This won’t end well.
Did you see any of the clips from Herr Biden’s demagogic speech targeting the unvaccinated Thursday?
I myself couldn’t bear to watch the whole thing. In that respect, I think I’m a lot like many of the White House staffers who put him on mute when he’s talking out of fear that he’s going to ram his foot into his mouth so far, he gets athlete’s tongue.
Though for me, it’s because I get that same mixture of disgust and pity one feels when one sees an elderly man who just wet his pants and is weeping in shame.
But I did see enough of it to know that Biden’s handlers decided the best way to get people to stop focusing on what a terrible job he’s doing as president is to pit the vaccinated against the unvaccinated, all the while painting the unvaccinated as the dirty, good-for-nothing wastes of skin everyone should direct their anger toward.
I’m sure that sounded better in the original German.
The CDC estimated that approximately 120 million have been infected with COVID and recovered. The science, if we’re really going to follow the science, says that those infected and recovered from COVID have natural immunity to the virus. In fact, research shows that natural immunity offers greater protection from COVID than the vaccine does.
Targeting the unvaccinated without taking into account the sheer number of Americans who have developed natural antibodies is anti-science.
Then again, science isn’t driving this bus; political expedience is.
Joe Biden’s presidency has been an utter failure both domestically and internationally. His poll numbers are cratering and his approval rating is underwater. But the one area where his polling is not underwater is on his handling of COVID. Yes, it’s dropped double-digits since earlier this year, but he is still above fifty percent. So he’s doubling down on COVID hoping to increase those approval numbers even more to drag his overall approval out from under water. And in order to do that, Joe has decided to give those supporters someone other than himself to be angry at. And he’s chosen the unvaccinated.
Biden likes to brag that he is a “student of history.”
Well, if he was a “student of history,” he must’ve done just as badly there as he did in law school.
Because history tells us when the powerful single out one group of people for anger and derision, it does not end well.
Biden singled out the unvaccinated fourteen times in his speech – going so far as to say “This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated.”
He accused them of overcrowding the hospitals “leaving no room for someone with a heart attack, or pancreitis [sic], or cancer.”
Those dirty unvaccinated are killing the Good People!!!
After spending all that time telling us that it is the unvaccinated who are getting hospitalized and dying, he then declared “We’re going to protect vaccinated workers from unvaccinated coworkers.”
Really? If the vaccinated are protected because they, you know, got the vaccine, what danger do the unvaccinated pose to them? It’s the pandemic of the unvaccinated, after all. Those vaccinated Good People are not at risk. You told us so yourself, Il Dementia.
But he’s targeting the unvaccinated. And in order to do that logic, science, reason and common sense go out the window. This is about ginning up fear and resentment toward one group of Americans by another group of Americans. If we’re too busy attacking each other, we won’t pay any attention to the failure that is the Biden Presidency.
Which is why he also accused the unvaccinated of undoing the progress his administration has made in rescuing the economy.
”Because of our vaccination program and the American Rescue Plan, which we passed early in my administration, we’ve had record job creation for a new administration, economic growth unmatched in 40 years. We cannot let unvaccinated do this progress — undo it, turn it back.”
Are you fucking kidding me?
You know, it’s one thing to blame Trump for your failures, quite another to blame ordinary Americans who, for whatever reason, have not gotten vaccinated.
Forget the flagrant lies in this statement. This son of a bitch is actually setting up the unvaccinated to take the blame for his economic failures.
If Joe Biden really wanted economic growth, he wouldn’t have ordered the Federal Government to levy fines against companies that refuse to require employees to get vaccinated. If he cared about jobs, he wouldn’t create an environment where those who do not wish to get vaccinated (or have no reason to get vaccinated because they already have natural immunity) are fired from their jobs.
Targeting the unvaccinated like they’re an undesirable class is something I never thought I would see from an American president. It is scary as hell. And if Joe Biden really is the student of history that he claims to be, he would know that this is not going to end at all well.
