CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 23, 2023
TONE DEAF DOESN’T EVEN BEGIN TO PROPERLY IDENTIFY WHAT PRESIDENT BIDEN SAID WHILE BRIEFLY TOURING THE FIRE DAMAGE IN MAUI. FIRST, HE MISTAKENLY CALLED MAUI “THE BIG ISLAND,” WHICH IS ANOTHER ISLAND. THEN HE SAID THIS: “I DON’T WANT TO COMPARE DIFFICULTIES, BUT WE HAVE A LITTLE SENSE, JILL AND I, OF WHAT IT’S LIKE TO LOSE A HOME. YEARS AGO, NOW 15 YEARS AGO, WHILE I WAS IN WASHINGTON DOING ‘MEET THE PRESS’ IT WAS A SUNNY SUNDAY AND LIGHTNING STRUCK AT HOME ON A LITTLE LAKE OUTSIDE OUR HOME – NOT A LAKE, A POND.”
BIDEN SAID THE SPARK WENT THROUGH THE WIRES AND INTO THE HEATING DUCTS AND INTO THE KITCHEN. “TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, I ALMOST LOST MY WIFE, MY ’67 CORVETTE, AND MY CAT.”
THE PRESIDENT WAS GREETED WITH SIGNS THAT SAID “GO HOME” AND EXPLETIVES WERE HURLED AT HIM. HE PLEDGED A MEASLEY $700 PER FAMILY, WHICH BARELY COVERS HIGH GROCERY PRICES.
IF YOU SAW THE VIDEO YOU SAW A MAN FURTHER IN DECLINE. DEMOCRATS HAVE GOT TO BE WORRIED. VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS TRYING TO RE-MAKE HER IMAGE. IN BASEBALL, YOU WOULD SAY SHE IS THE RELIEF PITCHER WARMING UP IN THE BULLPEN. I’M CAL THOMAS.
