In a speech Monday in Wisconsin, President Joe Biden continued his attacks on the more conservative wing of the GOP after Republicans criticized his comments and Trump attacked him as an "enemy of the state".
Biden criticized the "MAGA Republicans, the extreme right, the Trumpies," saying "MAGA Republicans in Congress have chosen to go backwards, full of anger, violence, hate and division."
The president attacked GOP lawmakers in Congress for voting against policies he and Democratic legislators have enacted like the American Rescue Plan and Inflation Reduction Act, saying that they "Couldn't let Biden have a victory."
He pointed to a Senate campaign plan drafted by the GOP that called for Congress to vote on the future of Social Security every five years.
Biden criticized Johnson for saying that January 6 was a peaceful protest and for being one of the "MAGA Republicans".
There is no democracy where you can be pro-insurrection and pro-democracy according to the president.
The president said that he has been able to work with mainstream Republicans his entire career.
Biden said that they have to be more determined and committed to saving democracy than the Republicans. Democracy is at stake, that's why.
The ex-president himself criticized Biden's speech at Independence Hall in Philadelphia as "the most vicious, hate-filled, and divisive speech ever delivered by an American president." The group that control him is the enemy of the state according to Donald Trump.
It was 19 percent. According to a CBS News poll conducted on August 29-31, 34% of U.S. adults identify as part of theMAGA movement.
Biden criticized Trump and his followers in a speech in Philadelphia on Thursday, saying that they were like semi-fascists and that they were present in the country. Biden said that the Republican Party is dominated by Donald Trump and that they do not believe in the rule of law. Biden's comments, which stood in contrast to the president's previous hesitance to sharply attack Republican colleagues, were criticized by the right. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) called for Biden to apologize after he demeaned his fellow Americans. McConnell didn't comment on the speech. Chris Meagher, the White House's deputy press secretary, said that democracy is not a political or partisan issue.
The speech against Trumpism was made by Biden.
Biden says Trump's philosophy is "semi-fascist".
We learned a lot from Donald Trump's rally.
