US President Joe Biden launched a scathing attack on the American right that adopts the ideas of former President Donald Trump. Biden described the American right as the "most extremist political organization" in modern history, and called his economic program "extremism".
This is a reference to his Republican predecessor, who adopted the slogan "Make America Great Again" (MAGA).
Biden's comments came in response to journalists' questions about threats to the right to abortion after the disclosure of an internal US Supreme Court document indicating that it was preparing to repeal this right, which was established in 1973.
It is noteworthy that the “Politico” website published a few days ago a draft decision to abolish the right to abortion, and said that the members of the court had approved it by a majority, and it was dated on the tenth of last February, and was drafted by conservative judge Samuel Alito, but this text is still the subject of discussion among members The court is awaiting its final version before next June.
The balance of power within the Supreme Court changed radically during the era of former President Donald Trump, who appointed 3 of its judges - 9 out of them - and chose them all from conservatives. A two-thirds majority in it became conservative (6 vs. 3).
After the right to abortion, Biden said, conservatives could roll back other accomplishments;
Such as the "right to private life" which is the basis for the jurisprudence behind the right to abortion, and which the Supreme Court is now contesting.
He expressed his fear of "what will happen if a state says that LGBT children can no longer go to the same classrooms as other children."
Biden - the Democrat who is campaigning for the legislative elections scheduled for next November - described the economic program of the Republicans as "extreme", and said they wanted to "raise taxes" on the middle class.
These criticisms come after the nomination of JD Vance - supported by Trump - was confirmed for the Republican Party in the important Senate elections in Ohio, and described the right-wing primaries in the American Midwest state as a test of Donald Trump's influence on the Republican Party.
