For weeks upon weeks now, President Trump’s legal team has brought challenges against the 2020 presidential race. The lawsuits, cases, and appeals have engendered little change; courts from local bodies to the U.S. Supreme Court have tossed out suits to challenge the election’s outcome.
Yesterday, the Electoral College gathered to officially vote on the winner of the 2020 presidential election winner. Ultimately, this body determined that Biden won the race and solidified this during their voting sessions.
Following the votes from the Electoral College, Biden delivered some remarks before the nation. Breitbart News confirms that the former vice president used his speech to attack President Trump and the Americans who passionately support him.
Biden’s Message to the Nation
Ultimately, Biden’s message to the nation yesterday involved sanctimonious outrage that anyone has dared to question or challenge the outcome of this election. While the Democrat spoke about violence directed towards election workers and himself, he did not criticize the violence that Trump supporters have often faced at the hands of Antifa in the streets.
Biden is trying to convince people that he is legitimate and he looks desperate. The truth is he really is not legitimate. The media covered up damaging news stories about his family and the social media companies censored those stories. They had to drag him over the finish line.

Biden then took the time to censure President Trump’s track record in the White House. He went after the president for the termination of now-former cybersecurity chief Chris Krebs; this came before Biden ironically called for unity and healing, after trashing half of the nation and ignoring the political left’s role in partisan divisiveness.
Conservatives have largely denounced Biden’s speech as polarizing and hypocritical.
The Inevitable Backlash
When the former vice president spoke to the nation yesterday, it was more than apparent that reaching across the political aisle wasn’t his goal. Conservatives noticed this and therefore didn’t hesitate to react accordingly.

The content of Biden’s speech faced intense censure; however, his demeanor while addressing the nation also engendered pushback. The former vice president frequently cleared his throat and coughed a lot, inevitably spreading germs; putting this aside, Biden also appeared fatigued and completely out of it, rather than energized.
As such, Americans who have raised concerns about Biden’s mental and physical fitness continued to assert that he’s not up for the job of leading America. Ultimately, folks who have supported and backed Biden throughout the 2020 election lauded his speech; however, the Democrat ultimately failed at reaching out across the aisle for the “unity and healing” he briefly mentioned.
