It’s fright month in Joe Biden’s America, folks. Today, 5 January, the US President will travel to Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, to mark the third anniversary of the riot on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC on 6 January 2021. He would have done it on the day but the event had to be rescheduled due to an incoming storm. Biden also likes to rest on the weekends.
Still, near the spot where George Washington and his continental army survived the brutal Revolutionary War winter of 1777-78, the increasingly ethereal 46th president will endeavour to summon the tough ghosts of America’s founding. He will deliver yet another warning about the petrifying threat which ‘MAGA extremists’ (i.e. Donald Trump supporters) pose to the soul of the nation.
According to the Democrats’ preferred narrative, the ugly scenes of 6 January mark the climax of tragedy that was the Trump years
On Monday, in case anybody is struggling to connect the dots, Biden will go on to Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina, where in 2015 an armed Neo-Nazi lunatic called Dylann Roof killed nine African-American Christians.
