President Biden: Your senator Ted Budd called the infrastructure law 'a liberal Trojan horse for a socialist agenda.' [View all]

I love how Biden can dish it out for those who deserve his wrath!!

President Biden: Your senator Ted Budd called the infrastructure law ‘a liberal Trojan horse for a socialist agenda.’ I don't know about you, but I don't think ensuring kids can drink clean water to avoid brain damage is a socialist agenda. I think it's just plain decency. But as you might guess, the senator hasn't been shy. He's asked on 10 separate occasions for new funding in those very laws. As they say, God bless the boy. I didn't think the senator was a socialist. But that's okay, I promised to be a president for all Americans. So, senator I'll see you at the groundbreaking

Interesting how the GOP has rediscovered an obsession with socialism. Eisenhower probably did more for infrastructure Martin68 May 2 #13
