It won’t surprise you that Joe Biden is leaving office with ‘the worst’ presidential ratings in gallop’s history of polling.... which goes back at least 70 years.
Gallop found 54 percent of Americans consider Joe Biden a poor or below average president.
By only question is- why isn’t that number even higher?
My friends-
With all the -intentional- damage that Joe Biden and his team did to the country....and with all the – unintentional -damage that they did to our foreign policy and the larger global community... I genuinely cannot imagine who is giving Joe Biden ‘good grades’.
I couldn’t begin to tell you ‘Who’ is rating this a good or great presidency.
It’s not even the socialist progressives...or the eco-zealots...or any group you’d normally point to. They’re all disappointed in him, too.
But it’s against this backdrop that we are told President Biden will give two or three ‘major’ speeches this week....as he makes one last attempt to ‘rewrite’ and ‘influence’ his legacy while still in office.
At least one will be on the economy- on Wednesday-
And one will be today- on foreign policy.
Biden is scheduled to lie to the American people with a speech from the state department, today.
That isn’t just insulting to Donald trump: that’s an ‘insult to history’.
Joe Biden inherited a calm globe, ladies and gentlemen. He really did. Look it up.
Trump had the Iranian Mullah’s penned in and quieted with economic sanctions. The middle east was calmer than it had been in two decades. Trump was working a-detailed-plan for withdrawal from Afghanistan. All the pieces were in place-that Biden and Blinken, then, ignored.
There was no Ukraine war. No Gaza war. No Lebanon war.
What is Biden talking about? He’s leaving this in a better place.
Even the dumbest left-wing historian isn’t going to believe that crap-if its’ coming out of Biden’s mumbly mouth today.
Sincerely-
And since Biden and his team want to ‘get into this’...Joe Biden and his regime have been a unique ‘disaster’ on the world stage. In all sorts of ways and in all sorts of countries.
One analysis at the Washington times puts Biden’s body count at over a million lives lost here and abroad.
Again- Biden’s not responsible for Putin’s evil-but he’s responsible for not stopping the Ukrainian war-and even encouraging it with his rhetoric.
He’s not directly responsible for the evil butchery on October seventh in Israel two years ago. But he’s responsible for ‘re-arming’ and ‘rebooting’ the Iranian mullahs and their terror proxies-in a very real way-
And he’s managed to botch up ‘every part’ of what followed.
Folks, if Biden and the dems really want to get into this- I’ll pull from this article- and let’s start with turning Afghanistan over to the Taliban in a harried withdrawal:
And yet, today, Joe Biden’s team is going to prop him up on front of a teleprompter, and he is going to mumble his way thru a series of lies that even the leftist historians like Doris-Kerns-Goodwin and Michael Bechloss won’t believe.
Even, they aren’t this stupid.
I mean-did most Americans ‘even see’ the moment early last week in which Tony Blinken admitted to how thoroughly he and Biden bleeped up the hostage negotiations with Hamas?
President Biden’s legacy- is one of self-made disasters and bad decisions-
As were Jimmy Carters-but unlike carter- we can’t even say that Biden’s moves were ‘well intended’ or that he was a good and decent person who was simply in over his head.
Carter was.
Biden’s not. He’s an arrogant old a-hole who still won’t admit that every part of his presidency was a train-wreck....and he only got that presidency after 40 years and three attempts at it- and even then- only won in a really screwed up and questionable covid election.
Every part of Biden’s true legacy is a cruel farce on the American people and the American experience. It really is.
He’s ‘going out’ by pushing three or four big lies that he’s clearly-deeply-invested in. The first is that his term was a success and he’s leaving the country and the globe better off.
He’s not.
The second is: he could have served a second term effectively.
He couldn’t have.
The third is: he could have beaten Trump a second time if his party wouldn’t have shoved him off the ticket.
He wouldn’t have.
The fourth is: I inherited 9 percent inflation and a broken economy. He didn’t. He was handed a recovering economy with 1.4 percent inflation-and yet-in two interviews last week- Biden repeated his inflation lie...
And a fifth lie he’s sticking to is: I really intended to -not- pardon Hunter, and only decided at the last minute he was being treated unfairly.
Bull plop, on that claim, too.
And here’s the bitter irony, my friends: Joe Biden ran as a moderate ‘unifier’ in 2020- and if he’d gotten into office and acted like one- he probably would have had a successful presidency.
Instead, he listened to a bunch of Bernie Sanders style socialists and woke progressives who told him he could be the next FDR or LBJ if he just let them force leftism and socialism onto the country ‘in his name’.
He and Jill agreed. What. A terrible mistake.
