Biden Blasts 'MAGA Crowd': 'Most Extreme Political Organization' in US History
By: Charlie McCarthy
Never in my life in politics have I ever been more proud to be an active member of the MAGA movement. Biden’s ridiculous and mean spirited put downs are actually a badge of honor wear proudly and defiantly. We need to keep MAGA rallies in his face confronting his policies and failures. Let’s go Brandon!
Biden Blasts 'MAGA Crowd': 'Most Extreme Political Organization' in US History
President Joe Biden on Wednesday called former President Donald Trump's Make America Great Again movement "the most extreme political organization in American history."
Biden mentioned MAGA often while making a statement at the White House about the economy. In doing so, he appeared eager to compare his progressive policies to the MAGA agenda.
After his statement, Biden was asked about next steps regarding abortion after Chief Justice John Roberts on Tuesday confirmed the authenticity of a leaked draft opinion suggesting the Supreme Court might be poised to overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade case that legalized abortion nationwide.
Biden began his answer by recalling being Senate Judiciary Committee chairman during Supreme Court confirmation hearings for Robert Bork in 1987. Biden then returned his focus to MAGA.
"This MAGA crowd is really the most extreme political organization that's existed in American history, in recent American history,” Biden said.
Before making that comment, Biden said the leaked opinion "is a lot more than about abortion."
"This reminds me about the debate with Robert Bork," the president said. "Bork believed the only reason you had any inherent rights is because the government gave them to you.
"The idea that somehow there is no inherent right, that there is no right of privacy."
If the Supreme Court strikes down Roe v. Wade, abortion laws would return to the states, prompting Biden to ponder other possibilities.
"What happens if you have states change the law saying that children who are LBGTQ can’t be in classrooms with other children?" he asked. "Is that legit under the way that the decision is written? What are the next things that are going to be attacked?"
During a nine-minute statement in which he touted his economic policy proposals, Biden mocked the "Rescue America" plan offered by Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla.
Scott put together a 31-page plan for Republicans to use as a blueprint should they take control of the Senate and House in the midterm elections.
"It's extreme, as most MAGA things are," Biden said. "It will actually raise taxes on 75 million American families, over 95% of whom make less than $100,000 a year.
"This extreme Republican agenda calls for Congress … I’m not making this up, either … requires a vote, if it were to pass, every five years the Congress would have to vote to reinstate or eliminate Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid."
The nations village idiot has spoken and as usual is wrong and delusional. MAGA again!
The nations village idiot waddled out of the White House on 1/20/21
"Never in my life in politics have I ever been more proud to be an active member of the MAGA movement. Biden’s ridiculous and mean spirited put downs are actually a badge of honor wear proudly and defiantly. We need to keep MAGA rallies in his face confronting his policies and failures. Let’s go Brandon!"
What exactly is the "MAGA movement"? Sounds like a case of purely liquid diarrhea, a really nasty bowel movement.
Make America Great Again! A tough concept for a secular progressive to fully comprehend and understand. It’s an alien concept to them. There is nothing more alien to the bicoastal urban elites than putting the interests of the working and middle class along with Main Street small independent business people first in their consideration or the energy and manufacturing jobs in the heartland of the country. Of course an elitist ass like the President would think it extreme to put America first.
Why do you always answer with just a bunch of random nonsense talking points and gobbledygook?
I think because it reminds people of when Americans worked to make things better for themselves and the country. A time when the government worked for the people and reacted to what WE wanted. There was very little indecision. With this current administration, all we see is indecision.
How did they plan to make AMERICA great again, by overthrowing the duly elected leader of AMERICA? By "great" does MAGA people mean a authoritative dictatorship where a minority gets to appoint the country's leader?
Like Obamacare, Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security? All of which republicans have stated their desire to eliminate?
You mean like what was tried from 2016 to 2020?
That you don’t like the manner in which I express who or what I believe in is of absolutely no concern whatsoever to me.
