As those few independent, honest polls have indicated, Biden\u2019s Administration may be polling in the teens with a possible total collapse on the horizon of the mid-term elections.\u00a0 <\/span>In a glorified attempt at a Democratic Pep Rally to Get Out the Vote and to save the party from a humiliating defeat on November 8<\/span>th<\/sup><\/span>, Biden\u2019s State of the Nation<\/span><\/a> speech was one last ditch effort to suppress the MAGA vote with threats of violence and name-calling as if\u00a0 <\/span>they are so easily intimidated.<\/span><\/p>\n With the intent to instill the fear of God in those white nationalists and those domestic terrorist Moms, Biden\u2019s attempt to warn them to stay home on November 8<\/span>th<\/sup><\/span> or face the consequences of being isolated in their own communities, of being tarnished and publicly branded fell flat. \u00a0 <\/span>It is Trump\u2019s base of support who will protect and preserve our American way of life with its historic Constitution and its commitment to liberty and freedom and protect the sovereignty of our southern border from an alien invasion.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Fortunately, Biden is less of an influencer than he is an actor or politician and convinced no one with his foolish malarky that it is Republicans who are threatening the country. \u00a0 <\/span>In what is obvious to any open minded, thinking citizen with a modicum of analytical skills, it is the Democrats who have revealed themselves, by their every word and deed, to be dangerous leftists\/Marxists devoted to destroying how freedom and liberty should function while living in a mass psychosis of distorted truth. \u00a0 <\/span>As if to proclaim a national crisis, citing election deniers who dare challenge the legitimacy of his claim to the White House, Biden failed in his assignment.\u00a0 <\/span>As usual, the Democrats overplayed their hand and failed to scare off MAGA and those who are now convinced how dangerous the Democrats are to the future of our country.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Before delivering his speech which began as a ludicrous staged event outside Independence Hall, even the illustrious US Marine Band sounded off key as if the music no longer conveyed the same majesty and ceremony.\u00a0 <\/span>As a gong from the tower overhead signaled the beginning of Hail to the Chief which Biden had no legal or moral right to assume ownership, the frail old man stepped forward to walk the path to the microphone where loyalist comrades awaited his arrival.\u00a0 <\/span>With the speech two months before the mid term elections and seeing it for the campaign drivel that it was, CBS, ABC and NBC did not bother to carry the speech. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n With a croaking voice and waaay out of sync with any objective reality, Biden claimed to be representing \u201cWe the People<\/i>\u201d spirit of the Founding Fathers as he wasted no time to attack former President Donald Trump and his core of MAGA supporters (Make American Great Again) as a \u2018clear and present danger to our democracy\u201d <\/i>and representing an<\/span> \u201cextremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic<\/i>.”<\/span> Clearly, Biden\u2019s accusations reveal that the Democrats have been intimidated by the political activism of the MAGA crowd which can take credit for a series of impressive Republican primary elections, the victors of which will confront the Democrats on November 8<\/span>th<\/sup><\/span>.\u00a0 <\/span>Specifically identifying election deniers as a special menace, Biden promised \u201cI will not stand by and watch\u2019<\/i> as his audience, reminiscent of a Democratic Get Out the Vote pep rally, began chanting \u201cvote, vote, vote.<\/i>\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Biden made the distinction between the MAGA crowd and that \u2018not every Republican is an extremist<\/i>\u201d citing \u2018mainstream<\/i>\u2019 Republicans who do not exhibit \u2018blind loyalty to a single leader as fatal to democracy.\u2019<\/i>\u00a0 <\/span>As if imploring the audience to take up arms against MAGA, he added \u201cit is within our hands, our power to stop this assault on democracy<\/i>\u201d as he called upon Americans to \u2018confront extremists<\/i>\u2019 and that we are not bystanders on this attack over America<\/i>.\u00a0 <\/span>While Biden cited that \u2018there is no place for political violence in America<\/i>\u201d, he failed to chastise Black Lives Matter or the Antifa thugs for their armed street fighting.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Continuing to spread divisiveness and animosity to an audience of scripted applause and phony harrahs, Biden accused MAGA of \u2018no respect for the Constitution<\/i>\u201d which does \u201cnot believe in the rule of law<\/i>\u201d just as his FBI and Department of Justice have behaved like the east German Stasi police as they broke into a former President\u2019s home in search of incriminating documents regarding Operation Crossfire<\/span><\/a> Hurricane<\/span><\/a><\/span>. <\/span>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n If it seems there is a never ending swirl of controversy around former President Donald Trump<\/span>, <\/span>that\u2019s because there is\u2026unlike any other President in modern time, every move, every thought or every policy shift is challenged with an intense focused opposition rarely seen in American politics, especially the level of opposition within his own Republican party.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n While RINO\u2019s became a household concept during Trump\u2019s Administration, Biden\u2019s speech revealed that RINO\u2019s, which he referred to as \u2018mainstream\u2019 are favored by the Democrats as they are more compatible like-minded creatures on the political landscape; they are well behaved, know their place and otherwise, are not seen as an electoral or policy threat to the Democrats.