A matsayina na ɗalibi a ajin Jon Meacham a Jami'ar Vanderbilt a cikin 2016, na shaida yadda sycophancy ke iya yaudarar masu hankali. Lakcocin da ya yi kan yakin neman zaben shugaban kasa na karni na 19 sun yi hazaka, amma ilimi da dakin koren MSNBC sun bar shi gaba daya daga yau. Shekaru takwas bayan haka, mashahurin masanin tarihin ya tabbatar da cewa ba komai bane illa mai magana da yawun masu gadin sarauniya.
Mun hadu a darasi ne a ranar 8 ga Nuwamba, 2016, kuma Mista Meacham ya gaya mana cewa washegari za mu iya sa ran zaɓen shugabar mata mai cike da tarihi. Tabbas, yayi kuskure, amma kamar yawancin ire-irensa, bai ba da lokaci don tunani ba.
Maimakon ya koma baya a matsayinsa na masanin tarihi, sai ya kara tsunduma cikin siyasar yau. A cikin haka, ya tabbatar da kansa a matsayin charlatan, a shirye kuma yana da sha'awar haifar da hauka da ke barazana ga Kundin Tsarin Mulkin da yake cewa yana so.
A cikin Satumba 2020, ya kare Makullin Covid a matsayin "matakan kiwon lafiyar jama'a na kimiyyar kimiyya." Kuma ya kai hari ga waɗanda suka nuna rashin amincewarsu da kutsensu cikin yancin jama'a yayin da suke shiga cikin "ɗaɗaɗɗen tashin hankali da aka tsara don ciyar da tunanin paranoia."
Ya ci gaba da kiran zaben 2020 "mahimmanci zabe kamar 1864," yana kwatanta Joe Biden da Abraham Lincoln a cikin wannan tsari. Bayan al'amuran, shi ne marubucin rubutun Biden. Shi an tsara Jawabin Shugaba Biden a Babban Taron Dimokuradiyya na 2020, jawabin nasararsa a watan Nuwamba 2020, da Jihohin Tarayyar Turai daban-daban.
Meacham ya sami damar isa ga Shugaban kasa, wanda babu shakka ya bayyana fahintar Biden. Amma maimakon ya ba da hakuri kan wannan ruguza da aka yi da shi da sauran abokan aikinsa da son rai, a yau ya kaddamar da shirin. Hagiography na Joe Biden a cikin New York Times.
"Kamfanin George Washington"
Meacham ya yi nuni da shawarar da Biden ya yanke na janyewa daga zaben a matsayin "daya daga cikin manyan ayyukan jagoranci a tarihinmu, sadaukarwar kai da ta sanya shi cikin kamfanin George Washington."
Mai yiwuwa, Meacham bai ambaci gazawar Biden ba a bainar jama'a kan sanarwar ba, haka kuma bai hada da gaskiyar cewa sanarwar Shugaban ta zo ne bayan makonni na kin amincewa. shi, ma'aikatansa, Da kuma danginsa. murabus din nasa ya bayyana ne bayan da aji mai bayarwa da DNC ya juya gare shi kuma lokacin da tsammanin sake zaben ya ɓace.
“Sadakar da kai” na Shugaba Washington na da ban mamaki domin babu shakka da ya yi nasara a karo na uku da ya nema. Mista Biden, akasin haka, ba shi da wata hanyar samun nasara yayin da kuri'unsa a kowace jiha suka fadi bayan mummunar muhawarar da ya yi. Har zuwa ƙarshe, shi bawa ne ga masu iko, mutum ne mai biyayya ga sarauniya, kuma ba zai iya yin rashin biyayya ga umarninta ba.
Yabon Meacham bai tsaya ga Cincinnatus na Amurka ba. Ya kira Biden a matsayin "mai kare kundin tsarin mulki kuma ma'aikacin girmamawa da alheri" wanda "ya ci karo da kalubale iri daya da Ibrahim Lincoln ya fuskanta."
Irin wannan kwatancen mara hankali yana buƙatar sake kimanta duk ayyukan Mista Meacham. Wannan "mai kare kundin tsarin mulki" ya yi amfani da abokan tarayya a Big Tech domin tauye ‘yancin fadin albarkacin baki na abokan hamayyarsa, yayi takama akan sabawa Kotun Koli ta bai wa mazabarsa cin hanci da yafewa dalibai lamuni. ya kaddamar da fitinar siyasa na babban abokin hamayyarsa, ya rage mana dabarun man fetur ajiyewa zuwa kasa mai tarihi, OSHA makami don inganta ayyukan rigakafin Covid, yaudarar jama'a game da yakin sanguinary a Ukraine, kuma ya ƙyale miliyoyin mutane na duniya na uku su shiga kasar ba bisa ka'ida ba kawai don jin dadi daruruwan biliyoyin daloli na fa'idodin masu biyan haraji.
Amma Mista Meacham, kamar da yawa a cikin ajinsa, na iya ba da hujjar duk wannan saboda Joe Biden ya doke Donald Trump, wanda ya tsane shi tun daga wannan aji na Vanderbilt shekaru takwas da suka gabata. Meacham ya rubuta cewa Biden "ya kawar da barazanar mai mulki a gida," ya kara da cewa "tarihi da kaddara sun kai shi ga kololuwa a cikin karshen lokacin rayuwarsa."
Daga nan Mista Meacham ya ba da kyakkyawar yabo na farko na Grey Lady na Gwamnatin Biden:
Hali, kamar yadda Girkawa suka fara koya mana, makoma ce, kuma halin Mista Biden duka madubi ne kuma mai yin al'ummarsa. Kamar Franklin Roosevelt da Ronald Reagan, yana da kyakkyawan fata, mai juriya da kirki, mai kula da girman Amurka, mai son babban wasan siyasa kuma, a zuciya, ƙauna marar fata game da ƙasar da ta ba shi da yawa.
Don kasar nan ta zo ga rugujewar da wannan Gwamnati ta haifar, wannan hagiography ba zai iya tsayawa ba. Idan Mista Meacham yana so ya tattauna hali da kuma "babban wasan siyasa," to, ya kamata a tuna da Mista Biden a matsayin wawa mai son iko wanda ya yi ƙoƙari ya karya hanyarsa zuwa Fadar White House a 1987, a matsayin bawan mulki tun zamaninsa a matsayin "Sanata daga MNBA"Lokacin da ya kaddamar da dokokin kamfanoni a madadin ma'aikacin dansa, kuma a matsayin mai kula da diflomasiyyar Amurka wanda ya gaza. zakara gaza tsoma bakin kasashen waje da ya wadata iyalinsa ta hanyar cin hanci da rashawa na duniya.
Idan hali shine kaddara, to, hubris yana bayyana baka na shekaru biyar na aikin Joe Biden. "Kamar yadda Helenawa suka fara koya mana," kamar yadda Meacham ya ce, Biden ya fadi kamar Icarus. Ya kasance kayan aiki ga masu iko tare da kyama ga duk wani cikas - walau doka ce ko kuma abokan adawar siyasa - wadanda suka hana hawansa hawan. Wannan girman kai ya makantar da shi ko da takurawarsa, ta kai ga faduwa daga mulki da zarar ya daina amfani da siyasa.
