OPINION:
President Biden has lived his adult life as a career politician. His former boss, Barack Obama, once said, “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f—- things up.” He spent most of 2020 hiding in his basement while running as the Democratic nominee for president. His party selected him as an unwitting stooge to accomplish their radical bidding.
Powerful Democratic allies did everything in their power to get Mr. Biden elected. The media, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer intentionally covered up his deteriorating mental health. The corrupt press covered up a scandalous story about his son, Hunter Biden, just weeks before the election.
In 18 months, Mr. Biden has accomplished a lot. He has destroyed our economy and America’s energy independence. He is responsible for record-high gas prices and inflation. The stock market is in a free fall as everyone worries about an upcoming recession. Horrifying, violent crime is on the rise across America.
What else? Mr. Biden said the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan would be “secure and orderly.” After the debacle, he actually had the nerve to call it an “extraordinary success.” Mr. Biden opened our southern border, allowing millions of illegal aliens to enter our country. Now that border is no longer controlled by the federal government, but rather by Mexican drug cartels. Speaking of drugs, a record high 107,000 Americans died from drug overdoses last year.
A man crossed the country to kill a Supreme Court justice and Mr. Biden said nothing. Mr. Biden’s predecessor promised to “fundamentally” change America. Unfortunately Mr. Biden is doing just that.
