Biden Speaks to the Canadian Parliament, It Does Not Go Well
Joe Biden was in Ottawa to talk with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other Canadian leaders about “irregular migration” (translation: “illegal immigration” and climate change, among other matters.
As we reported, he was quite the hypocrite, tooling around in a massive gas-guzzling SUV motorcade while claiming to care about climate change. He joked that he would be staying in Canada, and we all wished it was true. But when he sat down for a meeting with Trudeau for the obligatory photo-op prior to their meeting where you just give perfunctory remarks, he was caught by the media desperately searching for his note cards, for even those simple remarks as Trudeau was speaking and greeting him.
Unfortunately, it can get worse. He then went on to the Parliament to speak there—and you know that was going to be an issue.
Biden met Pierre Poilievre, a Conservative Party leader, who said he was part of the “loyal opposition,” a term we use as well to describe the folks who aren’t currently in power in the government.
“We believe that opposition is an act of loyalty in our system,” Poilievre said.
Biden’s response says so much. “We do too, unfortunately,” Biden said. It’s “unfortunate” to him that anyone would dare oppose him or have different political positions. He has shown repeatedly he doesn’t like being challenged.
But, that was just the lead-up to his remarks and frankly, there were so many weird and stumbling moments, I’m just going to concentrate on the highlights. Who is it behind the scenes who thinks it’s a good idea, at this point, to be sending this guy out—and keep embarrassing himself and us? Please reconsider and get him to resign.
He started by speaking in a foreign language to recognize the French part of Canada, which didn’t go too badly considering he generally has problems with basic English. This probably was his best moment; it was all downhill from there.
He told a weird story about what an “inflection point” was.
If I were trying to understand what it was after that description, I think I’d still be confused. You can see the Canadians listening, and one has to wonder what they were thinking when he was going off like that.
He spoke about some of the green energy nonsense that both he and Trudeau were pushing, and he did that bizarre, creepy whispering thing for the Canadians as he spoke about electric charging stations.
Biden also spoke about Americans and Canadians going back and forth across the border in their “automo—zero emission vehicles!”
What is that? A new invention from the fertile confusion of Joe Biden.
When he moved on to his remarks about the border, he said that they were “seeking asylum seekers.” This is like when he encouraged people to “surge” to the border.
How are you discouraging illegal immigration, when you say things like that? As it is, most of the “asylum seekers” are not true asylum seekers; they’re economic migrants looking to come to the U.S. to make money.
Then he spoke about China. He started screaming that shtick he has about China and telling Xi Jinping on the “Tibetan plateau” that one word that describes America.
Calm down, Joe, screaming doesn’t make any sense here. It just looks ridiculous. But, at least he didn’t say this about that “one word” this time.
But, I think there’s no question that the hands-down worst moment was when Biden said, “I applaud China.”
He had to correct himself, but they laughed at him, and he didn’t cover very well. “You can tell when I’m thinking.”
The problem is that he isn’t thinking, he’s just reading off the teleprompter. But that’s where we’re at with Joe. And perhaps it wasn’t a mistake; maybe China is on his mind given the Biden family connections that are being investigated right now by the House Oversight Committee. It must be weighing on his mind, because he knows that he’s lied—and it’s all likely to come out now.
Joe Biden is in Ottawa, Canada, embarrassing himself and us before the Canadians and the world. We wrote about some of his earlier meetings, as well as his gaffe-ridden remarks before Parliament where he called for applauding China before he corrected himself.
He then did a press conference that was long on lies and exaggeration, with some disturbing answers.
He started, as usual, with a pre-approved list of the people to call on.
It doesn’t start well.
If you listen to his answers, he lives in a fantasy world where — presented with evidence — nothing is as bad as anyone else says, and he downplays every issue. Why? I think because he thinks he’s being challenged, something he always has a problem with. But it’s also frightening, disturbing ignorance that endangers us all.
Listen as he downplays the worrying, increased alliance between China and Russia. This is scary that he’s so clueless.
He says they’re the “ones expanding alliances,” even as Saudi Arabia moves closer to Iran with the aid of China, and we’re under attack from Iranian proxies. He asks what commitment China and Russia can make, and the reporter has to tell him they’ve just increased their trade.
“Their trade has increased compared to what,” Joe shouts. Um, Joe? Compared to what it was before?
He says people “vastly exaggerate” the issue. He tries to justify downplaying it by saying that China hasn’t given any weapons to Russia [for the Ukraine War] yet, and he does that creepy whisper again. Yes, let’s just sleep over here until the weapons are exchanged—talking about gender equity—as our adversaries plot.
Just a quick search indicates that China has provided Russia with $12 million in drones since it invaded Ukraine. Does Biden even know that?
Did Joe even see this, and does he understand what it means?
They’re plotting the end of U.S. dominance, which you can already see by China’s efforts with Saudi Arabia and Iran, seeking to be the global power that the U.S. has been.
Biden was asked in the press conference about the bank collapses and again, he downplayed the issue, not understanding how his policies lead to the inflation—and then the higher fed rates that contributed to the problem.
I’m thinking Biden saying everything is all right is a little bit like Jim Cramer claiming it’s going to be okay. That is not reassuring.
He also lied about illegal immigration.
I don’t know what he’s talking about here about “dedicated pathways,” because the numbers have been at record highs for some time. Biden and his team just seem clueless on the subject.
Joe thought he could escape by saying he had to go to dinner.
Who is telling him what to do? He’s supposed to be the most powerful man in the world. Yet, he always sounds like he has handlers behind the scenes dictating to him.
But, the reporters tried to slip in a few more questions.
He ignored a question about why he is delaying the Enbridge oil pipeline project.
I’m not even sure he knows what they’re talking about there. But again, it’s his anti-energy policies.
They tossed a final question about the Iran proxy attacks and whether he was going to do anything after the killing of an American, wounding six other Americans, on top of 78 prior attacks.
His response was, “We’re not going to stop.” That doesn’t even make sense. Stop what? The question was: are you going to do anything affirmatively to stop Iran and their proxies, or are you just going to continue to play defense and retaliate a little?
But, at least he didn’t get lost trying to get off the stage — with the assistance of Trudeau, who had all the look of a caretaker there.
