President Joe Biden promised to unite the nation, but continues to demonize half the country – while denying he is doing so. In an interview with CBS’ Scott Pelley on 60 Minutes he did it again:
Scott Pelley: Concerning politics, Mr. President, you were elected to the Senate in 1972. You were 29 years old. And in those days, it seemed that the parties worked together to move the country forward. And I think many Americans feel that that no longer happens, and, in fact, may be impossible now.
President Joe Biden: Well, I don’t think it’s impossible. But it– it– it’s changed. What we do today, think about it, it’s all personal attacks. It’s about motive. It’s not about, “I disagree with you on the– on the subject matter. And secondly, I think that– it’s– I think it’s fair to say that we’ve not had a president like the last president, who has made all of it so personal. I’ve had six Republican senators, I promised I’d never say their names and I won’t, come up to me in the last two years and say, “Joe, I agree with you, but if I– if I vote this way it’s gonna– they’re gonna primary me. I’m gonna lose an election.” It didn’t used to be that way. But it’s coming back a little bit. It’s coming back.
