    Former Atlanta Mayor and current senior White House adviser Keisha Lance Bottoms (D) said during an interview Sunday morning that President Joe Biden's speech demonizing millions of Americans as extremist threats to the U.S. was needed because the administration believes it has to "call out hatred."

    "Ahead of the president's speech, The White House was insistent the speech would be optimistic, was about bringing people together yet in it, Biden said President Trump's MAGA supporters are a danger to democracy," ABC's Martha Raddatz said on "This Week."

    "How is that a unifying message?" Raddatz asked.

    Bottoms responded by claiming that Biden's goal was to remind "the American people of who we are as a country."

    "So, the president spoke optimistically about who we are as Americans," she continued. "We are the greatest nation in the world. But also a reminder that we have to be intentional about being the greatest nation in the world and that we have to call out hatred. We have to call out this balance and that if we don't, our democracy is in danger."

    TRANSCRIPT:

    MARTHA RADDATZ, ABC NEWS HOST: And let's bring in President Biden's senior adviser and the former mayor of Atlanta, Keisha Lance Bottoms. Good morning, Mayor.

    Ahead of the president's speech, The White House was insistent the speech would be optimistic, was about bringing people together yet in it, Biden said President Trump's MAGA supporters are a danger to democracy. How is that a unifying message?

    KEISHA LANCE BOTTOMS, PRESIDENT BIDEN SENIOR ADVISER: Well, what the president did was that he reminded the American people of who we are as a country. We are a democracy that's been built on the rule of law. We are a democracy that values the peaceful transition of power. We are a democracy that values the right of people to go and vote safely and in peace.

    And so, what the president has done as our commander-in-chief is he's remind - he has reminded us that democracies are fragile. You know this. You've been across the globe. And if we are not intentional about preserving who we are as a country, if we are not intentional about reminding ourselves that there is a rule of law in this country, then we will be in danger.

    So, the president spoke optimistically about who we are as Americans. We are the greatest nation in the world. But also a reminder that we have to be intentional about being the greatest nation in the world and that we have to call out hatred. We have to call out this balance and that if we don't, our democracy is in danger.

Considering what is being reported as the most divisive presidential speech - September 1, 2022 - in modern American history, where over 74,000,000 people, many of whom are OUR greatest patriots, were named as fascists by inference or otherwise: Is Joe Biden clearly capable of governing all of the American People to the betterment of this Representative Republic?

  Yes, it is important that Haters are named.

  No, Joe Biden cannot accept criticism when the real truth is his cruelest taskmaster.

  I have no idea what is going on because I only consume Democratic Socialist Media.

Was it a judicious ploy for Joe Biden's FBI to execute the unprecedented raid of President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate?

  Yes; the Cheneys despise this former Republican president, and for good reason ... so they say.

  No; never has a former president been treated with this level of vindictive abuse by those temporarily in power.

  Who cares? It's Trump.

Inarguably, the policies of the Democrats in congress and Joe Biden as the Executive is plunging the United States into a recession, if we are not already there; a recession that was completely avoidable. Will abrupt changes in policies occur in time?

  Yes, the Democrats have a bold plan, yet to be revealed, to save us.

  No, there will have to be a complete undoing of the damage done by these Democrats.

  I can't do simple math, so how am I to understand the concept of basic economics.

Considering that Joe Biden is considered by so many to be the Imposter President: Is he actually knowledgeable enough, wise enough, patriotic enough to be this Constitutional Republic's president at this difficult point in these tumultuous times?

  Yes, Mr. Biden is thoughtful and kind, and just so different from the "Orange Man".

  No, this representation of "president" is either too corrupt, too stupid, or both to be a real president.

  I just want the fun guy, who knew how to make stuff work back.
