Gingrich: Joe Biden’s 4th Of July Speech Possibly The Most “Anti-American” Speech By A Presidential Candidate Ever
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich comments on Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s Fourth of July speech, saying that it “may be the most anti-American speech ever given by an American presidential candidate.”
Sleepy Joe delivered a short video speech on Twitter from his home in Wilmington, Delaware, last July 4. In his short speech, Biden said that the Americans now have the chance to give the marginalized, the demonized, and the oppressed, a full share of the American dream. He added that America finally has the chance to “rip the roots of systemic racism out of this country.”

Our nation was founded on a simple idea: We're all created equal. We've never lived up to it — but we've never stopped trying. This Independence Day, let's not just celebrate those words, let's commit to finally fulfill them. Happy #FourthOfJuly! pic.twitter.com/1WrATlx8Xl

Then, former House Speaker Gingrich reacted to Biden’s speech in a long Twitter thread, starting off by saying that Sleepy Hoe’s 245-word 97-second long Fourth of July message may be the “most anti-American speech ever given by an American presidential candidate.”
Gingrich called out Biden for omitting the Creator in his “shortened version” of the Declaration of Independence.
Biden admits “all men are created equal”but in the modern secular left fashion forgets to mention that they are created by God and their rights come from God.Then he defames Jefferson limiting the Founding Father, Founder of the University of Virginia, etc to one idea-slaveowner

He also pointed out that Biden snubbed numerous other great men and just focused on his own biased message. Then proceeded to enumerate various historic events in America.
Biden then skips killing volunteer civil rights workers in Mississippi, the courage of the sit ins, Eisenhower sending in US Army to integrate Little Rock schools against a Democratic Governor,JFK fighting segregation in Mississippi and Alabama to one ugly symbol Bull Connor

Then he said that Biden now claims that he would change America, just now even after nearly half a century of service. “Apparently in Biden’s America, there has been no progress,” Gingrich added.
Biden’s America is “the marginalized, the demonized, the isolated, the oppressed” so after 48 years in Washington Biden will now fix everything he failed to fix for nearly a half century. Apparently in Biden’s America there has been no progress

He followed that tweet up by enumerating the great progress America has gone through, in terms of including and giving positions in the government to the members of the Black community. It seemed like Biden forgot that he served alongside a Black president himself.
America has had a Black President,22 Black Cabinet Officers, 2 Black Supreme Court Justices, 224 other Black federal judges, 10 Black US Senators,153 elected Black members of the US House, and nearly 400 Black admirals and generals. 39 of the 100 largest cities have Black Mayors.

As opposed to his criticism of Biden’s statements, Gingrich praised President Donald Trump’s speech at Mt. Rushmore on Friday, saying that the speech might just win Trump the reelection in November.
