Democrats’ Lies Exposed as Obamas Advocate for Decency in America
Democrats not only see themselves as defenders of “democracy,” but they also claim to uphold decency.
However, based on the events of the second day of the Democratic National Convention, it seems that the left cannot claim the moral high ground.
At the DNC, truth seemed to be in short supply. For instance, Democrats made false claims that Trump had referred to the Tiki Torch Nazis in Charlottesville as “very fine people.”
They also wrongly accused the former president of suggesting Americans should “inject bleach” during the COVID pandemic.

Chuck Schumer, who has ignored the anti-Semitism in his party, accused Trump of promoting anti-Semitism.
Several speakers warned that Trump would ban in vitro fertilization, despite his stance against such limits on fertility treatments.
The presence of former president Barack Obama, who is considered to have polarized American politics significantly, on the second night of the DNC was noteworthy.
The Obamas’ empty religious sentiments and hypocritical moralizing were evident throughout the event.
Follow along with The Post’s live reporting of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
Michelle accused anyone opposing the Democratic nominee Kamala Harris of racism and misogyny, a strategy similar to the Obamas’ during their time in the White House.
During Obama’s speech, he criticized the ugliness of modern American politics and mocked Trump’s obsession with crowd sizes.
Obama blamed the division in America on citizens themselves, accusing Republicans of being hateful individuals.
As George Will pointed out, Obama often creates false arguments to attack.
Obama’s call for a return to decency was ironic, considering his own vice president, Joe Biden, had been in office for nearly four years without significant change.
Even Kamala Harris, who had also held office for almost four years, had not made politics less divisive or lives more joyful.
American politics has been indecent for a long time, as exemplified by the events at the DNC.
