Gutfeld: Biden is waging war on the people of the country

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is expected demand President Biden apologize for allegedly attacking Republican voters during a campaign swing through Scranton, Pa., Thursday.
"Instead of trying to bring our country together to solve these challenges, President Biden has chosen to divide, demean, and disparage his fellow Americans – simply because they disagree with his policies," McCarthy, R-Caif., is expected to say, according to excerpts of the speech obtained by Fox News Digital.
"When the President speaks tonight at Independence Hall, the first lines out of his mouth should be to apologize for slandering tens of millions of Americans as ‘fascists,'" McCarthy is expected to add.
That comment is a response to a recent statement from Biden accusing Republicans of embracing "semi-fascism."

The minority leader's speech is a pre-response to an address Biden is set to make from outside Independence Hall in Philadelphia. The minority leader will focus his remarks heavily on kitchen table issues, including crime, inflation and the economy.
McCarthy is set to appear with Jim Bognet the Republican nominee for Pennsylvania's 8th Congressional district. Bognet is vying against Democratic Rep. Matt Cartwright in a district that former President Donald Trump won in 2020.
Biden is expected to deliver a blistering attack on Republicans during an address from outside Independence Hall in Philadelphia on Thursday. The president will journey to the birthplace of the U.S. Constitution on Thursday to lay out what Democrats see as an indictment against the GOP.

The remarks are expected to be a darker version of the speech Biden often gave on the 2020 campaign trail, comparing the election to a battle for the "soul of the nation." Biden hinted at the tone and substance of the speech during a rally in Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday when accusing Republicans of having abandoned the rule of law.

"You hear some of my friends in the other team talking about political violence and how it’s necessary," the president said. "No one should be encouraged to use political violence."
Republicans have responded to the attacks by accusing Biden of increasing political divisions and stirring the potential for violence.

"Joe Biden's wretched attacks on millions of Americans have fueled attacks on pregnancy centers, Republican offices, and an assassination attempt on a Supreme Court Justice," said Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman of the Republican National Committee.