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n RINO\u2019s have long been defined as insufficiently conforming to an independent party line that is distinctly out of sync with the Democrats and have proven to generally be status quo thinkers with little interest in accountability or transparency; they will rock no boat on behalf of the party\u2019s shifting ideology that brought Trump into the White House.\u00a0 <\/span>Rarely taking a policy position that benefit their constituents, many RINO\u2019s achieve powerful positions by the fluke of seniority as the global roundtable introduces them to the same techno-economic elitists that the Democrats pay homage to; thereby creating a genuine uniparty. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Currently with the 2022 election on the horizon as numerous popularly-elected Make America Great Again candidates will be on the November 8<\/span>th<\/sup><\/span> ballot, the RINO\u2019s are now in a particularly awkward predicament revealing where their loyalties lie – with the uniparty or with the Republicans?<\/span><\/p>\n Herein lie some clues:<\/span><\/p>\n After\u00a0 <\/span>handily winning the Arizona primary as the party\u2019s nominee for the US Senate, Blake Masters was denied<\/span><\/a> a paltry $8M in funds from the Senate Leadership Fund<\/span><\/a> Pac.\u00a0 <\/span>The Pac which is controlled by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell claims its goal is to \u201cbuild a Republican Senate majority\u00a0<\/i>that will defend America from Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats\u2019 destructive far-left agenda\u201d <\/i>although the PAC has a history of arbitrarily deciding who gets the Big Bucks.\u00a0 <\/span>The PAC website contains no list of endorsed candidates, no info as how much the Fund has raised for the 2022 election or which candidates are being supported financially. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n With an unseemly less than optimistic<\/span><\/a> view of lowered expectations<\/span><\/a> for Republican chances to pick up the Senate, McConnell cited \u2018quality of candidates\u2019<\/i> as one reason for withholding financial support.\u00a0 <\/span>In other words, what McConnell means to imply is that the quid pro quo is alive and well; if a Trump-endorsed candidate is likely to\u00a0 <\/span>win; a complicated conundrum is created since McConnell needs the assure they will support him for Majority Leader. \u00a0 <\/span>This is typical behavior for a RINO.<\/span><\/p>\n In addition, Alaska\u2019s Senate candidate Kelly Tshibaka<\/span><\/a> is in a hot contest opposing RINO Queen Lisa Murkowski<\/span><\/a> as she is scrambling for her fair share of\u00a0 <\/span>campaign funding which was raised to help Senate Republican candidates; although Rep. Liz Cheney<\/span><\/a> who has since lost her House primary received $5,000 from McConnell.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n In NH, McConnell\u2019s PAC has deprived former General Don Boldoc<\/span><\/a> who has a 20% lead the polls from receiving\u00a0 <\/span>a $2.4 M contribution that has been given to Boldoc\u2019s RINO opponent.\u00a0 <\/span>Why?\u00a0 <\/span>Shouldn\u2019t the strategy be to give the Big Money to defeat the Democratic Candidate?\u00a0 <\/span>Which side is McConnell really representing when he clearly favors a Democratic candidate over his own partisan nominee therefore raising the question what is the difference between the RINO\u2019s and the Democrats? \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Instead, McConnell has focused his support on<\/span> Herschel Walker, the Republican Senate candidate in Georgia and Dr. Mehmet Oz<\/span><\/a> in Pennsylvania, both of whom are in very tight races as if these were the \u2018stars\u2019 who are more deserving of support from the Fund and Representative Ted Budd of North Carolina who is a MAGA candidate running for Senate.<\/span><\/p>\n If no other reason, McConnell\u2019s playing with campaign funds against his own party\u2019s chosen nominee is reason enough to deprive him of the Majority Leader position in January.<\/span><\/p>\n On the House side, Minority Leader McCarthy Congressional Leadership Fund<\/span><\/a> provides no better information than the Senate Fund as McCarthy has played a similar game; denying funds to MAGA-endorsed candidates like Laura Loomer<\/span><\/a> and Anthony Sabatini<\/span><\/a> in Florida and Joe Kent<\/span><\/a> in Washington while funding their primary opposition. \u00a0 <\/span>Dave Bart, current Dean at Liberty University\u2019s School of Business tells the story that during his one term<\/span><\/a> in the House 7th District from Virginia, if he voted against the budget or other money bills, House leadership denied him the funds to run a re-election campaign. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Both McCarthy and McConnell have shown they would rather lose to a RINO or a Democrat than upset the image of unanimity as if Republicans are doing the best they can as a minority voice. \u00a0 <\/span>The reality is they could be more proactive and assertive on a whole range of economic issues related to job creation, inflation, interventionist wars, immigration and the role of a balanced budget that would distinguish Republicans as putting the welfare of the country before partisan loyalties.<\/span><\/p>\n Pollster Richard Baris<\/span><\/a> believes that Republican voters are not enamored with RINO leaders McConnell or McCarthy for their lack of leadership and that neither McConnell nor McCarthy are enamored with the Republican ie MAGA base. \u00a0 <\/span>All of which raises the question why either are allowed to control the GOP\u2019s legislative branch since neither represent the legislative interests of their own constituency. <\/span><\/p>\n Renee Parsons\u00a0served on the ACLU\u2019s Florida State Board of Directors and as president of the ACLU Treasure Coast Chapter.
