I was unable to watch Biden’s State of the Union speech live in Thailand, but I did listen to parts of it afterwards. And best I could tell, J. D. Vance had the right idea—boycott it because listening to lies can make one immune to them.
But that’s not really the main point here. SOTU is just a speck in time. We knew, preceding the event, that Biden would make a campaign speech—Ukraine, abortion, transgenderism, Trump is Hitler—and attempt to boost his failing administration as much as possible. And attack Republicans. That is all Biden ever does. Anybody who expected him to tell the truth—“yeah, our country is going to hell in a handbasket and I’m to blame for it”—is obviously more delusional than even Biden himself has become.
Here is how I read SOTU and recent Biden antics.
1. Joe Biden has become a bitter old man, full of hate. It oozes from him. He absolutely hates Republicans because they won’t do what he tells them to do (Mike Johnson might). He loathes everybody who doesn’t agree with him, and who won’t submit to his vision of a new, radical, immoral globalist America. He hates you. And he thinks you are stupid, and that you can’t see through his lies. What a “leader.”
Now, this isn’t news, we all know this, but it is a serious problem for America. Some elderly people—not all, but some—do get very selfish, petulant, and bitter in their old age. They don’t have much time left on this earth and, often, they will revert to childishness and selfishness. They want their way on everything, and when they don’t get it, they become angry, bitter, and despitefully lash out at those whom they think are denying them the toys they crave. My late, dear father, who was a good man and one whom I dearly loved, became like this, and so has my older brother. They both were (are) intolerable, mean, hateful, and selfish when they didn’t (don’t) get their wishes. All people need to practice self-control, especially a country’s leaders. Joe Biden has no self-discipline because he is a less-than-mediocre human being. Putting this bitter, hate-filled old man into the White House is one of the worst mistakes the American people have ever made.

2. We saw in the SOTU his campaign strategy, which again was not surprising. He will ceaselessly attack Trump; that’s to be expected, that’s politics. Trump will reciprocate. But Biden’s strategy is a little deeper than that, and it’s a horrible tactic for the nation. His plan is to divide and conquer. He has no design, no intention, no thought of how, or of even trying to unite America, to find SOME common ground with Republicans and those who don’t accept everything he believes in. The only thing Biden wants from Republicans is for them to give him everything he wants and submit to him. He has no objective of trying to unite America. He is only a divider. What unifying message did he present in SOTU? There was none. It was “believe me or you’re a Nazi,” not unifying. He wants you submissive.
3. And herein is a significant difference between Biden and Trump. Trump DOES have a unifying message Americans can rally around: America First, Make America Great Again. Americans will never agree on everything, but Mr. Trump hopes we can at least agree on this one very important matter—to again make America the greatest, strongest country on earth. That is something every patriotic American ought to be able to rally around. It was the message Ronald Reagan preached, with tremendous success, for eight years. Trump is returning to it. It’s something that ought to unify the nation in this cruel, increasingly dangerous world.
But the problem is, the Democratic Party has created so many people in America who hate the country, who believe that the United States is the greatest hell on earth, and that Donald Trump is the Devil who reigns over it. Mr. Trump has the right idea—let’s bring America together as a great country again. But Joe Biden and the Democrats no longer want that. They DON’T WANT THAT! So, Trump is the great enemy who must be destroyed.
The only unifying message Biden has is, “Donald Trump and the America he represents are Adolf Hitler and Nazism.” Biden wants to “unite” America on that theme. How could he be more divisive?
It is imperative to remember that the current Democratic Party is a globalist party—“citizen of the world” in Obama’s phrase—and hates the history of America. They blame America for so many of the current world’s ills, and traditional America must be obliterated from the earth. They try to couch it in “democracy” and certain pro-American rhetoric. But they only fool the already convinced. The battle in 2024 is truly over what kind of America we are going to have in the future.
There was nothing new in Biden’s SOTU. It was what we should have expected from a bitter, hate-filled, senile old man. We knew in advance what Biden would say and it will all be meaningless tomorrow. The only remaining campaign issue that is interesting to Americans is, are the Democrats going to stick with Biden? It looks increasingly likely they will. The farther we get into 2024, the more difficult it will be to remove him. They can, of course, dump him in the summer, but that will look bad to change horses so close to the election, although it might not make any difference in the outcome. Still, it would be a touchy thing to remove him so close to November.
I don’t hate Joe Biden, but I hate what he does and what he is trying to do to my country. And I’m going to expose him for what he really is.
