Oh, how the times change. This clip from October of 2020 shows one of two things. Either President Joe Biden is profoundly dishonest and always intended to bypass Congress on some significant policy issues, or this is what he really believes, and cognitive decline allows his staff to lead him. Given his history in public life, as well as his noticeable mental and physical slow-down, it’s a toss-up.
In an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, the host pressed Biden about when tax increases would be effective. Because paying more in taxes is so super-popular, Stephanopoulos wanted to know if it would happen right away. Biden responded:
Well, I gotta get the votes. I gotta get the votes. That’s why, ya know, one thing, I have this strange notion. We are a democracy. Some of my Republican friends and some of my Democratic friends even occasionally say, “Well if you can’t get the votes, by executive order you’re going to do something.” Things you can’t do by executive order unless you’re a dictator. We’re a democracy. We need consensus.
Liar!
The Dum-asses forget WE have video footage of their sick Hippocrit selves !!! GOTCHA !!!!
It doesn’t matter; democrats can do whatever they want!
Thank goodness we are NOT a democracy! We are a Constitutional Republic!
Ruling by executive order is only OK if it’s the dumbocrats doing more damage to the country in the first week than the turd did in the first year!
Expect another Trump type election in ’24… Trump-Haley maybe!
Democrats have always ruled by DICTATORSHIP, since JFK was killed. Bill Clinton was the new day Dictator and Pelosi has kept it going.
Days of doing Whatever they want (Democrats ) will end soon !!!!
