Anyone who was paying attention during the weeks leading up to Election Day saw the shift. Suddenly, almost as if someone flipped a switch, the “normal” level of unhinged rhetoric coming from those at the top of the democratic leadership hierarchy changed. Almost overnight, in unison, it went from the “usual” degree of unhinged, to:
- Trump is literally Hitler.
- His supporters are literal Nazis.
- He is going to use the military to round up those who won’t support him.
- You are racist, misogynistic, homophobic, sexist (and a Nazi) if you don’t vote for Kamala.
It was an absolutely astounding thing to watch. And generally, I took it as a sign that the Harris-Walz campaign and the democratic party recognized they were about to lose big.
But the fact that these people were willing to go so far off the rails, saying things they knew were patently false, was scary. And how easily the media ran with it was even scarier. They weren’t even pretending to maintain some level of truth — they were flat out lying in the most heinous ways.
An often repeated line from Biden and the others was that President Trump was “a threat to democracy.” (If you’ve read my stories… you know my take on democracy. America is a Constitutional Republic for one primary reason; the founders wanted to SAFEGUARD us from the evils of DEMOCRACIES!)
Nonetheless, I get their point. They were saying in no uncertain terms, every single time a camera was pointed their way, that Trump was going to destroy the country. But suddenly today, with the election decided, Biden seems to have dropped the act. Check out this video when a reporter yells out to him and asks “Is Trump still a threat to democracy?”

If you couldn’t catch his response, he simply answered, “I’m gonna see him on Wednesday.” Then he tried to stifle a grin, and quickly ducked into his waiting ride.
He could have nodded. He could have said, “Yes, certainly… what – you think I was lying all this time?” He could have said, “Maybe – we’ll have to wait and see.” But he didn’t say anything like that.
He just casually said he would be seeing President Trump on Wednesday, tried to hide his grin, and got into the safety of his protected vehicle; protected from the cameras and the questions. Why? Because he’s laughing at the half of the country who believed the obvious lie… and he’s amazed that the reporters are actually still running with it — as if they didn’t realize it was a lie to begin with.
EVEN BIDEN IS SUPRISED THE MEDIA TOOK THE BAIT!!!
And, then? Then Biden went on his merry way, to another beach vacation in Delaware, of course — as if nothing ever happened. Is that the actions of a man who is about to meet with the most dangerous threat to American freedom in just a couple of days?

According to a Reuters story carried by US News & World Report, it sounds as though the focus of Biden’s meeting with President Trump in the Oval Office is going to be Ukraine — not whether or not “democracy” is going to survive under Trump’s watch.
U.S. President Joe Biden will discuss top domestic and foreign policy priorities with President-elect Donald Trump when the two meet on Wednesday, and will urge him not to abandon Ukraine, national security adviser Jake Sullivan said on Sunday.
“The President will have the chance to explain to President Trump how he sees things, where they stand, and talk to President Trump about how President Trump is thinking about taking on these issues when he takes office,” Sullivan said.
While Sullivan did not specify which topics the two would discuss, their conversation will almost certainly feature Ukraine’s war with Russia, which Trump has pledged to end swiftly, although he did not say how.
And just like that… all that “threat to democracy” talk just goes away? No — it’s still there. It’s in the media every day, and it’s in the minds of those who believed the patently false narratives that the media pushed, because those in power wanted them to push it.
Meanwhile, Biden is laughing at the whole thing; visibly amused that the ruse worked so well.
