Same leftist leanings, same Keynesian economic nonsense, same result, and now the same excuses, and the same denial of reality:
Yet Biden’s remedy is not that different from the diagnosis made by former President Jimmy Carter in 1979, when the U.S. economy was crippled by stagflation. Carter said then the U.S. was suffering from a “crisis of confidence” and “the erosion of our confidence in the future is threatening to destroy the social and the political fabric of America.”
The president said he wants to endow the U.S. with more verve, fortitude and courage.
“Be confident,” Biden said. “Because I am confident. We’re better positioned than any country in the world to own the second quarter of the 21st century.”
Well, even he doesn’t believe the garbage he’s spouting. That much is obvious. Then again, that is the first duty of the leftist, to deny reality. And it’s not like we haven’t seen it before.
The similarities between Joe Biden and Jimmy Carter are eerie. Both men had no faith in the genius of America — its capitalists, its workers, or its ability to compete. The people aren’t inspired by leaders who whine about how unfair the criticism is, or how circumstances beyond the president’s control are the real cause of our problems.
For Carter, it was the Arab oil embargo that was the proximate cause of our economic woes. He, too, blamed the American people for not being inspired by his very existence. In a way, Biden and Carter are pathetic historical figures, lashed by forces they don’t understand. And like Carter, Biden will exit history in disgrace, leaving behind a prostrate nation needing to be inspired.
Look, guys, the vice president’s job is to make the president look good. That was a task that Joe Biden was uniquely qualified for as the last 2 years have shown us. That’s why even the Democrats have been working hard to keep Kamala Harris out of the spotlight. Putting Harris on the ticket was a stroke of political genius on the part of Biden’s handlers. Bad as Biden is, nobody will ever want to replace him with Kamala Harris.
And yet with all of that, there is one thing that the American people as a whole are confident about. The situation we are now in is squarely on the shoulders of Joe Biden, and they want him gone, along with people like Charles Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.
Those of us who lived through the Carter years recognize the electoral tsunami that is coming. It’s going to be even larger than Reagan’s two sweeping victories.
Joe Biden knows it too. So do the rest of the Democrats which in turn is why they’re pushing this January 6th nonsense so hard. It’s the only thing they’ve got, the only lever available to them. The list of accomplishments of the Democrats since taking power have all been negative
So overwhelming is the evidence that the Democrats are about to get spanked bloody at the polls, even Biden has begun to raise questions about the validity of future elections:
REPORTER: Speaking of voting rights legislation, if this isn’t passed, do you still believe the upcoming election will be fairly conducted and its results will be legitimate?
PRESIDENT BIDEN: Well, all depends on whether or not we’re able to make the case to the American people that some of this is being set up to try to alter the outcome of the election.
REPORTER: You were asked whether or not you believed that we would have free and fair elections in 2022 if some of these state legislatures reformed their voting protocols. You said that it depends…Do you think that they would in any way be illegitimate?
BIDEN: Oh, yeah, I think it would be easy to be illegitimate.
Tucker Carlson noted this on his show recently and I think he’s got this one right;
So, 2020 was the most secure election in American history. They tell us that endlessly, and you’re a nut, probably a criminal, if you say otherwise and they say that because Biden won. He got – what do they say – 81 million votes. But things are different now because the Democratic Party understands it will be severely punished. It will be spanked at the polls five months from now. So, because they know what the outcome is going to be, Joe Biden is now telling us that that election could “easily be illegitimate.”
With any luck at all, it’s going to be decades before the Democrat party recovers any momentum to power. Perhaps by then we will have recovered from the damage they have caused. I wouldn’t guarantee a recovery but there’s always hope so long as the Democrats are gone.
