Must-See Video Below with the entire transcript:

President Biden: “I reduced the federal deficit. All the talk about the deficit from my Republican friends, I love it. I’ve reduced it $350 billion in my first year in office. […] I don’t want to hear Republicans talk about deficits and their ultra-MAGA agenda.”

We need more of this every damned day. It will probably never appear on Fox. Biden looks too good, not even the slightest bit senile. He looks clear-headed enough to be furious. It WILL be on CNN and MSNBC, some Independents and MAGA-Lite’s will see it on CNN at least, and they will have to rethink. They know they’ve been lied to before, many times. But not from Biden, from Trump.

Biden has a right to be angry. He had the most progressive agenda proposed since FDR’s New Deal. Biden effectively had a “New Deal for the 21st Century.” And he thought he had a Democratic Congress that could get it done through budget reconciliation. All he needed was for every Democrat to vote for it.

Instead, we found out we have two Republicans in our “majority.” So Biden damn well does have the right to be angry even though the nation fails to appreciate just how much the infrastructure bill, the one that Trump couldn’t get through even a week’s worth of talks.

So despite the MAGA-generated talk of Biden being “senile” and failing, he has to stand up, day by day, week by week, and utilize his moral authority flowing through Roe, and his aptitude and experience through his strength and do much much more of this:
