Why does Biden always get it wrong?

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 8/19/2021 12:12:14 AM

Joe Biden’s record on major foreign policy defies the law of averages. It seems almost impossible to have been wrong time after time on the big questions. Peter Wehner provides the following partial list of Biden’s misses: In 1975, Biden opposed giving aid to the South Vietnamese government during its war against the North, ensuring the victory of a brutal regime and causing a mass exodus of refugees. In 1991, Biden opposed the Gulf War, one of the most successful military campaigns in American history. Not only did he later regret

It's because Joe is 1) stupid and 2) almost everything that he "knows" isn't actually true.

Biden always gets it wrong because he is the dimmest bulb in the pack and always was. He was at the bottom of his class and guilty of plagerism from the start. He wasn't even smart enough to leave Trump policies in place and then take the credit for their inevitable success. Instead he is so stupid that he dismantled all that which was making America the envy of the world. Now even our allies like the Brits are calling this dimwit disgusting and a failure as a leader of both America and the free world.

It only appears wrong if you assume he wanted to do good for the US and the people. Like all Democrats Biden is achieving the goals those of those that have been supporting Democrats for decades, that is the enemies of the US like China and Russia. If you look at it from their view point Biden has been perfect, batting 1.000

Because he never had to. He bumbled along for 47 years without question. Now that he clearly has dementia, you want him to perform ? If reporters browbeat him enough, he will have an explosion and setback you can't believe. But, wasn't that the Dem plan all along ?

The White House’s readout of a call between Joe Biden and Emmanuel Macron on the crisis in Afghanistan leaves out an impassioned plea from the French president that the US and its allies have a “moral responsibility” to evacuate Afghan allies. The French government’s readout of the conversation was released on Friday, a day after the call took place, and indicates that Macron emphasised ensuring the safe evacuation of Afghan citizens who assisted American and European troops over the past 20 years at great risk to themselves and their families. According to the readout, Macron described the mission to evacuate allies as a “moral responsibility”

President Joe Biden’s job approval is underwater in most states, according to the CIVIQS rolling job approval average. Thirty-seven states show the president with a 50 percent or higher disapproval rate. This is compared to only 12 states that show the president with a higher approval rating. Meanwhile, only one state, Colorado, polled at an even tie with 46 percent. The seven-month rolling average of the president’s job approval is now at 50 percent disapproval compared to only 43 percent approval, with seven people expressing no opinion. Broken down by age groups; 18-34, 35-49, 50-64, and 65 plus, all have a negative opinion of Biden as well.

oe Biden gave a horrible briefing on Afghanistan today, where he lied so much that Fox’s Jennifer Griffin said it was hard to keep up with all the misrepresentations. But Joe Biden did actually take a few questions. Unfortunately, his responses were just as bad as his remarks. For example, he refused to commit to staying past August 31 to get Americans if they hadn’t gotten out everyone who needed it by that time. But there was one exchange that really had people asking questions. NPR reporter Scott Detrow asked Biden if he was really saying that there were no circumstances where Americans weren’t able to get to the Kabul airport

California’s giant ride-hailing and delivery companies suffered a major setback Friday as a state Superior Court judge invalidated a 2020 ballot proposition that allowed Uber, Lyft, DoorDash and other businesses to classify their workers as independent contractors. In a lawsuit brought by the Service Employees International Union, Alameda County Superior Court Judge Frank Roesch ruled that parts of Proposition 22 are unconstitutional because they infringe on the power of the Legislature to include app-based drivers under the state’s workers’ compensation law.

The Biden administration asked the Supreme Court on Friday to overturn a lower court's order that it revive the Trump-era policy requiring asylum-seekers at the southern border to stay in Mexico while their applications are processed. The Department of Justice filed an application for an immediate stay of a judge's order to reinstate the "Remain in Mexico" policy. The order is set to go into effect after midnight Saturday. "It requires the government to abruptly reinstate a broad and controversial immigration enforcement program that has been formally suspended for seven months and largely dormant for nearly nine months before that," the department said in its brief on Friday.

President Joe Biden detailed his strategy to get Americans, Afghan allies, and refugees out of Afghanistan on Friday but caveated with “knock on wood” — a superstitious idiom expressing uncertainty about one’s fortunes. “What we’ve done so far is been able to get a large number of Americans out, all our personnel at the embassy out, and so on,” Biden said. “And thank God, so far, knock on wood, we’re in a different position.” The president tried to reassure Americans in Afghanistan that they would get airlifted out of the country, boasting that only the United States could handle the logistics required to do so.

Joe Biden just gave more remarks on Afghanistan that were just delusional and devoid of reality. He is now claiming that they’ve secured the airport and that the U.S. military is “standing guard around the airport” and that there’s no problem for Americans or allies to get to the airport. We have no information that Americans are having difficulty getting to the airport, Biden said. Where there have been challenges for Americans, we resolved them, he claimed. Completely ignoring the question about the safety of the allies, where there have been innumerable reports about them not being able to get through to the airport.

The first post argues that Biden’s chat with George Stephanopoulos was filled with enough contradictions and awkward stammering that, paired with his low visibility lately, we might reasonably conclude that his health has become an issue.

During the presidential campaign, the Biden administration introduced a new word into the lexicon: a “lid.” His campaign has called a lid countless times without explanation, meaning it was cutting off all media appearances for that day. Joe Biden went on vacation to Camp David just before Afghanistan fell to the Taliban and gave no public remarks on the matter until more than 24 hours after the fall of Kabul. That was a speech Biden delivered from the White House Monday, after which he took no questions from the media. He went silent again, then delivered another speech on Wednesday, this time on COVID.

In the wake of the Afghanistan debacle, demands have arisen in Congress for President Biden to resign or to be removed via the 25th Amendment. Elements of the formerly pro-Biden media have joined in the condemnation. Many silent Democrat office holders likely want Biden out, as they fear the systemic incompetence of his administration will bring them down come 2022. But Joe can not resign or be fired.
