Is Biden the worse President the nation has ever had? I'm not sure, but he certainly is in the running. He has created, by executive order, some the worst catastrophes ever visited on the American populace. One of his driving forces seem to be to cancel everything Trump did.
As soon as he was sworn in he cancelled the construction of the wall that Trump was having built along the Mexican border. He opened the borders to all comers and created a severe crises as illegals flooded the border to come into the United States. And they came, by the thousands. They are being carried at governments expense into various locations in the country and dumped on local governments to provide for them. A severe strain is dumped on local government to provide education, medical care and housing. An expense they can't afford. The odd thing is that the illegals seemed to be settled in red states.
As one might expect, along with refugees fleeing to the United States for a better life, the drug cartels were quick to take advantage and the flood of drugs began. Nothing, absolutely nothing has been done to reduce this problem.
He cancelled building of the pipeline leading from Canada and ceased all oil production by fracking and all oil exploration on federal lands, costing thousands of jobs. The United States became an oil importer again instead of oil exporter. The result, of course, was that Biden now had to ask for OPEC to increase oil production because the price of oil is rising and is reflected at the pump with significant gas prices at the pump. In the meantime a war broke out in the Ukraine with Russia invading. Because Russia provides the oil and gas for much of Europe and other reasons, a shortage of oil resulted on the world market and the price of oil increased significantly. Prices at the pump of gasoline sky rocketed, passing over 6 dollars a gallon as of this writing and with no end in sight. Meanwhile Biden does nothing the increase the flow of oil in the USA, or in the future.
Biden has insisted that the big jump in oil prices are due to the Putin war. But, a quick review of the facts put some of that statement in doubt. Looking at the actual price of crude of the last year or so, it is easy to see that the price of crude was already rising before that war ever started in February 2022. It had already reached about 90 dollars a barrel at that time.
Then he decided that we should get out of Afghanistan. That is well and good, but he did not put together a comprehensive plan for that withdrawal and result was one of the biggest cluster ####?s in memory. Hundreds of Americans and thousands of our Afghan interpreters, essentially leaving them at the mercy of the Taliban, were stranded in that country. To add to the mess, he didn't even warn our allies that we were pulling out. On top of that, soldiers were killed due to his poor planning.
Now we have those huge spending packages that he and left wing of democratic party is trying to ram though congress that will add over five trillion dollars to the national debt. That is on top of the huge amount of money the government has already spend, that it doesn't have, during the earlier round of spending.
His policies have triggered a round of inflation like we haven't seen in many decades. And, he tries to blame it totally on Putin and the Ukraine war. The fact is that the inflationary spiral had already started before Russia invaded Ukraine. Russia did not invade until February of 2022. When Biden took office the inflation rate was at 1.7 percent.
The New York times finally broke down and admitted that the letters on the laptops that were reported over a year ago by the New York Post were authentic. This clearly implicates Biden in corruption while he was Vice President. Of course, about the only place you will hear about this is on Fox. Most of the main stream media doesn't want to touch it. If the media, except Fox, had covered this story before the election, it might have well resulted in a different outcome.
He is all in now for helping Ukraine in their defense against the invading Russian. Well, sort of all in. As of now he will not approve of sending jet fighters from Poland into Ukraine for fear the the Russians won't like it. Obama/Biden team while he was VP, give not one piece of lethal military equipment to Ukraine. That was done even in the face of the Russian invasion and annexation of the Crimea in 2014. On the other hand Trump provided the Ukraine armed forces with over two billion dollars of lethal military equipment from May 2017 until June 2020. At the time the Dems were accusing Trump as being in bed with the Russians.
Biden jumped on the band wagon in March 2021 and started supplying Ukraine with lethal military equipment. That coincided with the Russian build up on the Ukraine border. In total, 685 million dollars in lethal military equipment has been allocated to Ukraine under his watch.
The training the British provided the Ukraine armed forces in 2015, coupled with the military equipment supplied by the United States, allowed the Ukraine armed forces to impede the invasion in it's first hours and days. Otherwise the war would have been a walkover.
I'm not sure this President has done anything right. Even the virus issue, witch he likes to take credit for, was really started by Trump under operation Warp Speed. That decree not only produced the vaccine in record time but set up the mechanism for the distribution of it. It took no real thinking on Biden's part just to continue what Trump started and take credit for the whole thing.
Dems are mostly supported by younger people yet they elect very old leaders. Let's find experienced leaders in their 50s and not 70s. Where is the dynamic, high energy and great communicator in the democrat party? I guess it is mostly due to the fact most of them never actually ever had to work in a business that needs to make a profit. They have no clue how the real world works.
