We hear from both the democrat mouth pieces on TV and radio ads that Biden takes responsibility for his own actions and never blames anybody else, unlike Trump. I will guarantee that if he is elected, all the problems he faces will be blamed on Trump. Every covid death under his watch (they’ll whine, he’s doing the best he can), a slow economic recovery, due to his flawed policies, riots in major cities, which he has failed to condemn, and everything else you may imagine. Just as in the Obama administration’s first term, they blamed George Bush for their slow recovery, the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and Obama’s campaign pledge to serge troops in Afghanistan. Joe Biden has no new ideas on covid. President Trump has had the experts at the White House from the beginning. Now, to be fair he hasn’t followed all their advice because some are unworkable in this country. Biden has said he wants a nationwide mask mandate. Let’s see, how would that work? Is that ever Constitutional? Would this apply to protests and riots? Would there be fines? Would there be arrests? Would we have mask police or social workers asking nicely, please put on your mask? How would this work when they start arresting black people for mask violations? Now, I work in a metropolitan city and this is just anecdotal, but I see as many blacks as whites out there without masks. Are we to believe that since Biden is in office and not Trump, all these people, white and black, will go along peacefully with this fiat? I think not. Dr. Fauci has said he would’ve preferred a lock-down, similar to, that of Italy. They were allowed out for one hour, once every two weeks to buy groceries. How do you think that would play in this country, no matter who is in office? This is little more than foolishness.
Joe has also said that will raise taxes and replace financial regulations that the president has removed to help the economy grow. Is this part of the “Build Back Better” campaign motto? Is it the investments Biden talks about in his Ads? Investments are no more than, massive government spending. That along with the green new deal, open borders, health care for all, including illegals, and free education is a recipe for a stagnant economy, worse than the eight years prior to the Trump Administration. Let me remind everybody that during those eight years, there were not two quarters in a row of two percent growth. At the end of those eight years there were still thirteen million more people on SNAP (supplemental nutritional assistance program) or food stamps, and eight million more people still in poverty than when they took office, so much for the vibrant economy the democrats say Trump was handed. As I said stagnant!
Biden has said he will “Unite Us”, “Bring us back Together”, even get the “Country back to Normal”, what nonsense. I see nothing, but daily assaults, no uplifting vision of the future. It’s notable that Biden and Harris have failed to condemn the rioting that has been propagated by Antifa and Black Lives Matter. How does this get us back to normal? Do, they believe, that if elected that these malcontents will suddenly stop and go home? Do they think that their only reason for rioting is Trump? That this genie can be put back in the bottle, because “they” are now, in office. These organization are intent on replacing our form of government with communism. How will they contend with these ongoing issues? By saying “pretty please” stop, or letting the violence continue unmitigated. They will have to alienate some in their party. What will that bring? More rioting? By embracing this kind of thuggish behavior they’re essentially condoning this conduct as an acceptable form of protest. This is what the future will bring if Biden and Harris are elected.
Biden was known as being bipartisan, but in this climate the democrats have no appetite for reaching across the aisle. This fact is evident in the current negotiations over “The hero’s Act” or whatever inane name they put on the economic stimulus bill being worked on now. Joe and the democrats want a trillion dollars of stimulus to bailout cities. These cities, run by democrats, are a morass of incoherent policies and inept management. Their school systems are fiascos, their mass transit systems are losing money at staggering rates, and their negotiations with their unions are nothing less than graft, or better said, theft writ large. Now we, in the form of the federal government, are expected to bail them out and that’s only part of they want. This is Joe Biden’s much heralded concept of “empathy”. Empathy in the form of printing money at a rate unseen before in history. This is not empathy it is an attempt to create a progressive (see socialist) paradise, which has never worked. This concept has been tried many times before and has failed each time. From the Plymouth Bay Co, to Venezuela. Venezuela was the richest country in Central and South America. With oil deposits that rival Saudi Arabia’s. It was one of the founding members of OPEC. Now, its people are starving, and their economy is in shambles. The left has said, “it hasn’t been done by them, they’ll do it better”, as if they’re smarter than all people that came before, the utter arrogance of that is mind boggling. It is my contention, that because the U.S. is the world’s reserve currency, that they believe they can print enough money to make it work for a time. Until the value of the dollar is just as worthless as the Venezuelan Bolivar is now. As with every policy or initiative that fails, the democrats answer is always, we just need more money. It’s never the concept or the political maneuvering it took to get it passed, it’s always the money. Please, “spare me”, this will be another debacle, in the making.
The media seems to trust in the idea that Twitter is America, this is a fallacy. Eighty percent of what’s on Twitter is produced by ten percent of the users. The self-contained bubble the media lives in begets the contempt and condescension they feel for the American people. People they see as ignorant and unworthy of the right to vote. They’ve begun to believe their own narratives. Narratives aren’t the truth they’re stories loosely based on a few facts, to push the “Great Unwashed” as they see it, in a particular direction. They don’t deal in “truth,” therefore they’ve produced a dystopian view of America, mimicked by the democrats in an effort, to harm Trump. The media has commented a number of times on how dark Trump’s speeches are. His speeches are nothing like human misery being portrayed by the left. Sure, we’re in a semi lock-down due to covid, but much of this has to do with blue state mayors and governors who are slow walking their economies, keeping schools closed, and allowing mayhem to run rampant in their streets. This, in an attempt, to impact Trump’s re-election chances, at the expense of their citizens. All hidden behind the thinly veiled defense of “science and data”. This tactic has been echoed in the media, by politicians, and by celebrities. “We can come back from a recession; we’ve done it before”. “We just need to get rid of Trump”. As incredible as this sordid maneuver may seem, it’s exactly what’s happening. At a time in the election when one would think they’d be trying to pump up “Old Joe” and engender some enthusiasm for his candidacy all you hear is the constant drum beat of, “We Hate Trump”. Voting against a candidate is never as effective voting for a candidate. Enthusiasm equals votes, once again they’ve got it wrong.
Biden has learned one thing from the 2016 election. Hillary’s patronizing and pretentious treatment of Senator Bernie Sanders cost her votes on the left. In an endeavor to bridge this gap the Biden camp and the Sanders camp have put together what Trump calls Bernie/Biden Manifesto. This is a one hundred some odd page progressive “wet dream”. A list of every far left agenda idea imaginable from immediately curtailing fracking, which will cost tens of thousands of jobs in Ohio and Pennsylvania, that should help get him elected, to up-fitting all commercial buildings and homes in the country to a net zero emission standard, this will cost trillions. Who will pay for it? The building owner, the homeowner, the government, which is you and me. This attempt to curry favor with the left has shattered Joe’s moderate credentials. In fact, he has said that if elected he would be the most progressive president in the history of the country. More progressive that even Franklin Roosevelt and he’s was proud of it! So much for Biden the moderate. The media’s assertion that both Biden and Harris are moderates is not to be taken seriously. This is at best misleading and at worst an outright prevarication. Do you find the picture I paint troubling?
