President Joe Biden went after “MAGA Republicans” over and over again during his primetime speech.
Biden delivered the speech from Philadelphia’s Independence Hall on Thursday night.
“We must be honest with each other and with ourselves,” Biden said.
He added, “Too much of what’s happening in our country today is not normal. Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.”
Acknowledging that “not even the majority of Republicans are MAGA Republicans,” Biden continued, “I know because I’ve been able to work with these mainstream Republicans.”
Watch Biden’s remarks below:
Still, he explained that there is no question the Republican Party is “dominated, driven and intimidated by Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans. And that is a threat to this country.”
Additionally, Biden claimed that “MAGA Republicans” do not “respect the Constitution. They do not believe in the rule of the law. They do not recognize the will of the people. They refuse to accept the results of a free election.”
The president’s speech comes just a week after he suggested the MAGA ideology is like semi-fascism, as IJR reported.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed on the criticism of Biden’s remark.
