GOP Urging Americans To Deal With Biden's 'MAGA' Insults At Polls, Not On Streets

In an effort to calm down GOP voters incensed at being called threats to the republic by Joe Biden during a highly inflammatory prime-time speech on Thursday, Republicans are urging them to take it out on the president and his party at the polls, not on the streets.

Biden inappropriately chose Independence Hall in Philadelphia, which is literally the birthplace of our nation, to call out “MAGA Republicans” as a threat to the country and freedom during his prime-time outrage, complete with U.S. Marines as a prop, drawing not a few comparisons to Nazi Germany.

“We must be honest with each other and with ourselves,” Biden said at one point. “Too much of what’s happening in our country today is not normal. Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.”

“MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution,” he falsely claimed. “They do not believe in the rule of law. They do not recognize the will of the people. They refuse to accept the results of a free election.”

“And they’re working right now, as I speak in state after state, to give the power to decide elections in America to partisans and cronies, empowering election-deniers to undermine democracy itself. MAGA forces are determined to take this country backwards. Backwards to an America where there is no right to choose, no right to privacy, no right to contraception, no right to marry who you love. They promote authoritarian leaders and they fan the flames of political violence that are a threat to our personal rights, to the pursuit of justice, to the rule of law, to the very soul of this country,” Biden claimed.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), tweeted in response to Biden’s speech and GOP anger: “The best way to protect the American people from this deranged ideologue is to elect a Republican majority this fall.”

Biden and his Democratic Party have seized upon the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol Building as ‘proof’ that Trump supporters are violent threats, completely ignoring the rioting and violence that lasted for months on end following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis — violence that included more than a month’s worth of nightly attacks on a federal courthouse in Portland, Ore.

Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) also urged angry voters to take their ‘revenge’ at the polls.

“If you live in a red area on this map, Biden automatically thinks you’re a semi-fascist. If you live in a blue area but voted Republican, don’t worry—Biden believes you’re a fascist too. @JoeBiden, I see A LOT of red. FYI we VOTE, and we won’t forget what you called us,” he tweeted along with a map of the U.S. showing the political divide.

Other conservatives said that Biden’s speech is likely to backfire on him and his party if Republicans remain focused on the November elections and what has happened with inflation, the border, and social policies since he took office.

“If tonight didn’t light a fire under your butt to get out and vote Republican in November, I don’t know what will. We have a country to save. This is not a fire drill,” Fox News’ Lisa Boothe offered.

“You owe Biden nothing. Not respect. Not loyalty. Not obedience. Let his s****y supporters go fight his wars. Vote every Republican you can in the office,” added conservative commentator and military veteran Kurt Schlichter.
