Biden has become bitter. He likely feels as though he should still be in the White House.
And Joe Biden was caught trembling in distress over these Trump plans.
In a stunning display of desperation, former President Joe Biden emerged from his health battles to paint a grim picture of America under President Donald Trump’s leadership, labeling these times as nothing short of apocalyptic.
Speaking in Boston after receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Edward M. Kennedy Institute, per the AP, the Democrat sounded more like a doomsayer than a statesman, urging folks to rally around Hollywood’s fading stars.
Biden, fresh off radiation treatments for prostate cancer, unleashed a torrent of anxiety about the current administration. He positioned himself as a guardian of democracy, but his words came across as the ramblings of a man out of touch with the triumphant spirit sweeping the nation under Trump’s return to the White House.
“Since its founding, America served as a beacon for the most powerful idea ever in government in the history of the world,” Biden stated. “The idea is stronger than any army. We’re more powerful than any dictator.”
He stressed the need for checks and balances, pointing to a presidency with boundaries, a working Congress, and an independent court system. Yet, in the same breath, he accused Trump of wielding the ongoing government shutdown like a weapon to consolidate control.
This shutdown, now the second-longest in history, stems from fierce battles over border security and fiscal responsibility—issues that resonate deeply with Trump’s base. Biden’s critique ignores how these standoffs expose the deep state’s resistance to real change, preferring endless spending sprees over protecting American workers.
Shifting his focus, Biden aimed his barbs squarely at Trump and his team, dripping with disdain. He then elevated late-night comedians to heroic status in a bizarre twist that only a Beltway insider could conjure.
“Friends, I can’t sugar coat any of this. These are dark days,” Biden declared. But for millions of Americans thriving under Trump’s economic resurgence and America First agenda, these days feel brighter than the stagnant era Biden oversaw.
He went on to assure the crowd that the nation would “find our true compass again” and “emerge as we always have — stronger, wiser and more resilient, more just, so long as we keep the faith.” It’s a hollow promise from someone whose administration left borders porous, inflation raging, and families struggling.
Biden’s praise for late-night hosts struck a particularly odd note, portraying them as warriors for liberty amid their dwindling viewership. As Hollywood’s influence wanes in the face of Trump’s populist wave, these so-called funnymen have turned into mouthpieces for the left, mocking the very voters who put Trump back in power.
“The late night hosts continue to shine a light on free speech knowing their careers are on the line,” Biden said. Yet, real free speech champions are the everyday patriots and alternative media voices who’ve been censored by Big Tech, not the privileged elites peddling anti-Trump tirades from cushy studios.
In wrapping up, Biden called on everyone to “get back up,” as if the country had been knocked down by Trump’s victories. But the truth is, America is rising stronger, shaking off the chains of progressive policies that Biden championed.
This speech reveals the panic gripping the Democrat establishment, with Biden as their weary spokesman. Trump’s decisive win in 2024 has them scrambling, resorting to fearmongering instead of offering solutions that put Americans first.
Meanwhile, Trump’s administration is delivering on promises: securing borders, slashing regulations, and boosting manufacturing jobs. Biden’s warnings fall flat against the backdrop of record employment and renewed national pride.
Late-night TV, once a cultural powerhouse, now clings to relevance by bashing the president elected by the people. Biden’s endorsement of them points to the disconnect between coastal elites and heartland heroes.
As Americans move forward in 2025, Biden’s gloomy outlook serves as a reminder of why voters rejected his vision. Trump’s era is about empowerment, not entitlement, and no amount of celebrity worship will dim that light.
