillary Clinton has still not accepted her loss in the 2016 Presidential election loss to President Trump. Hillary Clinton: Trump is an ‘illegitimate president’
- Stacey Abrams refused to concede the Georgia governor’s race on November 7, 2018. Last month Stacey Abrams after mocking President Trump for not conceding the 2020 Presidential election, rejected the comparison between her refusal to concede and Trump’s.
Instead of extending Trump the same opportunity to challenge his loss, the left instead has viciously attacked the former President’s challenge to the 2020 elections for over a year, accusing him of being unpatriotic for not respecting the process.
As the U.S. approaches 10 months out from the 2022 mid-term elections, President Joe Biden on Wednesday questioned the legitimacy of the 2022 midterm elections, after he also has repeatedly lectured former President Donald Trump and Republicans for casting doubts on the 2020 presidential election.
During a press conference at the White House, Biden was asked by a reporter if he believed the upcoming elections would be fair and legitimate.
“It all depends on whether or not we’re able to make the case to the American people that some of this is being set up to try to alter the outcome of the election,” Biden replied.
Biden recalled that Americans had the highest voter turnout during the 2020 election even though it was held in the middle of a pandemic.
He raised concerns that Republicans were making it more difficult for minorities to vote, calling into question the results of future elections.
“No matter how hard they make it for minorities to vote, I think you’re going see them willing to stand in line and defy the attempt to keep them from being able to vote,” Biden said.
The president conceded, however, that it would be hard to motivate Democrats to get out and vote.
“It’s going to be difficult. I make no bones about it,” he said.
When asked to clarify his comment, Biden said he was concerned about the 2022 election being faulty.
“Oh, yeah, I think it could easily be illegitimate,” he said, adding, “The increase in the prospect of being illegitimate is in proportion to not being able to get these reforms passed.”
Biden has repeatedly denounced Trump and Republicans for questioning the results of the 2020 presidential election, warning they had placed a “dagger at the throat of democracy.”
“It’s no longer about who gets to vote; it’s about making it harder to vote,” Biden said during an angry speech in Georgia. “It’s about who gets to count the vote and whether your vote counts at all. It’s not hyperbole; this is a fact.”
