Biden's brutal honesty is a boon for his administration
President Joe Biden has a sense of humor and is having fun using this sense of humor

Nonetheless, Biden and his team seem to have gotten word that Democrats dig his digs, because on Thursday they went on the offensive. After Republican lawmakers took to Twitter to criticize the debt cancellation plan for being too generous to borrowers, the official White House account retweeted them with info about hefty Covid-era PPP loans they each received from the federal government and had forgiven.
That just about broke the internet on Thursday afternoon. And the brutal honesty continued into the evening. Speaking at a Democratic fundraiser in Maryland, Biden offered his strongest condemnation yet for the movement supporting Donald Trump.
What were seeing now is the beginning or the death knell of an extreme MAGA philosophy," Biden said. "Its not just Trump, its the entire philosophy that underpins the Im going to say something, its like semi-fascism."
We dont often hear him use the word fascism, much less in reference to Americans. But hes absolutely right. Republicans are a semi-fascist party if not worse. We see this in their reverence for authoritarian regimes like those in Russia and Hungary. We see it in their efforts to suppress votes. And we see it in their allegiance to figures who spread fascist conspiracy theories.
Despite Biden's occasionally maddening desire to make nice with a Republican Party that despises him, the past week has seemingly brought Biden into closer alignment with the base of the Democratic Party, the majority of whom think Republicans are immoral, according to recent polling.
