So many lies

OPINION:

The lack of truthfulness and competent leadership in the Biden administration is depressing. Ignoring the truth deniers in the administration and the sycophant liberal media, who can deny that the direction of our country is significantly different from the one promised by our president?

Say it ain’t so, Joe. You promised we wouldn’t leave Afghanistan until all Americans and our most trusted allies were safely evacuated. How’d that go? You want to take away our guns, but you have no qualms about leaving American weapons in Taliban hands. You tell us to mask up and get vaccinated, but you ignore the thousands of illegal immigrants who cross our southern border maskless and unvaccinated. You sign away our energy independence with your executive orders, but then remove Russian Nordstream 2 sanctions. You claim to want to help the American middle class and inner-city communities, but your policies have brought back long-dormant inflation, which disproportionately hurts our poorer citizens.

Say it ain’t so, Joe. But then, if you did, it would just be another one of your many lies. And you apparently found 81 million suckers who fell for them.
