President Biden on Thursday responded to former President Trump’s Christmas post with a religious message to love your enemies.
Trump’s unusual Christmas message, which he shared on Truth Social, called for various people he sees as “looking to destroy” the nation to “rot in Hell.”
Biden shared an article from The Hill about Trump’s post on X, formerly known as Twitter, and added a message to poke at the former president.
“There’s an expression they say in church sometimes: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you,” the president said.
They both do. In fact, Trump much moreso.
Biden is (rightly) getting tons of shit for it because he’s supposed to represent everyone to the left of American fascism, which doesn’t include supporting genocide and otherwise propping up Israeli fascism.
Neither of them is the good guy. There’s awful guy and many times worse guy.
Most Americans agree with you (and me) that it’s undemocratic and should change. The people with the power overwhelmingly don’t, though, since they’re on average much richer, older and more authoritarian than the population in general.
Also, they don’t want to jeopardize their legal bribes.
