Joe Biden and his fellow Democrats have acted like more of a “king” than Donald Trump

So called King Donald Trump He ran in two contested Republican primaries.

He ran for office three times in the general elections.

He has been elected twice, and his party recently won the Republican House of Representatives.

In contrast, in 2020, former President Joe Biden did not run a typical campaign.

He avoided the public and remained hidden in his basement. He outsourced his campaign to Democratic politicians, donors and media sycophants.

No red state has ever sought to remove Biden or former Vice President Kamala Harris from the 2024 ballot. In contrast, 25 blue states have tried to remove Trump from their ballots.

In 2021, the Department of Justice under Biden and The FBI raided former President Trump’s home. They found only 102 confidential documents out of about 14,000 documents seized, but they nevertheless charged him.

There was no such raid on Biden’s multiple repositories of illegally removed secret documents.

And they were all in less safe places than they were at Mar-a-Lago. Biden has removed them over three decades with impunity. At the time, unlike Trump, he had no presidential powers to declassify it.

Special counsel Robert Hoare found Biden guilty of removing these files but declined to prosecute, claiming he was too weak to stand trial.

In 2024, the same donors and politicians who conspired to ensure Biden would be the 2020 nominee have now, against his wishes, in coup-like fashion, removed him from his re-election ticket.

Within 48 hours, without a delegate vote, they crowned Harris the presumptive nominee. Queen Harris didn’t pick up a single delegate vote in her disastrous 2020 primary campaign.

In 2020, Trump did not criticize his Justice Department over his rival Biden.

During his presidency, the Department of Justice did not indict any former or future political opponent or former president.

In return, Kingley’s White House helped Biden coordinate 91 indictments of his former and future presidential rival, former President Trump.

Just three days after Trump announced his re-election bid on November 15, 2022, Jack Smith was coincidentally appointed Trump’s special prosecutor.

On the same day, strangely, Nathan Wade, the Georgia district attorney prosecuting Trump, met with Biden’s lawyers at the White House.

On the same day, Matthew Colangelo, the former prosecutor in the Letitia James v. Trump case, said, He suddenly left his position at the Ministry of Justice. He will soon go on to lead Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s prosecution of Trump.

In the 2020 election, Joe Biden’s representatives assembled 51 “intelligence authorities” to lie that Hunter Biden’s original laptop — which was then verified but suppressed by the FBI — was the real laptop. The Russians worked.

Biden’s FBI also joined Twitter, Facebook and other social media to help prevent any media story that may have verified the authenticity of the laptop.

The left portrays Trump’s constitutional right to pardon as an act of the king.

During his nearly five years in office, Trump has pardoned nearly 1,700 people, including about 1,500 collectively for those convicted in the Jan. 6 protests.

This number so far is about 200 less Amnesty is what was the case during the Obama administration.

In just four years in office, Biden has pardoned nearly 4,245 people — the vast majority of them through automated signatures and without the full knowledge of Biden himself.

Under the Obama and Biden administrations, left-wing government lawbreakers and White House allies were never prosecuted for their criminal conduct.

CIA Director John Brennan He admitted to lying twice To Congress.

Director of National Intelligence James Clapper admitted to lying under oath to Congress as well.

Director of the FBI James Comey claimed ignorance Or losing memory 245 times while taking an oath before the House Oversight Committee.

Temporary FBI Director Andrew McCabe lied Four times, often while under oath before government investigators.

In 2020, a federal judge warned John Bolton, Trump’s former national security adviser and vocal critic, that he had endangered national security by removing sensitive documents to write memos during the anti-Trump campaign cycle.

Bolton also warned that he could face civil and criminal penalties.

None of these political nobles have been indicted by either Obama or Biden’s Justice Department.

Trump’s advisors in the White House Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro They were publicly arrested for ignoring a congressional subpoena, convicted, and imprisoned.

In contrast, top Democratic officials, such as former Attorneys General Eric Holder and Merrick Garland, ignored congressional subpoenas and faced no such indictments.

Kings may order the assassination of American citizens abroad and monitor the phone records of Associated Press reporters.

Obama did both during his term.

Do kings monitor the phone records of their opponents in the Senate? This is what Biden’s special advisor, Jack Smith, did.

So why do Democrats’ “No Kings” protests claim that Trump is a king?

Answer: Through open and fair elections, the left lost most of its previous political power in Congress, the White House, and the Supreme Court.

Now, in their anger and impotence, Democrats have taken to the streets, demonstrating to their hated enemy, Trump, their previous preferences for monarchical ways.
