It’s okay. Joe is having flashbacks to the 80s where you could maybe get a majority of Dems behind this position.
President Biden called into the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thursday, calling on Americans to “come together” and put unity above politics over the holiday weekend — and beyond.
“On this Thanksgiving, Al, we have to come together,” the president told NBC’s Al Roker. “We can have different political views, but we have one view. The one view is that we’re the finest, greatest nation in the world. We should focus on that.”
If Biden really believes that, maybe he should become a Republican. Again. Because has Biden checked with his party on that position?
The NY Times/Siena College national poll finds that only 37% of Democrats agree with the statement that “America is the greatest country in the world.”
Instead, 55% of Democrats endorsed the statement that “America is a great country but not the greatest.” Another 7% said the US is “not a great country” with the remainder having no opinion.
By comparison, 69% of Republicans said the US was the greatest.
As the guy responsible for Biden being in the White House, once said, “I believe in American exceptionalism, just as I suspect that the Brits believe in British exceptionalism and the Greeks believe in Greek exceptionalism.”
Does Biden actually believe that America is the “finest, greatest nation in the world”?
T’would be nice to think so but I suspect he’s just echoing the ghosts of teleprompters past. These are the sorts of things that Senate Democrats with presidential aspirations used to say: generally without actually believing them.
But then again I don’t think Biden really believes in things. Career politicians tend not to. Biden believes in D.C. and the system which has served him so well. The stuff about America is like an old song that a man remembers from his teenage years and he hums it, but that doesn’t mean he actually believes what the lyrics say.
Politics is an old song to Joe Biden. He takes the lyrics seriously as a performer, not a believer. And the songs he’s singing aren’t those that his party is signing anymore.

It’s old age that makes Biden say “America is great”. Democrats used to say that when Biden was in his prime, but half of them didn’t believe it then either. It was just something that sounded inspirational for Democrat politicians to say, much like Biden’s current “come together” mantra. Never has an administration in modern history spent more time dividing America than Biden’s. Division has been number 3 on their agenda (behind destroying America and vacations) since they pilfered the White House.
Just a little advise for the Biden team: Since all of America recognizes it for the political pablum that it represents, and administration officials certainly are NOT ‘The Beatles’, perhaps grandpa can give the “come together” tune a rest since the ONLY coalescing taking place in America is against him.

James Comer is providing the deposit information.
What possible legitimate excuses are there?
But no public outrage over naked corruption at the highest level?
I stopped watching television in 1966, before I went in the Army. I did it to avoid being brainwashed. Apparently I was successful. I’m now a fringe element.
Ugly Sid says
I wonder if the “key word” prompting moderation isn’t actually punctuation with a question mark.

Biden like Clinton, and Obama is a Globalists why else is this Socialists trying to cut off our Fossil Fuel while kissing Chinas Rings
Kasandra says
He should have spontaneously combusted for even uttering the words “unity” or “come together.” He’s the most divisive President of my lifetime and I date back to Truman. No previous president of my lifetime called his political opponents “semi-fascists,” said that they wanted to “destroy democracy,” were the heirs of Bull Connor, wanted children having “gender dysphoria” to kill themselves, or expressly and deliberately made staffing choices on the basis of race and sex. And now he talks about unity? Does he actually believe anybody but his most dedicated sycophants is listening?
World@70 says
If that many Dems think America isnb’t great thrn who? Maybe the Duchy of Grand Fenwick.
Ugly Sid says
A cynic might suppose Joe’s principle interest is mercantile.
How much can selling this place out produce in revenue? Who’s my market? How is bidding initiated, and who promotes the bidding, and funnels the proceeds back? Where can I find staff that is loyal and observes “omerta“?
The family that preys together, stays together.

Walt Whitman said………”The best place in the world is where the best people are.”
But I wouldn’t expect a corrupt pervert and simpleton like Biden to understand that.
