We are baffled at the perceived lack of awareness of Democratic politicians who should, by personal and professional experience know better, in their tactless, defensive posture and expressions of reserve, relative to their candidate, Joseph Biden. The seemingly endless discussion, notably, in the public media is against their political interest, destructive, and in our view qualifies for the clinical determination of self-inflicted injury; the latter to the perverse delight of the Trump-supporting MAGA populists.
We have urged, in earlier writings, that Biden-supporting members of the media and the Democratic-supporting public in general, place special emphasis on, (1) The outstanding record of ubiquitous accomplishments of President Biden in his three-and-one-half years in office (2) The contrasting, abysmal record of Donald J. Trump in his bizarre term as President and, (3) The imminent danger to the Democratic Republic, inarguably, implicit in the possible election of the criminally indicted and convicted Donald J. Trump; who has in addition to a historically unsurpassed plethora of miscreant actions, declared his perverse intention to be a dictator.
Until the occurrence of the contextual events, we had maintained the perception that people elected to political office, legislators, and officials, if not gifted with Socratic wisdom, at bottom, were possessed of practical political savvy, including a modicum of awareness of public sensibilities and empirical reactive inclination. We are obliged by the recent actions of such publically illuminated public servants, that such minimal assumption is, unfortunately, lacking in verisimilitude
Since the abysmal performance by Joseph Biden in a superfluously held televised debate (both parties having previously demonstrated their respective level of acumen in their respective terms of office), the professional Biden supporters have imprudently devoted their time and emphasis to the issue of the proclaimed capability of Biden to win the next Presidential election over the orange-haired demagogic enemy of democracy. Such activities are tactically inept and constitute a program of unhealthy, self-infliction of injury, effective to be suicidally beneficial to the Trump campaign.
The poor performance of Biden lacks material significance when consideration is made, contrasting the excellent performance of Biden during his term of office and the abysmally inadequate and judicially determined, criminal performance of Trump. What does it say about the universal character of the American television viewer, who would critically exalt a disappointing and unentertaining ephemeral television performance by Biden, above the years of his excellent Presidential performance and demonstrated humanism; especially in comparison to the inept and dangerously characterological persona of Donald Trump. Biden, conceivably, would not have been as entertaining as Donald Trump on the third-rate television game show, “The Apprentice;” but such cheap entertainment is light years from comparable to the performance requisite to the historically, impactful Presidency of the United States.
The unnecessary and completely uncalled-for Democratic apologia of the Biden camp is foolishly pandering to the interest of the populist T.V. “couch potato;” more notably, the same also constitutes an inappropriate act of self-inflicted injury, a suicidal act of perverse tactical assistance to Trump.
