The White House denounced supporters of President Donald Trump on Wednesday, accusing them of posing an “extremist threat to our democracy,” Breitbart reports.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre began the daily briefing by condemning Republican leaders for their dangerous rhetoric but also said that President Joe Biden believed supporters of former President Donald Trump were also a threat.
“Let me be very clear, it’s not just Republican leadership, it’s not just that blanket right?” she said to reporters. “He’s talking about an extreme portion, an extreme part of the party.”
Jean-Pierre previewed the president’s speech planned for Thursday about restoring the “soul of Democracy” and warned of “extreme” Republicans.
“When you are supporting an authoritarian figure, as we have seen, who is leading, currently leading, the former president, you know, and um saying and inciting the violence that you are or wanting to take our freedoms, you know we need to say something,” she said.
Jean Pierre asserted there was “more examples we can count” of Trump supporters and Republican leaders demonstrating their threats to democracy.
She specifically complained about Gov. Ron DeSantis for calling for Dr. Anthony Fauci to be “physically assaulted” when he said that “someone needs to grab that little elf and chuck him across the Potomac.”
She stressed that not all Republicans were dangerous to Democracy, pointing out the president’s flattering words about Maryland Republican Gov. Larry Hogan, who she said was “not in that bucket” of Republicans who posed a threat. Breitbart
a threat to our no-longsr-existing democracy, which is why his very existence is a threat to you
Good gezukt!
The greatest threat to American Democracy in the post WWII era has and always will be the media-crity. The lemmings of the electorate follow the glossy hand-outs and mailings as well as the carefully contrived and staged soundbites.
Biden and co seem to be looking to cause conflicts and fights because they believe it will help them in the next election. No previous president – not even Trump – would have attacked those who vote for his opponents as a group the way Biden does. Biden’s repeated efforts to do so are very inflammatory and they also run the risk of turning into a self fulfilling prophesy. Which is probably what Biden is hoping for to help the Democrats in the elections.
Biden isn’t playing with fire. He is looking to make one…
I agree with our first African American press secretary. Blacks in South Chicago can’t sleep at night because they are petrified of white Trump supporters wearing those silly red MAGA hats. Innocent blacks in the Bronx stay indoors after 6 because they just know that some skinny white kid is lurking outside their government funded public housing complex wearing that dreaded MAGA hat while not wearing a disposable mask.
She’s right. Donald Trump is a threat to the Democratic criminal politicians.
So free citizens threaten democracy but government by decree does not?
You’re really worried about a threat to democracy, Mr. White House?
Take a good look in the mirror…
Very scared White House. Mr. Trump offered a friendship with Israel. A clear path to having the best help.
Beware. The face in Biden’s drive is his fetish born road map to cage a society. The family growth is cut fading for a serious bad gay back off.
