Some said the remarks were “divisive.” Others said the speech was “political.” But few were willing to seriously argue that President Biden was wrong. (via MaddowBlog)
But amid the whining and partisan complaints, few were willing to make a serious case that Biden’s remarks were wrong. It was as if, for some media figures and GOP critics, it mattered less that the president was telling the truth, and more that his remarks might hurt some Republicans’ feelings.
“MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution,” the president argued. “They do not believe in the rule of law. They do not recognize the will of the people. They refuse to accept the results of a free election. And they’re working right now, as I speak, in state after state to give power to decide elections in America to partisans and cronies, empowering election deniers to undermine democracy itself.
“They look at the mob that stormed the United States Capitol on Jan. 6th — brutally attacking law enforcement — not as insurrectionists who placed a dagger to the throat of our democracy, but they look at them as patriots. And they see their MAGA failure to stop a peaceful transfer of power after the 2020 election as preparation for the 2022 and 2024 elections. They tried everything last time to nullify the votes of 81 million people.
