Supporters cheer as former President Donald Trump leaves the stage after speaking during a Save America rally Saturday, Jan. 29, 2022, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds in Conroe.Opinion: So much for unity. Biden’s speech cast millions of Americans as the enemy within.
” : Bret Stephens blasts President Biden’s speech in Philadelphia two weeks ago because Biden called out MAGA Republicans. Stephens acknowledges that Biden was careful to distinguish between traditional Republicans and those who have embraced Donald Trump, but then asserts that Biden painted with too broad a brush. No one who watched or read the speech and who has paid any attention over the past six years can honestly contend that they don’t know exactly who Biden was talking about.
Unless and until Republicans distance themselves from Donald Trump and his election lies, Biden is absolutely correct in identifying them as a threat to democracy. What do you call the 147 Republicans in the House and Senate who would not vote to recognize Joe Biden’s free and fair election even after the violent assault on the Capitol? I call them the “Sedition Caucus.”
Stephens sees Donald Trump as the “gravest threat American democracy faces today,” and is not concerned about “the Republican Party, MAGA or otherwise.” He fails to show how you can separate the two. If there is a silent majority of Republicans opposing Trump, they have been intimidated into silence, if not expelled from the party. Although Stephens shamelessly blames Democrats, it is the fault of Republicans when Trump-endorsed MAGA extremists win their party’s nominations.
