Immigrant's response to Biden's anti MAGA speech
An immigrant from Ghana who became an American citizen in 2021 is sending a strong message to Joe Biden after the president’s divisive speech in Philadelphia during which he smeared MAGA Republicans with a litany of unfounded allegations.

“And to hear the President of America and the leader of the free world dismiss more than 70 million of his own countrymen as fringe and extreme and not worth listening to, breaks my heart…,” he said.
“We are MAGA because we believe in freedom of speech, the freedom to exercise our religion. We believe in limited government and the rule of law. We are MAGA because we love the Constitution and believe our founders established a means for we, the people, to defend it from enemies, both foreign and domestic,” Ohene-Opare explained in the soliloquy.
“I am MAGA because I want to be able to look into the eyes of my four black children to assure them that they’re not victims, that they hold inside them what it takes to achieve anything they set their hearts on. We believe our leaders should put America and its interest first before any other nation,” he added.

Ohene-Opare noted that he came to the U.S. at 19, and after about two decades, he was granted American citizenship.
Come November, the self-described conservative Republican, will be a first-time voter.
“I understand the urge during an election season to attack those you see as political opponents, but, Mr. President, I am not your enemy. And the tens of millions of MAGA Republicans are not filled with hate towards anyone. We love this country.

Biden and other Democrats are having a difficult time dealing with people who dissent from their agenda. They need to understand why people do not agree with them and address those concerns instead of their current responses.
