Biden’s Chamber of Confected Hatreds
It was impossible to foretell that the reaction of the post-Reagan bipartisan and political class to its being rejected would be not only to confect defamatory hatred against Trump but of America.

The collapse of the Trump-hate fraud is forcing the American national political media, with infinite regret and trepidation, to subject the Biden Administration to an elemental level of oversight.
When Joe Biden accuses 40 states—including, implicitly, his own home state of Delaware—of “Jim Crow†racial bias in administering elections, the media simply cannot allow such nonsense to go unnoticed. In their delirium of happiness at having won the presidential election, the Democrats naïvely believed that they could go on running against Donald Trump, presumably because they believed that he could not possibly be less noisy and productive of a target-rich area of easily denigrated utterances than he was as president.
The former president has outsmarted his enemies, however, and has graciously allowed his successor to take center stage and blunder and misspeak on a level never approached in the history of his great office. Warren Harding invented the word “bloviate,†and both Presidents Bush were inexhaustible storehouses of malapropisms: “We’ve got them on the run, and they’re running,†said George W. Bush. But with Joe Biden, it never stops.
China’s decision to tear up the Hong Kong treaty with the United Kingdom and its 65 percent reduction of the birth rate of the Uighurs are just “cultural differences.†Anyone who wants any process of verification that voters are who they say they are and are entitled to vote is a racist. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, pretending to be bicycling rather than being conveyed in rich livery in his official car, purports to discern “racism†in the roads and highways of America.
Despite the full metal jacket of media support for Biden, 60 percent of Americans disapprove of his southern border policy. They can’t make anything out of rabid Trump-hating prosecutor Andrew Weissmann’s claims that the prosecution of the former president for—in a phrase of Kafka’s—“nameless crimes†must proceed. They can’t make anything out of the breathless news that former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen is on his ninth visit to the Manhattan district attorney’s office to talk about his former client.
