The Ruling Elites Redefined Character in order to Elect Joe Biden

On August 20, 2020 Joe Biden accepted the Democrat party’s nomination for president by fatuously declaring, “Character and decency are on the ballot.” Thus, directly proclaiming himself and the Democrat party as the paragons of character and decency as compared to the “vile” Donald Trump and the “racialist” Make America Great Again movement.

A claim which is an unfathomable stretch of the imagination, considering Joe Biden’s long and well-known history of corruption and his uncontrollable penchant for being a serial fabulist and compulsive liar. To run on this platform required not only unbridled audacity but also lockstep conformity in the regime media’s coverage of Biden but also a requisite redefinition of character and decency by the entirety of the ruling class.

Wallowing in their ever-growing abandonment of integrity, the regime media and the rest of the ruling elites were well aware of Biden’s history of duplicity and dishonesty as well as his current mental deficiencies. Nonetheless, they rallied around a common cause and swung into action by transforming corruption into propriety, mendacity into guilelessness and arrogance into humility. Thus, “Lunch Bucket Joe” was the epitome of “character and decency” who would single-handedly restore America.

It was not only the Democrat elites in lockstep with this deception and mythical mantra but virtually everyone in the Republican wing of the ruling class as well, including media figures such as Bill Kristol and George Will and their compatriot and fellow neo-conservative at The New York Times, David Brooks.

In August of 2019, Brooks in an interview about Joe Biden’s obvious mental decline and penchant for fabrication, claimed that Joe “is not mendacious, he is not irresponsible. He may embellish a story to improve its dramatic effect. Our memories are just more fallible than we think.”

You would have to bastardize the term so badly that it meant nothing, because Slo-Joe has no character. And what character he has is poor.
