Aug. 20, 2020, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement reacting to former President Barack Obama’s speech at the Democratic National Convention:
“Last night’s Democrat convention show featuring former President Barack Obama offered revealing insights into their own view of Joe Biden’s vulnerabilities. Obama’s contention that President Trump is not up to the job is clearly his acknowledgement that his former vice president was never competent to be President of the United States, let alone now as Biden’s impairment becomes more and more clear.
“The first clue of Obama’s concern about Biden was found in his last-minute endorsement of the Biden candidacy after all alternatives had been eliminated. Someone who is a political ‘brother’ doesn’t get left publicly begging for an endorsement when it matters most. The second clue was Michelle Obama’s earlier speech in which she spent next to zero time on Biden’s accomplishments as vice president, while going low in an attack on President Trump. You can always tell what the Democrats fear most by what they attack. Just a Hillary’s greatest vulnerability, her ties to Russia, resulted in the DNC producing the Steele dossier, the attacks on the uber successful and competent president Trump reveal the truth about the diminished Biden.”
