In his 2020 memoir, “A Promised Land,” Barack Obama had the nerve to quote the great Soviet dissident writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.
Said Obama about contemporary Russian politics, quoting Solzhenitsyn, “The lie has become not just a moral category but a pillar of the State.” Admittedly, Donald Trump could BS with the best of them, but unlike Obama and his Mini-Me in the White House, Trump based no policies on lies. Obama did. Joe Biden does.
The overarching lie is the one Adam embraced in Eden when he yielded to the serpent’s plea, “Ye shall be as gods.” The more proximate one is that the world’s most successful political experiment is racist to the core. Indeed, the very idea that Obama would quote Solzhenitsyn on anything is an insult to the man’s memory. Obama, I suspect, hoped the reader had forgotten that he and his woke cronies had canceled Solzhenitsyn many moons ago.
