The president atop the party of “joy” served up some eyebrow-raising rhetoric about where he’d like to “smack” Republicans.
“Sounds more like what White Guys for Harris do.”
After President Joe Biden’s “garbage” remarks prompted a legally questionable response from the White House and sucked all the air out of Vice President Kamala Harris’ Ellipse speech, few would have questioned the rationale behind pulling the octogenarian from the campaign trail.
Instead, “Lunch Bucket Joe” was dispatched to the Union Brotherhood of Carpenters & Joiners of America Local 445 union hall in Scranton, Pennsylvania where his tough guy talk took on a “Pride”-ful double meaning.
“But I’m serious, these are the kind of guys you’d like to smack in the a**!” said the president as he gritted his teeth.

In leading up to the latest instance of violent rhetoric from the Democratic Party, Biden had stated, “There’s one more thing Trump and his Republican friends want to do. They want another giant tax cut for the wealthy.”
“Now, I know some of you guys are tempted to think it’s macho guys,” continued the commander-in-chief with a likely unintended nod to the Village People. “I tell you what, man, when I was in Scranton, I used to, we used to have a little trouble going down the Plot once in a while from Green Ridge.”
At its surface, the remark was readily called out on social media for alluding to violence against the Republican Party whose presidential nominee had experienced multiple attempts on his life four years after Aaron Danielson, a member of the conservative group Patriot Prayer, had been fatally shot in Portland, Oregon after being singled out as a supporter of then-President Donald Trump.

Why is the sitting President advocating for violence? Now imagine if Trump had said that.

Is he going to be investigated for inciting violence?

Holy smokes, they let him out again?

Despite the corresponding aggressive expression to emphasize the intent, many harkened back to days earlier when Biden had referred to Trump supporters as “garbage,” leading to an attempted realtime revision of the statement with the addition of an apostrophe.
Of course, it was too late to contain the fallout from the latest addition of “deplorables” as the GOP leader capitalized on the moment by arriving in Wisconsin in a garbage truck while supporters across the country headed to the polls or out on Halloween garbed with trash bags.

I’m sure there’s an apostrophe we’re all missing that makes that sound perfectly normal.

This has to be intentional at this point right?
He hates Kamala.

Violence wasn’t the only takeaway from the “smack” comment though as others followed the yellow brick road in questioning why it was that the White House resident specifically wanted to lash out at Republican rumps.
This included the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, who reminded that only day’s earlier Harris’ running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz had referred to him as “that gay guy.”
“He called me ‘gay’ and now he wants to touch my ass…” wrote Musk as others commented on how the “weird” Democrat Party had projected once again.
The Democrat Party is weird.
