President Joe Biden’s speech in Chicago on Monday night reveals the true nature of today’s Democratic Party. As the world now knows, he obviously had no concept of anything being done in his name over the past four years. Instead, his presidency was a joint project of his longtime advisers, important Democratic constituencies, his vice president, and that nice Filipino lady who helps him to the commode several times a day.

That’s the only explanation for why this aggressively moderate Democrat presided over the most left-wing administration in U.S. history. The committee actually running the government managed to push through nearly everything on progressives’ wish list: fully open borders; 66% of judicial nominees women, and 66% minorities; the first transgender Cabinet member; student loan forgiveness; a major clamp-down on oil production, and on and on.

So what did the id of the Democratic Party have to say for itself the other night?

Biden began with the lie he’s been repeating since announcing for president in 2019: that Donald Trump called neo-Nazis “very fine people.” This yarn has just surpassed “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion” as the most debunked hoax in all of recorded history.

What Trump actually said is on videotape. Could somebody on Biden’s staff look it up? For the 8 millionth time, Trump said:

“You had people — and I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally. But you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists. OK? And the press has treated them absolutely unfairly.

"Now, in the other group also, you had some fine people. But you also had troublemakers …”

Biden’s entire presidency is based on this lie. Despite having run for president about 47 times before, he says the only reason he ran in 2020 was because Trump called Nazis “very fine people.”

What kind of sociopath repeats the same lie, in defiance of video evidence, for five years?

The kind of sociopath whose followers know he’s lying and don’t care, also known as “joyous warriors.” (Also, mere simpletons.)

Biden boasted of the amazing things he’s accomplished as president, starting with: “COVID no longer controls our lives.”

You know who else can gloat about that exact same accomplishment? Russian President Vladimir Putin. North Korea’s Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un. Uganda’s president Yoweri Kaguta Museveni Tibuhaburwa.

This is like bragging that no hurricanes hit New York for the past four years because of your leadership.

In a surprise move, Biden claimed, “We’re providing affordable high-speed internet for every American no matter where they live, unlike, not unlike what Roosevelt did with electricity.”

Oops! Despite allocating $42 billion to the project, the Biden administration has not connected one single home to the internet. Did the Biden Presidency Committee read his speech before wheelbarrowing him onto the convention stage? Maybe ix-nay on the ighspeed-hay internet-way.

Delusionally, Biden said, “Trump continues to lie about crime in America like everything else. Guess what? On his watch, the murder rate went up 30%, the biggest increase in history.”

Yes — entirely because of the hell unleashed on the country after the death of George Floyd, Peace Be Upon Him. Which party was inciting the BLM riots, again? Take all the time you need.

Apparently, the Democrats’ argument is:

— It’s Trump’s fault that the Democratic Party and media helpers responded to Floyd’s death by whipping BLM and antifa into a murderous rage.

— It’s Trump’s fault that Biden’s own vice president — and the Democrats’ current nominee for president — contributed to a Minnesota bail fund for the rioters.

— It’s Trump’s fault that the Democrats’ nominee for vice president, Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota, intentionally allowed Minneapolis to burn for four days before sending in the National Guard.

The Democratic Party is either brain-dead or just hopes most voters are.

Biden continued: “Now, the murder rate is falling faster than any time in history. Violent crime has dropped to the lowest level in more than 50 years.”

It’s at least counterintuitive that crime decreased under the party that hates cops, wants to defund the police and refuses to prosecute criminals. In fact, it’s a bald-faced lie.

Biden is referring to FBI crime reports that even the FBI says are meaningless. Because of a glitch in reporting over the past few years, the bureau is missing crime reports from about a third of the country, including peaceful little burgs like New York City, Los Angeles and Chicago. When you exclude crimes from one-third of the country, you will end up with fewer crimes. That’s a government screw-up, not a statistic.

For the real numbers, Biden could check with his own Department of Justice. According to the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), violent crime has skyrocketed under his administration.

Biden also trotted out the Democrats’ favorite witticism that was a bad joke five minutes after it launched: “Crime will keep coming down when we put a prosecutor in the Oval Office instead of a convicted felon.”

As everyone knows by now, when Harris was California’s attorney general, she tricked voters into supporting Propositions 47 and 57, legalizing most felonies and releasing thousands of violent criminals from prison. It was her job to give the propositions titles and descriptions, so she lied. And that’s how the Democrats turned the most beautiful state in the Union into an open-air latrine for the criminally insane.

Testifying to the sterling character of Harris and her husband, Biden said, “The ancient Greeks taught us that character is destiny. Character is destiny. For me and Jill, we know Kamala and Doug are people of character.”

Not to be a stickler, but Doug cheated on his first wife with his kids’ nanny and got her pregnant, while Kamala had an open affair with a married man, Willie Brown.

Someone at the Biden Brain Trust might want to do a Google search on the word “character.”