It never stopped being great. No matter who the president was or who controlled the House or Senate, it has never stopped being great.
Or maybe their "great" just looks a little different than yours.
You're right, they've not done well with that, and appear almost clueless about how to address any of those concerns from a 21st-century perspective. That doesn't mean this isn't a great country, and one of the last truly free societies on earth.
Their version was ok because they did it and they are allowed different standards than actual real Americans are.
I was going to ask you that very same question. And in your case nonsense and gobbledygook actually does accurately describe your comments.
You might want to ask clintonistas that since that is exactly what they tried to do in 2016
No by lowering taxes and enticing companies to bring back manufacturing and other jobs back to this country. By raising tariffs on goods produced in countries hostile to ours and make our goods more affordable. By lowering taxes for all. By nominated and confirming three excellent Supreme Court Justices. By making the country energy independent and a mean exporter of gas and oil. By closing the border to illegal aliensand deporting those illegals already judged to be here illegally and told to leave. By putting American interests first when negotiating with foreign countries.
I think that you are exactly right here.
All so very well said….
[DELETED] Why bother responding at all?
Which has failed, over and over and over and over. Lowering taxes on the rich and corporation, causing the middle class to pick up the slack.
Really? Manufacturing was beginning to come back wages were increasing employment was up. Minority employment was the highest in 50 years. This was all the case until we the pandemic hit and the left panicked and issued decrees to close workplaces and lock everyone in there homes.
Exactly what am I lying about? Is that not what happened? Did Democrats not lose in 2016 and concoct the "Russia Collusion" hoax and proceed to "investigate" a duly elected President in a failed attempt to remove him from office?
No.
So prove me wrong then.
Right back at ya XX!
Your opinions means shit!
"Did Democrats not lose in 2016 and concoct the "Russia Collusion" hoax and proceed to "investigate" a duly elected President in a failed attempt to remove him from office?"
And they say we're peddling conspiracy theories. . . . .
It's hard to hold a conversation with those living in some alternate delusional reality. Always asking to be proven wrong of their batshit insanity. . . . .
Were you asleep for 4 years?
Have y'all been in a coma for four years?
Youve been proven wrong more times than anyone can count. Democrats did not cause Donald Trump to be investigated , either by the FBI or by Mueller.
Why no, no "we" haven't. We witnessed the bullshit that Jeremy described above. Perhaps you missed it.......let me help you out.
So your answer is NO you can't prove me wrong.
I see no extremism in want to make and keep America great. The left would have us become just a mediocre average country or worse.
Sadly they want much worse for our country.
I see no extremism in that either though I will openly mock and ridicule those who do so.
So it's an organization now. When did that happen? Who are the local leaders?
Inquiring minds want to know!
Being a registered right leaning Independent, I was never really that much of a Trump fan. But in the last two years I have definitely become anti Biden. He has become the greatest gift to the American conservative voters in recent history.
Didn't you get the memo? We're not allowed to be Independent... we are either in the far-left echo chamber or we are Trumpists... there is no in-between allowed (according to some on this board).
I just look at what people say over time. [deleted]

You are a shrewd judge of peoples political beliefs, well honed from years of experience.
Yep. Nothing like repeatedly trying to tar all with the same brush. It's so much easier that way!
Yeah. Y'all NEVER do that!
I never said otherwise did I, but certainly not to the extent done here by the left.
So it would seem….
The most extreme political organization that's existed in American history has been the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party did everything possible to protect the institution of slavery. The Democratic Party really did divide the country and really did use the most extreme violence to defend Democrats' control over government and the country, as a whole.
Got any new material that isn't sixty years past due?
No, Democrats are aware and honest about their history both before and after 1964...
Is it any wonder that the once Grand Old Party of Abraham Lincoln is now known merely as the gop?
Only to other hard core leftist liberals....
Those are the only ones who ever buy into that nonsense…
Democrats are dividers to this day. They really did justify months of violence and destruction across big urban America.
