Kevin McCarthy mocked for 'Dear President' tweet slamming Joe Biden: 'Your misplaced spine spotted at Mar-a-Lago'

'Dear President Biden: Would be great if you would 'build back better' along our southern border,' McCarthy tweeted, mocking Biden's jobs and economic recovery plan for working families by coupling it with POTUS' immigration policy

House minority leader Kevin McCarthy was relentlessly mocked on Monday, March 8, after he tried to slam President Joe Biden through a tweet that began with the words "Dear President."

"Dear President Biden: Would be great if you would 'build back better' along our southern border," McCarthy tweeted, mocking Biden's jobs and economic recovery plan for working families by coupling it with POTUS' immigration policy. However, his tweet did not quite have the serious effect that McCarthy might have hoped for as people started mocking the phrasing of his post, and "Dear Kevin" started trending as more and more users mocked him using his own style of writing.

"Dear Kevin: @GOPLeader did you finish reading Green Eggs and Ham?" one of the users said, while another wrote, "Dear Kevin: Would be great if you would give a damn about the American people & support the bill." A third noted, "Dear Kevin- Walls don't protect us when the enemy is inside the Capitol. It would be great if we could remove the insurrectionists." One more added, "Dear Kevin McCarthy, your misplaced spine was spotted at the Mar-a-Lago Lost & Found."

The next commented, "Dear Kevin, You are a seditionist who left American democracy bleeding on the Capitol steps. You will forever be known as a traitor." Another said, "Dear Kevin McCarthy: Would be great if you would stop being such a sniveling lowlife racist. You're embarrassing the good decent people." One more wrote, "Dear Kevin Donald Trump has hired undocumented immigrants in 2 different centuries to avoid paying American workers a living wage; and your face is buried in his nether folds."

A commenter tweeted, "Dear Kevin: Would be great if you'd call out the white supremacy in the Republican Party, but you're a spineless pawn so I'm not holding my breath." One more said, "Dear Kevin: Would be great if you would 'build back better' along with your own Character." Another commented, "Dear Kevin you should know by now that any idiot can climb a wall. Here look......" One more said, "Dear Kevin.. it would be great if you paid attention to what your constituents want instead of reading Dr. Seuss and making issues where there are none. Thanks."

What is Build Back Better?

According to the policy's official website, "Joe Biden believes to his core that there’s no greater economic engine in the world than the hard work and ingenuity of the American people. Nobody has more respect for the working women and men who get up every day to build and sustain this country, or more confidence that they can meet the challenges we face. Make no mistake: America has been knocked down. The unemployment rate is higher than it was in the Great Recession. Millions have lost jobs, hours, pay, health care, or the small business they started, through no fault of their own."

It further added, "The pandemic has also laid bare some unacceptable truths. Even before COVID-19, the Trump Administration was pursuing economic policies that rewarded wealth overwork (sic) and corporations over working families. Too many families were struggling to make ends meet and too many parents were worried about the economic future for their children. And, Black and Latino Americans, Native Americans, immigrants, and women have never been welcomed as full participants in the economy. Biden believes this is no time to just build back to the way things were before, with the old economy’s structural weaknesses and inequalities still in place. This is the moment to imagine and build a new American economy for our families and the next generation."

McCarthy's had slammed Biden over the removal of Dr. Seuss

This is not the first time that McCarthy has slammed Biden over one of his policies. He was mocked by people across the Internet after he released a short clip of himself reading Dr. Seuss’ ‘Green Eggs and Ham’. The Republican captioned the video as, “I still like Dr Seuss, so I decided to read Green Eggs and Ham. RT if you still like him too!” He did this after Biden didn't mention Dr. Seuss on Read Across America Day amid accusations of “racial undertones” in the classic tales for children.

Following POTUS's decision, Dr. Seuss Enterprises, the company that owns the rights to publish Dr. Theodor Seuss Geisel’s works, recently announced that six books would no longer be published over racist imagery. The names of those six books are ‘If I Ran the Zoo’, ‘And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street’, ‘McElligot’s Pool’, ‘On Beyond Zebra!’, ‘Scrambled Eggs Super!’ and ‘The Cat’s Quizzer’.
