Joe Biden believes that if he can out-Trump Trump that he can win those coveted working-class white voters. So he decided to use strategic dog whistles that most did not hear and are not talking about but whose decibel level is blowing my head apart.
Why did he need to decorate his statement anywhere with “he never called me boy, he always called me, son.” — “At least there was some civility. We got things done.” Two things were wrong with the statement that had he been empathetic he would realize. First, he was not called “boy” because the racist considered him OK for being white. In other words, he will work with Joe because of that. But to equate the times as civil because of civil discourse between a racist and a purported non-racist tells those who did not know civility in those times when their bodies were always at physical risk and their state of mind under permanent stress, show a lack of sensitivity and empathy beyond reason.
I covered the subject on Politics Done Right recently and got some good discussion on it and other subjects as well. Check out the entire episode here.
Joe Biden and Dog Whistles?
It is still early so there is a good chance he will fade away. I heard recently that the Plutocracy may be rooting for Warren as they see the leftward move of the nation. We need to prevent them from completely taking her soul by being there financially for her.
