Hey, a little bit of a hello out there to the folks at Virginia Tech. My daughter is at Virginia Tech. She has been on a service week instead of spring break a bunch of the folks at the Catholic Center down at Virginia Tech go out and do service all all across the country. There’s, I think 3 or 4 trips. Her trip is up into Maryland helping out some folks doing some tasks and service, and I guess I’m told from my daughter that some of the folks out there have discovered the Pro America Report and have been tuning in so hello to the guys and gals who are on the Virginia Tech trip. Glad you’re there. Thanks for listening. I hope you’re signed up for those two places where you get updates proamericareport.com as well as Phyllisschlafly.com. OK, but best wishes.
OK. The state of the Union. Here. Here’s the thing. This is classic Biden. Biden won, and he lost. He won and he won the day he won It really, really well. He really did a good job of Doing this he he came out with, you know, mad energy, mad and kind of crazy. Crazy. Seemed like a crazy old man, but mad energy, high energy and serious serious energy. And and he really made a good point and he he was able to kind of hammer that together and and let people know that he was. Energetic. He still looked like an old man, but he did. He pulled it off. Whether he you know, people were joking. What kind of drugs was he on? At some point someone said that’s wearing off as he got, but he he even ad libbed. He even jumped around.
He, you know, he saw Marjorie Taylor Green goaded him into Commenting on Laken Riley, the woman that was murdered, but he did it. He took the pin that, that, that Marjorie Taylor Green offered him, and he put it up next to him. And when she yelled at him in the middle of the thing, he brought it up and he pulled it up. He said, here’s the thing. Look, he brought the energy. He brought the energy and he had to. Why? Because the drum beat of he’s not able to run. He can’t do this had gotten so loud and it was only from the Dem – Well, no, it was coming from the Democrats now that for the days and weeks up to the state of the Union, they were saying he’s too old, he has to step aside. He’s Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who famously resisted. She resisted calls for her to resign during the Biden administration. She was on the Supreme Court. For I don’t know, two or three decades, and she was asked. No, two decades. She well, let’s see. She was put on by Clinton, so she would ohh 3 decades close to three decades, maybe a little bit less. But she refused to step down before 2016 and people kept asking or begging her wanting her to do it. And she refused, and therefore she was alive and served for the first part of the Trump administration. And then she got sick and passed away and bam, her seat was replaced by Amy Coney Barrett, a conservative.
So people have been saying about Biden. You can’t do this. You can’t do this. You can’t win. You don’t have the energy. You’re too old, and he’s resisted, resisted, resisted. Well. His state of the Union. It was a message to the Democrats. I’m winning. I’m winning the nomination and you’re not gonna replace me. And that he that was probably. That was his number one goal. He had to do that and he did it big time. So on the win for the win, Joe Biden for the win.
Now, he also lost miserably. Because he lost the election last night he lost the general election last night. He he demonized more than half the country. He demonized his opponent, his opponents’ followers. He he didn’t talk about the issues that people are facing. So he showed himself to be a typical politician who’s just interested in himself, just interested in his election he took the state of the Union which it has, you know, I talked to John Schlafly about it. I talked to Lord Conrad Black. You’ll hear from both of them. I hope we’re gonna get them on the show and talk to them both. And Lord Black said he’s been watching. He’s been listening and watching state of the union since 1960 well, since Kennedy might have been ’61 or ’62 by the time Kennedy gave his first speech, and he said that no one’s ever done this where they go so after the their opponent.
Now, there’s never been anything like Trump. But there’s also never been, like anyone, like a previous president running in the modern era. Grover Cleveland did it, but not, you know, that was the only one. So there’s nothing like this. So I will say that, but by being so vicious and angry, you know, he he was really, really angry. And anger is one thing. Voters hate it by the way. Voters hate angry. They don’t trust it. It doesn’t make them feel strong. It doesn’t make them feel like you’re strong. It doesn’t make them feel like you’re a doer. It just is. It’s anger is not good. What’s good is fear. And that’s what Biden. Biden’s trying to do. Biden’s trying to do fear. He tried to talk about Hitler. He tried to, but it didn’t work. It didn’t work because we know Trump is. He’s been in office. He’s not perfect. He’s not anything he, you know, like his rhetoric, you know, like his tweets. OK. But he’s not Hitler, and nobody buys that.
