Delusional, Bitter Biden Gives One Last Interview to Sycophantic MSNBC—Pathetically Blasts ‘Red States’ – RedState
Joe Biden just can’t seem to let go.
Although his presidency and his legacy have been thoroughly repudiated—whether it be through the polls, which show he’s one of the lowest-rates presidents of all time, or at the ballot box where his hand-picked successor Kamala Harris was brutalized in the November elections—his tenure has been thoroughly tainted by an astounding record of failure. Inflation has killed the dreams of regular folks as just paying for groceries has become a traumatic experience; young people have no hope of buying a home or living the American Dream—considering the crushing interest rates and noxious cost of living. Meanwhile, wars rage on the international stage.
There is almost nothing good that he leaves his successor, Donald Trump.
Yet he continues in his final days to flail away at convincing us that somehow his presidency was a success.
On Thursday night, he appeared with one of the most vacuous hosts in the history of cable news, MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell, to continue to try to burnish his disastrous legacy. This after the lame-duck commander-in-chief delivered one of the darkest, most depressing farewell speeches in the history of our Great Experiment.

In this segment, he waxes philosophical about his endless career in politics:

For Biden, he was relatively cogent; to be honest (not trying to be mean here, just telling the truth), I could barely understand him in his Oval Office farewell speech—his slurring was that bad. But on MSNBC, at least, his words were mostly clear. When asked, predictably, about the “fragility of Democracy,” he tried to wax poetic:
“That sounds corny. But I mean, I really, really am concerned, because you’ve heard me say it 100 times, I really think we’re in an inflection point in history here. Where unrelated to any particular leader.”
He added that “the thing that keeps it on track are the guardrails. There’s a Supreme Court that’s independent, but accountable. There is a Congress that you speak your mind, but you’re held accountable to basic standards. [Really?! Did you see Jasmine Crockett the other day?]
“There’s a presidency that says you have really limited powers. I mean, you’re the top dog, but you can’t dictate everything. And I don’t know, they seem to just be chipping away at all those elements.”
The problem here is that it’s actually Joe Biden who’s been chipping away at all those elements. He’s done everything in his power to undermine a key branch of government, the Supreme Court, and he’s been open about his desire to crack down on free speech—a key factor in our Democracy, codified in the First Amendment. He’s weaponized the judicial system, turning the powers of the state on his political rivals and forcing social media companies to bend the knee and censor regular Americans.
Oh, and I love how O’Donnell admits that Joe’s handlers shoved him and the rest of the reporters out of the room; he says it with admiration as if silencing the press is a noble effort. He’s right up there with Jim Acosta in the “No Shame” Hall of Fame.
He leaves in disgrace, and no amount of googly eyes from the shameless Lawrence O’Donnell or Joe’s ponderous reflections can change that. Biden’s sad, pathetic farewell address from the Oval Office will go down in history as one of the worst ever, and this meandering, pointless interview will only add to that shameful legacy.
Oh, and of course, he blasts red states—completely ignoring actual facts:
