Historians privately warn Biden that America’s democracy is teetering
Poast new message in this thread
Date: August 10th, 2022 10:10 PM Author: Trip feces President Biden paused last week, during one of the busiest stretches of his presidency, for a nearly two-hour private history lesson from a group of academics who raised alarms about the dire condition of democracy at home and abroad.
The conversation during a ferocious lightning storm on Aug. 4 unfolded as a sort of Socratic dialogue between the commander in chief and a select group of scholars, who painted the current moment as among the most perilous in modern history for democratic governance, according to multiple people familiar with the discussions who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe a private meeting.
Comparisons were made to the years before the 1860 election when Abraham Lincoln warned that a “house divided against itself cannot stand” and the lead-up to the 1940 election, when President Franklin D. Roosevelt battled rising domestic sympathy for European fascism and resistance to the United States joining World War II. |
Date: August 10th, 2022 10:11 PM Author: Trip feces The diversion was, for Biden, part of a regular effort to use outside experts, in private White House meetings, to help him work through his approach to multiple crises facing his presidency. Former president Bill Clinton spoke with Biden in May about how to navigate inflation and the midterm elections. A group of foreign policy experts, including former Republican advisers, came to the White House in January to brief Biden before the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
These meetings have come as Biden faces the isolation that is endemic to presidency, a problem that some Democrats say has been worsened by the coronavirus pandemic, which restricted visitors through much of the first year of his presidency, and by the insular quality of Biden’s inner circle, made up of staffers who have worked with him for decades. |

As some participants, including McFaul and Stavridis, appeared remotely on a screen, Biden began with brief comments and then spent about two hours asking questions.
“They really wanted outside-the-box thinking of, is there any way that this war, which will be horrible for everyone involved, can be stopped? Can we stop it? |

Date: August 10th, 2022 10:14 PM Author: Trip feces At a news conference in January, Biden said a priority of his second year in office was to get more input from academia, editorial writers, think tanks and other outside experts. “Seeking more input, more information, more constructive criticism about what I should and shouldn’t be doing,” he told reporters.
Some meetings have been more exclusive. At a private lunch with Biden on May 2, Clinton praised his successor’s efforts to build a multinational coalition supporting Ukraine. |

Date: August 11th, 2022 12:58 PM Author: Trip feces Theory: Ukraine was not discussed on this call. The call was on August 4, the warrant went out on August 5. They are calling McFaul a "historian" because he has an appointment at Brookings. He qualifies as an academic, an op-ed writer, and a think tank. No other names are mentioned but he is mentioned twice. He's an old Russia hand who thought he could borrow a page from from FSB. He's done it a billion times and got away with it so why wouldn't it work this time? He's probably compromised up the ass too after being Obama's top Russia spy at a time when Russia was running train on social media and even traditional US media. This failed piece of shit told Biden to do it and Sullivan didn't push back. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5171231&forum_id=2#44999342) |
