President Joe Biden has said many words during his nearly two years in office. Some of them have been funny, some of them have been incoherent, and some of them have been just bizarre.
But on Thursday, he may have topped the list for disturbing statements.
During an event in California, Biden spoke about the investments made by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
At the outset of his remarks, the president acknowledged several California Democratic lawmakers in attendance.
And hereās where the terrifying comment came in. He gave a shout out to Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) and added, āWhatever Maxine says, I agree with.ā
Watch the video below:
He then moved on to the next Democrat official without any further elaboration.
Let us review a sampling of what Waters has said:
In 2018, she declared, āLetās make sure we show up wherever we have to show up. And if you see anybody from Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them theyāre not welcome anymore, anywhere. Weāve got to get the children connected to their parents.ā
Before former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of George Floydās murder last year, Waters said, āWeāre looking for a guilty verdict and weāre looking to see if all of the talk that took place and has been taking place after they saw what happened to George Floyd. If nothing does not happen, then we know that we got to not only stay in the street, but we have got to fight for justice.ā
āWe got to stay on the street. And weāve got to get more active, weāve got to get more confrontational. Weāve got to make sure that they know that we mean business,ā she added.
And in June, 2022, after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Waters said, āThe hell with the Supreme Court. We will defy them. Women will be in control of their bodies. And if they think Black women are intimidated or afraid, they got another thought coming.ā
Bonus:
In 2017, Waters supported objecting to certifying former President Donald Trumpās election win.
So by Bidenās telling, he supports āconfrontationalā protests, confronting people at restaurants and telling them they are not welcome there or anywhere, and defying a Supreme Court decision. And it could be argued, he might support objecting to presidential election victories when you donāt like the outcome.
More than likely he meant the comment in jest. Still, it is a pretty disturbing thought.