So Biden has tried a different hoax here, and that’s the Hitler hoax. And it’s it’s falling flat. But he doesn’t know that, but more importantly. His failure to speak to the truths that people are facing, he didn’t talk about inflation. He talked about shrinkflation the idea that there’s not as many chips in his bag of chips. That’s what he talked about in other time. Other speeches he’s talked about the number of cookies in a bag of cookies. That’s people are feeling inflation. They don’t believe you when you say ohh. We did all kinds of things to help the economy’s great. They feel inflation in their lives and he didn’t get to it. He didn’t get to immigration until 45 minutes into the thing into the speech. And then he talked as if he was the only one who wanted to do anything and everybody else didn’t wanna do anything.
And of course, the biggest lie. Is for a period of time. Ohh about what? Maybe 18 months. He had control of the House and Senate and no election pending. I always tell people that about about five months 3-4 or five months before an election you’re gonna have the problem of election coming. So let’s say that Joe Biden conservatively had 18 Months where we had a Democrat speaker, a Democrat, head of the Senate and he was President. They could have done anything they wanted. They could have passed anything they wanted on the border. But so, he’s just a liar. He’s just a liar and people feel it again. People. People feel that that was a politically a self absorbed speech. He used I. I I did this, I did that. I did. I did. I will. I will. He didn’t even try to fake it like politicians do. I’m not saying they’re all sincere, but they know you say we and let us do something. Let’s. It was I I I I I I I. And it doesn’t. It doesn’t work. It didn’t work.
So he, look as long as he stays healthy and you know you have to say one thing about Joe Biden, I think he rides a bike, a stationary bike. He’s always stayed very lean. This is a, he’s very tall. He’s 6 foot three or four. He’s like, well, he’s as tall as Trump, maybe an inch taller. And he’s lean. And he looks healthy in the sense of his body. So unless he has a health problem that we’re not seeing a physical health problem, a medical problem, or has something come up, he he just, he just got himself. He won the primary, he won the primary during the state of the Union. He carried energy, you know, crazy energy, but enough that people like, OK, we could do it the and the left was going crazy.
He was doing every kind of giveaway. Every kind of thing we’re gonna have. We’re not gonna sell, he says. We’re not gonna send soldiers to Ukraine, but we’re gonna send military American military to build. What, like, docks at Gaza to deliver things. If you’re an Israeli. If you’re Israeli, like what? You’re you’re helping build Gaza docks for aid, I guess. Well, American personnel gonna be over there. We’ll see how that turns out. But my point is.
High. Energy. Lots of giveaways, lots of clearly transparent political ploys for the people on the left. He did it. He pulled it off.
So he won, but then he lost the general. And I think history will be unkind to Joe Biden. Because I think that the next administration will uncover a lot of the abuses, a lot of things that he and his administration did and when they do it will it will. It will sort of fulfill what looks like horrendously anti American people. Well, let’s say it better policies that are horrendously aimed at large groups of the American people, Catholics, they targeted, the MAGA extreme. There’s all these things that Biden has done. I think they will look unkindly history on this.
And here’s a little bit of the trick, what you might be seeing. Is the Obama folks and Obama realizing you can’t stop Joe from running. And he can’t win. So we’re just going to let him go now and move away from him. And when we move away from him, we’re going to let him go. Then we’re going to prepare to tie Trump in knots when he’s president. And then more importantly, we’re gonna basically say Joe was out of control. It wasn’t us. That’s not stuff we would do that stuff Joe was doing. He was out of control. Out there and they’ll move on. Maybe, maybe. Nasty, nasty stuff, but that’s what happened with the state of the union. So we gotta take a break.
