Biden Suggests Trump’s Popularity Is ‘Phony,’ Makes Odes To The Sandwich Makers Of America

We’re all pretty sure that Joe Biden is going to run against Trump in 2020. Is it sad that I’m not even looking at that from a political standpoint? I’m thinking about the pure entertainment value. Surely, I can’t be the only one. Think about it. Biden is totally going to threaten to take Trump behind the gym again.

Can’t wait.

Biden is currently running around the country, campaigning for Democrats ahead of the midterms. He recently hit up New Jersey and tried to amp them up by talking about flipping the House.

At a rally supporting Democratic House candidate Mikie Sherrill, the former vice president took veiled shots at Trump when he criticized a “raw, naked nationalism” and “phony populism” that he contended is ripping the country’s moral fabric and eroding its middle class. He warned Sherrill’s backers in the Republican-held 11th District of possible moves by a GOP-controlled Congress to trim social safety net programs or roll back Obamacare.

That right there. “Phony populism.” MALARKEY. Is he high? It’s not phony. The resistance may be whiny and loud, but it doesn’t represent America as a whole.

CNBC goes on to say that Biden got really “folksy” during his speech by making “odes to the shoe shiners and sandwich makers of America.” It’s something MSM would mock him over if he identified as a Republican.

In his campaign stops so far, Biden has touted the type of working-class focused policy that Democrats hope will help them flip the 23 GOP-held seats they need to take the House. On Wednesday, he stressed the importance of protecting health-care coverage expansion under the Affordable Care Act and upholding labor rights, among other economic issues he highlighted.

“Our single greatest objective … is to re-establish and broaden the middle class,” Biden said.

Democrats are going to re-establish and broaden the middle class by enacting policies that will crush the middle class. That’s what socialism tends to do, after all.

If Biden decides to run, he could find himself in the heat of a potential ideological battle during his party’s primary. More Democrats have started to embrace policies championed by the party’s left wing, including Medicare for all, free public college tuition and abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

If Biden runs, will he go full blown socialist? I wouldn’t be surprised. He already flirts with it enough as it is.
