NextImg:The Corner: Biden: Do You Think Trump Will Appoint Any Supreme Court Justice Who Has a Brain?

President Biden, speaking at the NAACP Detroit dinner Saturday:

Trump openly encourages voter suppression and election subversion.

He and his MAGA extremists gutted affirmative action.

Let me ask you: If he’s reelected, who do you think he’ll put on the Supreme Court? You think he’ll put anybody who has a brain?

Apparently, President Biden believes that Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett do not have brains. Now, you don’t have to agree with all of those justices’ decisions to recognize that in their careers, these Ivy League-educated — back when that meant something! — justices proved themselves as accomplished and bright lawyers, prosecutors, law professors and lower-court judges.

So of course Biden’s comment is inaccurate, snide, obnoxious and beneath the office of the president. (If someone wants to point to former president Donald Trump’s plentiful previous snide and obnoxious comments, fine, but I thought the whole point of Biden was that he was supposed to be better than Trump. When Biden runs around sneering that everyone who disagrees with him is an idiot, he’s just an older version of Trump.)

I just want to take you back to Joe Biden’s inaugural address, delivered January 20, 2021:

Today, on this January day, my whole soul is in this:

Bringing America together.

Uniting our people.

And uniting our nation.

I ask every American to join me in this cause.

Uniting to fight the common foes we face:

Anger, resentment, hatred.

Extremism, lawlessness, violence.

Disease, joblessness, hopelessness.

With unity we can do great things. Important things.

Does running around declaring that Supreme Court justices don’t have a brain strike you as a good way to “unite our nation”?
