The MAGA Republicans think Joe Biden is being mean to them.
You read that right.
Followers of Donald Trump, a man who denigrates his rivals as SOBs, sickos, dummies, losers, wackos and scum, a man who has accused Biden of corruption and cognitive decline, say they are affronted at the way Biden has treated them.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy even demanded an apology after Biden said MAGA Republicans embrace “semi-fascism.”
Then came last week’s fiery speech from Independence Hall in Philadelphia in which Biden said MAGA Republicans — he’s always careful to draw that distinction — represent “an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.”
Given the republic is still reeling from the day Trump sent armed MAGA Republicans to attack the Capitol, that would seem inarguable.
