Joe Wants Roe

The Death Rattle of the Last Democrat Male President

“Hey, President Biden, what’s your #1 priority for a second term?”

“Restore Roe. Abortion. Top thing we’ll do.”

* * *

Joe Biden kicked off his reelection campaign and listed his #1 priority:

Restoring Roe v. Wade and abortion on demand.

Biden wants to spend his political capital first and foremost on passing a federal law that would make tax payer funded abortion mandatory and remove any limitations on when you can get an abortion.

If that sounds insane, there is a good reason that Joe wants Roe:

MONEY and VOTES.

An alternate theory of the Biden answer to “what is your #1 priority” is that he is pandering to his base and his base is women. He doesn’t care about anything else.

He sees votes in Roe: at this moment in history, Biden is a man leading a women’s party. The Democrat Party focuses on women almost exclusively. (His campaign actually listed 3 priorities: restore Roe, limit gun rights, cheap insulin - these three pander to young women, suburban women, and black women respectively.

Now, it used to be that a President would talk about the middle class and what they need. And a Democrat President would talk about unions and union jobs.

This is why we should always follow the money: abortion big business Planned Parenthood of America gets almost $940 million US tax dollars each year. So, with our tax dollars, Planned Parenthood spends HUGE amounts to hire and employ Democrat-leaning workers. That’s their political army. Also, Planned Parenthood supports Democrat candidates directly in their elections. If you are pro-life and try to run as a Democrat, Planned Parenthood affiliated folks will beat you. (The last pro-life Democrat, incumbent Cong. Dan Lipinski, was beat in his primary by a Pelosi-AOC-Planned Parenthood candidate!)

I spoke of this at greater length last night on my radio show. Listen more here:

For your reference, here is the Transcript of the Biden Campaign appearance on Meet the Press - January 7, 2024

MEET THE PRESS:

You talk about democracy being on the ballot. Some top Democratic lawmakers say, "Okay, good to be focused on former President Trump, but you've got to talk about what a second Biden agenda would look like.” What would on day one President Biden's top priority be?

QUENTIN FULKS, DEPUTY CAMPAIGN MANAGER FOR JOE BIDEN:

Well, look, the president announced this campaign with the moniker of "Finish the job, and protecting freedom and democracy." So when we talk about that, let's look at it. First of all, Roe. The president has been adamant that we need to restore Roe. It is unfathomable that women today wake up in a country with less rights than their ancestors had years ago. Number two, the president has already done a lot to prevent gun violence. He passed the bipartisan Safer Communities Act. He's established an office for gun violence prevention. But we have to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Three, the fact that millions of Americans are still paying thousands of dollars a month for medicine – a lifesaving drug that a patent was sold for $1, for insulin. We have to cap the cost of insulin for everyone. And then number four, the president has already forgiven over $132 billion for student loan debt for 3.6 million Americans, and there's billions more to be forgiven. And so that's what the president means by "finishing the job."
