Joe Biden: Today's Marie Antoinette
Out of touch aristocrats party, celebrating their role in dragging economy
As the peasants suffered through a crippling economy in France, Marie Antoinette, one of the monarchs at the helm, was the poster child of an aloof leader famously saying “let them eat cake,” when finally realizing people were starving. She ultimately was overthrown and lost her head in the French Revolution. Today, she is a warning for leaders to stay in touch with the common man. It is amazing to see the similarities Marie Antoinette and our current leaders share. Granted, much of Marie Antoinette’s reported transgressions are mere myth. However, the legend of her rule lives on in our current government.
Just recently democrats gathered to celebrate the Inflation Reduction Act on the same day inflation was announced to be 8.3%. No one actually believes the IRA was much more than a half trillion dollar handout to Biden’s friends, let alone will accomplish reducing inflation. It is obvious this type of spending will increase inflation. Then there is the nearly $1 trillion handout for student loan payoffs. Thinking this will do anything other than lead to increased tuition costs and deepening inflation is delusional. The modern day peasants are watching our elite leaders give fellow elites handouts, all while worsening conditions at the bottom, leaving the middle and lower classes to shoulder the burden. It is similar to the last absolute monarchs of France. They spent money they did not have on wars, friends, parties, and lavish lifestyles, leaving the everyday Frenchman to shoulder the burden.
The democrats are now the party of Marie Antoinette. Democrats are leaving us to deal with the consequences they caused: high crime, high prices, homelessness, overrun border, closed schools, electrical blackouts, dependence on foreign energy. While we suffer through these effects, they are throwing parties, celebrating their “achievements,” celebrating kneecapping Oil & Gas, promoting inefficient and absurd energy subsidies, celebrating defunding the police, celebrating lawless borders, celebrating the policies that cause electrical grids to go dark.
How do they get away with this? Why don’t we all shut these policies down? After all, they are elected leaders.
A good friend of mine described how he caught chickens on the farm he grew up on in South Texas. He would put one hand out to the side, wave it around to distract the chicken and use his other hand to quickly snatch the bird by the neck.
I think we humans get distracted by the waving hand, too. Only the waving hand is manufactured news stories used to garner outrage, anger, and fear. The hand snatching us by the neck are those in power, the elites, the establishment, the deep state, the swamp, or the term popular in the 60s, the man. Whatever you call it, we are being distracted. The democrats best hope of distraction is using the government establishment for continued persecution of their political enemies, namely Donald Trump. And wow, do they need a big distraction! We are suffering through self inflicted inflation, self inflicted recession, self inflicted breakdown of the border, and self inflicted energy dependence among many other woes. While our military is focused on promoting transgenderism in the ranks, we execute a disaster of a withdrawal from Afghanistan and Russia invades Ukraine. These have been the biggest issues of the past two years. However, democrats don’t want you to focus on any of that. They want you to focus on Donald Trump. We know this because they manufacture stories to keep him relevant.
The sham show trial in congress was democrat theatre done at precisely the time they wanted. The FBI raid on Trump’s home was a political stunt executed to put Trump on your mind instead of the economic, cultural, and foreign failures of our current government. And we cannot forget Biden’s unity speech… I mean disunity… or was it anti-democracy… oh I know, Biden’s “My Tyranny is Better than your Tyranny” speech:
We all know Biden is not really in control of what he says or does. In reality, the best comparison is to Dwight Schrute giving a Mussolini speech while accepting his Salesman of the Year award:
This hand waving is to keep leftists enraged and manipulated into voting this fall. This hand is meant to get everyone that has Trump Derangement Syndrome to turn out to vote and forget about how their kids were kept out of school, masked, and abused by those in power. They want you to forget about the homeless and forget about the criminals going unpunished on our streets. They want you to forget how much more you pay for groceries, gasoline, electricity, healthcare, and education.
Gone are the days of JFK’s democrat party. Democrats can no longer claim, or even pretend to be the party of anyone other than the elites. Whether they remain in power depends on their ability to manipulate and steal. Joe Biden’s democrats are the natural next breed. These are the ones that put control and virtue signaling to their fellow elites above all else. They are why schools shutdown, kids were masked, and forced to take pointless vaccinations. They are why transgenderism and racialism are being pushed on our kids in schools and parents that speak out are labeled as terrorists by our own government. These controlling virtue signalers are why our government and public companies now spend millions on racializing their operations (which also contributes to inflation by the way).
Let’s all agree to not be distracted by one hand while the other grabs our necks. Let’s all resist the urge to virtue signal and see reality for what it is: parents want the best for their kids; people want to live their lives without judgement, or interference. It is so abundantly clear democrats deserve to lose power. If you can’t quite get yourself to vote republican, I understand. They are not often deserving of our votes either. So, here is my request: you don’t have to vote republican, but you cannot vote democrat.
