Jill Biden to LGBTQ Activists: Trump is a Bully, You Know

Jill Biden spoke to volunteers at the Human Rights Campaign and described Donald Trump as a bully and dangerous. 

She called on the audience to “fight like hell” to get her husband re-elected. She was appealing to a crowd of about 500, telling them that President Biden strongly advocates for gay rights. 

‘Donald Trump is a bully,’ she said to cheers from the crowd. ‘He is dangerous to the LGBTQ community, to our families, to our country and we cannot let him win. We have to fight like h*** until Joe and Kamala have another term.’

It’s Jill who is running for re-election. She wants to hold on to whatever power she is given in the White House. Instead of helping her demented husband gracefully retire from politics after 50 years, she insists he run for re-election. Jill often speaks as though she is the one in charge.

During her speech, she said Republicans are trying to win the “hard-won gains” that the Biden administration has made on behalf of the LGBTQ community. 

“They want to take our victories away but we won’t let them,” Biden said. “Your president will not let them. I will not let them.”

She will not let them. Ugh. 

The victories of the Biden administration that she referenced included signing the Respect for Marriage Act, ending a ban on blood donations from gay and bisexual men, transgenders serving openly in the military now, and the administration opposes conversation therapy. 

LGBTQ voters overwhelmingly supported Joe Biden in 2020. Jill Biden was sent to persuade these volunteer activists to get involved with the Biden campaign. She told a story from her childhood to spotlight her hatred of bullies. It was when the 71-year-old first lady was 13 years old and she confronted a neighborhood kid who was bullying her younger sister Bonnie. She punched him in the face. 

‘I had no idea what I was going to say to him. But when he opened the door without thinking I pulled back and punched him right in the face,’ she said.

She then used her story as a warning that bullies must be stopped. 

‘When bullies threaten our loved ones, when they strip away our basic rights and deny our basic humanity, when they put our country and our democracy at risk, there’s only one thing to do: we fight,’ she said.

‘We have to begin now.’

Are we to believe that story or is it just more of the Biden fairytales we hear from Creepy Joe? I guess she wanted to look tough, as Joe does when he says things like he’d take Trump behind the gym if he was a younger man and beat him up. Who are the bullies here?

Jill is a teacher at a community college in Virginia. She spoke about Trump’s threat to democracy, a popular criticism that the campaign is using against the opponent they are working to keep off the ballot. 

Shouldn’t Jill know we live in a constitutional republic, not a democracy? 

Joe Biden told a mostly black audience in 2012 that Mitt Romney wanted to put them back in chains. Jill Biden said that Republicans want to take away their rights.

‘History teaches us that our rights and our freedoms don’t disappear overnight. They disappear slowly, suddenly, silently: a book ban, a court decision, a don’t say gay law,’ she said.

‘One group of people loses their rights and then another and then another. Until one morning you wake up and you no longer live in a democracy.’

Donald Trump named Richard Grenell as Acting Director of National Intelligence in February 2020. Grenell was the first openly gay person to serve in any president’s cabinet. Sorry, Joe. Biden touts Mayor Pete as the first openly gay member of a cabinet but it was Grenell, even if the title was an “acting” one. 

The Human Rights Campaign launched  “Out for Biden-Harris” this week. It is an initiative to mobilize LGBTQ voters. The Biden campaign is desperately trying to hold together the various groups of voters who were essential to his victory in 2020. He is hemorrhaging support among black voters, Hispanic voters, and young voters. Black men, in particular, are moving away from Biden. 

Joe Biden looks weak. He is fading before our eyes. There is no amount of name-calling from Jill Biden that will change that. He’s old and not aging well. There is no fixing that. 

The Human Rights Campaign, the National Center for Transgender Equality, and Equality PAC have all endorsed President Biden for a second term.
