President Biden’s recent fundraiser in Westchester County, New York, sparked controversy due to the extensive disruptions it caused. The event, held at the mansion of actor Michael Douglas, featured general admission tickets starting at $3,300 and reportedly raised at least $10 million for Biden’s re-election campaign.
However, the fundraiser came at a cost to the local community. Schools were closed starting at 11 a.m., and all after-school activities were canceled. Police urged people to avoid traveling in the area, and a vast security corridor was established for the president’s visit.
Residents expressed frustration over the disruption caused by the event. Some questioned whether it was appropriate for the president to impose such restrictions on their daily lives. The article compares the disruptions to medieval peasants offering thanks for their crops being trampled by the king’s courtiers.
The article also criticizes Biden’s spending policies, including his $6 billion handout to Micron Technology for a semiconductor factory and his plan to forgive student loan debt. It argues that these policies are reckless and will lead to a deepening of the national debt.
The article concludes by contrasting Biden’s behavior with that of former President Donald Trump, who is currently embroiled in a legal battle. The author implies that the Democrats are unfairly targeting Trump while ignoring the excesses of Biden’s own administration.
