WaPo’s Eugene Robinson: Biden Speech an ‘Urgent Wartime Address’
Breitbart ^ | 09/02/2022 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 09/02/2022 7:41:05 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Friday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson heralded President Joe Biden’s speech in Philadelphia the night earlier as an “urgent wartime address.”

According to Robinson, it was “significant” that Biden called out his predecessor and “MAGA Republicans.

“The speech last night to me sounded like a president delivering a wartime address,” he said. “And indeed, Joe Biden sees this as a battle for the soul of our country. It’s a battle for the preservation of our democracy. To me, the significant thing was, yes, he called out Donald Trump — but he also called out the MAGA Republicans, the MAGA Republican officials and followers, who, for whatever motive, under whatever delusion, are going down this authoritarian path, this undemocratic path and trying to take the nation with them. And he framed this as an emergency, as something that we as a nation need to bond together and to stop, to reverse and to return to our democratic principles and our democratic practices, and to me, it was an urgent wartime address.”

The only battle Joe’s fighting is with his diaper.

Can I ask a stupid question?

How does it threaten democracy, etc. if people vote for Republicans? If the Democrats are so big on “democracy”, what is more “democratic” than candidates winning an election and serving in office?

Or are they saying that you have to be a good Democrat to be legitimately elected to office?????

For the first time in US history, Joseph Stolen declared war against all Americans that disagree with his twisted WEF vision for the world. Challenge accepted.

Oh my God! There’s their talking point. The minions really are trying to lay it in thick.

I sure hope we are prepared for what comes next.

Anyone here want to be a Mainstream Republican with the likes of Liz Cheney and the Lincoln Project?
Yeah, me neither!

He would like nothing more.

Yep and he ain’t the only one.
I think last nights speech was a declaration of war on all things MAGA & Trump.
How many references to F-15s in the past few months? And now to prove his point, he shows us & the world he is backed by the US military, in the person of The Marine Corp.

Welcome to Post-Constitutional America

After watching RINOs in the 2020 stolen election and NO backlash against China, Dominion, and democRAT vote-stealing cities, I think I know what comes next for us:

A wartime address??

*************

It was evidence of panic and desperation.

Despite Republican weakness, incompetence and the complete lack of a constructive agenda the Dems are still facing big loses in November.

It certainly has a Hunger Games/V for Vendetta/hitlerish/Stalinesque look to it. Kari Lake from AZ called it out pretty damn well. 🤔🚫🐎💩

Same old democRAT template; Joe Biden accusing his opponents of everything he and his cohorts are doing.

I don’t get it either. After all, the Republicans don’t stand for anything so how can they be a threat? ;)
