Former US President Calls the United States, Once a Beacon of Freedom, Now Fallen into Darkness!
Joe referred to the past few months of the new president's inauguration as dark days, urging Americans to remain optimistic and not respond to the current president's restrictions on freedom and executive power.
"Since its founding, the United States has been a beacon of the most powerful idea of government in world history. This idea is stronger than any army, and we are stronger than any single genius."
Joe believes that the United States depends on a president with limited power, a functioning Congress, and an independent judiciary, but all of this now seems to have disappeared.
"Friends, I cannot sugarcoat it; these are dark days."
Nevertheless, Joe still holds hope for the future, saying, "This country will once again find our true compass and rise as we always have—stronger, wiser, more resilient, and more just, as long as we maintain our faith."
The former president called on the American people to stand up: "America is not a fairy tale. For 250 years, it has been a continuous struggle between pushing and pulling, a battle for survival between danger and possibility."
