White House Makes a Terrible Admission That Will Come Back to Haunt Joe Biden

President Biden’s speech last week in Georgia in which he viciously compared his political opposition to Democrat racists of the past is still being talked about a week later, but not for reasons the White House would like it to be.

The bitterly divisive nature of it is still being discussed on TV/radio talk shows, on social media, and is still the subject of questions from members of the White House press corps, some of who appear to be shocked that a guy who has used race as a political weapon to get ahead throughout his decades in Washington, D.C. politics would turn to it again out of desperation.

Before today, White House press secretary Jen Psaki was asked on two different occasions about Biden suggesting that people who disagreed with him on changing the Senate rules on the filibuster and on federalizing elections were no better than racist Democrats from days gone by like Bull Connor, George Wallace, and Jefferson Davis. In both instances, Psaki doubled down, taking the shovel and digging a deeper hole for the Biden White House on this issue.

But during today’s briefing when Psaki was again asked about Biden’s remarks, the answer she gave was one that will likely be used against Biden and Democrats in swing districts in future campaign ads heading into the 2022 midterms:

“I would say first that the president delivered a powerful speech about the protection of peoples’ fundamental rights in this country, which is their right to vote, the right to vote for anyone they choose, whether it is him or someone else. It was not a partisan speech. It was intended to lay out for the public exactly what’s at stake and lay out for elected officials what’s at stake. And he stands by everything he said in that speech.“
