Will the Real Dictator Please Stand Up?—If He’s Able
President Biden routinely misrepresents Donald Trump as a dictator, but the evidence shows convincingly that it’s Biden who acts in dictatorial fashion
There’s an old trial lawyers’ saying: “When the facts are on your side, pound the facts. When the law is on your side, pound the law. When neither is on your side, pound the table.” That may be the only thing President Biden learned in law school—from which he was almost expelled for plagiarizing. He said the plagiarizing was due to ignorance; he had simply misunderstood the need to cite sources carefully.
Now, fifty-nine years later, Biden routinely misrepresents Trump. While talking about the auto industry, Trump said, “We’re going to put a 100 percent tariff on every single car that comes across the [Mexico-US] line, and you’re not going to be able to sell those cars if I get elected. Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath, for the whole—that’s going to be the least of it. It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country.”
Biden’s campaign quickly accused, and has continued to accuse, Trump of fomenting “political violence.” The Trump campaign said Trump was clearly using the term in the context of an economic bloodbath, and that is obvious to anyone who reads Trump’s remarks.
Even so, Biden campaign spokesperson Sarafina Chitika said: “The Trump campaign can try to spin all they want, but the context is clear: their candidate has spent every moment since his first campaign encouraging and excusing political violence. Repeatedly. It’s not a bug; it’s a feature of Donald Trump’s extremism. We take Trump at his word—and voters will too.” I.e., “Don’t bother us with the truth!”
And then at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner (which Trump refused to attend when he was president), President Biden made a remark he had made before: “[Donald Trump] has said he wants to be a dictator on day one.” Biden’s implication is, obviously, that Trump wants to be a dictator from day one. Trump even explained his remark, for those capable of understanding explanations: “We are closing the border and we are drilling, drilling, drilling. After that, I am not a dictator, OK?”
About Biden, we should ask, as attorney Joseph Welsh did of Senator McCarthy during the infamous army hearings in 1954, “You’ve done enough. Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?” Biden’s answer, obviously, would be no.
