LOS ANGELES.–President Joe Biden, 81, slammed 77-year-old President Donald Trump for meeting with 60-year-old Hungarian President Viktor Orban, all because Biden calls him a dictator, the same thing he does with 71-year-old President Vladimir Putin. If Orban were really a dictator as Biden says, does he think Hungary would be a member of the European Union and NATO? “You know who he’s meeting with today down in Mar-a-Lago?, Biden asked a campaign event in Pennsylvania. “Orban of Hungary, who states flatly he doesn’t think democracy works, he’s looking for dictatorship,” Biden said, the same kind of hyperbole that has the U.S. in a unending proxy war against the Russian Federation. Biden can’t get along with U.S. adversaries, like Russia and China, now has the U.S. committed for the indefinite future to subsidizing Ukraine’s Kiev bankrupt government at a cost of over $200 billion.
Biden’s 2024 campaign theme was on full display in the highly political State-of-the-Union Speech, telling a joint session of Congress that Putin is on the march in Europe, poised to start invading other EU countries. Biden’s claptrap is all rubbish to justify in ongoing war that threatens the EU and NATO with perpetual war on the European Continent. Biden’s campaign strategy is to reprise former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s failed 2016 campaign against Trump, accusing Trump of colluding with the Kremlin. Nearly two years of investigations costing Special Counsel Robert Mueller $40 million proved that Trump had no such inappropriate ties to the Kremlin. When Trump was president, the U.S. was not in a proxy war against the Kremlin. Reelecting Biden would continue he reckless and costly Ukraine proxy war against the Kremlin.
Biden’s campaign message, like Hillary, is that Trump wants to turn the U.S. into a dictatorship, something so preposterous it’s hard to imagine he can sell such nonsense. In 2020, Biden sold the public on the idea that Trump had blown management of the Covid-19 pandemic, causing unnecessary deaths in the United States. Voters were so panic stricken watching their neighbors get sick and die they believed Biden’s rubbish. So, why not trying the same disinformation and propaganda again? It worked then, why wouldn’t in work now? Well, for one thing, Biden is the main focus of the early campaign, scolding the country in a 67-minute diatribe, literally screaming at a joint session of Congress, putting on full display his age-related cognitive decline. Biden’s nonsense about Trump seeking dictatorship shows his desperate attempt to discredit Trump’s 2024 campaign.
Biden’s hostility toward Russia and Communist China has all but wrecked generations of U.S. diplomacy and pragmatic working relations. Instead of being cooperative partners, Biden drove Russia and China into an economic, military and strategic partnership against the United States. Any U.S. elected officials knows it’s in the U.S. national security interest to get along with U.S. adversaries. Whatever dispute exists between Ukraine and Russia, the U.S. has its own foreign policy to run, trying to maintain the post-WW II order that has kept the peace for 80 years. Now Biden has the U.S. in a proxy war against the Kremlin, supplying Ukraine all the cash-and-arms to keep war going indefinitely on the European Continent. Biden says, if reelected, he will continue his war against the Kremlin until Putin is driven out of Ukraine, something that won’t happen.
Biden doesn’t listen to his own generals or those of 46-year-old Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky who have told them both that there is no military solution in Ukraine. Yet if you listened to the State-of-the-Union speech Biden claimed that Putin has turned into Hitler in 1939, picking off various European countries. Biden’s Hitler-Putin comparison won the biggest applause line in the speech, showing that some members of Congress share Biden’s delusion about Putin. Putin wants the U.S. to stop supplying lethal weapons to Ukraine that threatens Russian national security. Biden refused for months before the Feb. 24 invasion to negotiate with Putin new security arrangements for Ukraine. Instead to talking to Putin, Biden kept supplying Ukraine with dangerous weapons, prompting Putin to invade. Biden called it “unprovoked and unjustified.”
Biden repeats the White House talking points about Trump that he’s meeting with Viktor Orban, another dictator in Europe. If Orban were really a dictator, do you think Hungary would be an active member in good standing of the EU and NATO? Asked a question about Orban meeting with Trump at Mar-a-Lago was a problem, Biden spreads his disinformation. “If I’m not, you should be,” Biden said, whether voters should be concerned. Voters should be concerned about Joe’s warmongering with Putin that could lead at anytime to WW III or nuclear war in Europe. Instead of challenging Biden’s failure to get along with U.S. adversaries, the Democrat-controlled press continues to push for full-scale war with Russia. If Biden is given four more years the U.S. could find itself fighting a two-front world war, one in Europe and the other in Taiwan fighting Communist China.
