Look, I mean, Biden is largely out of touch with reality, he is captured by the hard left. I think that Congressman Mueller said it exactly right. What kind of an American president skips Oklahoma, Texas, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio, in order to go to Venezuela, Iran, Saudi Arabia to get oil which hurts America in every way. What kind of American president would take the American strategic oil reserve and send a million barrels of oil to a Chinese company his son has business with? Biden is essentially a creature of a machine, and I don’t know how cognitively clever he is. But it’s clear he memorizes a handful of things, he repeats them, and he gets mad at you as you saw in the picture, he gets mad at you if you don’t immediately agree.

Part of the reason that I wrote defeating big government socialism is nobody in the white house thinks anything is particularly wrong. I don’t think we understand, they want high energy prices because they want to punish us into a green program. They want open borders because they want to flood the country with millions and millions of illegal immigrants. They want murderers put back on the street because they believe in a philosophy which favors the killer over the victim. None of these things are accidents and I think what you have is a machine which pays off its allies with your money, huge volumes. The amount of money pouring out of Washington is unimaginable. It’s comparable to World War II. And so, from their perspective, why would they want to fire anyone? They basically think they’re doing fine.

Well, I think there’s a lot of Democrats who don’t want him to run again but the question is are they a majority. Excuse me. The question is, are they a majority and the question is do they have the levers of power. You know, don’t assume that people in power learn anything from their mistakes. We once defeated the communist governor of Grenada and got all of their documents. They spoke English so it was pretty easy for us to publish their documents. When they were collapsing, they were studying Stalin’s writing. Now here is a largely black African country in the Caribbean, a tiny island, studying the dictator of Russia a country of 13 times them looking for a solution. Of course, they didn’t find any. There’s no reason to believe the left is ever going to think things are wrong. What they thinks wrong are conservatives on the supreme court. They like the idea of threatening them, even though it’s totally illegal and it tells you how corrupt the justice department is, that the FBI’s not protecting the supreme court justices. But we have to turn ourselves on our heads to understand the mindset of the people who are currently running America because we keep assuming they’ll be rational by our terms. When in fact, the group they most represent are the Bolsheviks who took over Russia in 1917 to wage war on the Russian people for the purpose of destroying Russian society and create creating what they called new soviet man. The people like AOC want a totally new world with totally new values and she’s perfectly happy to make the rest of us utterly miserable if that what it costs to get to her world.

Well, I mean the best hope we have short of the ’24 elections is that a big Republican landslide in the house and senate and a very aggressive, methodical leadership by speaker McCarthy, developing an agenda which he is working on which I know is very systematic and very real. That it will force Biden to make a choice, he can either sign it and be popular with the American people or he can veto it and be unpopular with the American people. Whether or not Biden and his team will have the courage to do it — remember, Bill Clinton was an Arkansas politician who had dealt with a conservative state legislature. He actually forced a civil war in the democratic party. When we passed welfare reform, when Clinton agreed to sign it. It was 93-93 in the democratic party with the left wing enraged at Bill and took it out on Hillary later on.
