He spoke of creating <em>&#8220;8.3 million jobs in my first 15 months in office &#8211; a record.&#8221;<\/em> He acknowledged that <em>&#8220;the unemployment rate now stands at 3.6 percent, the fastest decline in unemployment at the start of any President\u2019s term on record.&#8221;<\/em> And he pointed out that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Under my predecessor, the great MAGA king, the deficit increased every single year he was President.  The first year of my presidency &#8211; the first year, I reduced the deficit &#8211; literally reduced the deficit by $350 billion.  First year. And this year &#8211; and this year, we\u2019re on track to cut the federal deficit by 1 trillion 500 billion dollars &#8211; the biggest decline in debt ever in American history.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Biden also spoke about the <em>\u201cUltra-MAGA\u201d<\/em> plan proposed by Republicans that <em>&#8220;raises taxes on 75 million American families&#8221; [and] &#8220;puts Social Security, Medicare &#8230; and Medicaid on the chopping block every five years.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Sadly, albeit predictably, the only thing that the <em>\u201cUltra-MAGA\u201d<\/em> crowd was able to focus on were the buzzwords and Biden&#8217;s compassionate demeanor. Trump himself was elated that Biden referred to him as <em>&#8220;the Great MAGA King&#8221;<\/em> which only affirms his lust for tyrannical power. But nowhere was the <em>&#8220;Biden Derangement Syndrome&#8221;<\/em> more apparent, and abhorrent, than in the reactions by the Republican National Committee and Donald Trump&#8217;s spokes-shill, Liz Harrington.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=52864\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump&#8217;s Spokeswoman Keeps Committing the Same Violations on Twitter that Got Trump Banned<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The RNC watched a clip from Biden&#8217;s speech, which they posted to Twitter believing that his emotional tone of voice somehow made him look bad. Harrington agreed and retweeted the clip with her warped opinion that Biden&#8217;s heartfelt feelings were akin to sociopathy. Biden said&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Remember those long lines you\u2019d see on the television and people lining up in all kinds of vehicles just to get a box of food in their trunk?  How quickly we forget people were hurting. And what did the MAGA crowd want to do?  Forget it.  Forget it. God, this is the United States of America.  The idea that people would have to wait in line an hour or hour and a half to get a box of food in their trunk &#8211; it\u2019s just unbelievable.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And the RNC and Harrington replied&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">This man is a sociopath <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Uj3sKVdOKS\">https:\/\/t.co\/Uj3sKVdOKS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Liz Harrington (@realLizUSA) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realLizUSA\/status\/1524919187684065283?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 13, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>So Harrington thinks that showing concern for the hardships that people endure, and wanting to help them, is <em>&#8220;sociopathic&#8221;<\/em>? That explains a lot. It explains why Republicans are so determined to provide benefits for the wealthy and for greedy corporations. Their definitions are severely distorted in a manner that makes them think that helping ordinary people is an abomination, and therefore, catering to millionaires and billionaires is an act of charity. Thanks for clearing that up, Liz.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:blue;\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Twitter suspended the News Corpse account after 11 years without giving a reason.
