Biden is a poor excuse for a President

 Washington Examiner Editorial:

Joe Biden has been president now for 100 full days. Under normal circumstances, a milestone such as this might occasion an issue by issue evaluation — a laundry list of things Biden has done wrong.

We could mention how, by his poor diplomacy, Biden created a new humanitarian crisis at the southern border. We could talk about his embrace of toxic, divisive culture wars and his intentional destruction of girls’ and women’s sports; his appointment of the unqualified abortion fanatic Xavier Becerra to head the federal Department of Health and Human Services; his continued attempts, purely ideological, to make nuns fund birth control and Catholic hospitals provide medically unnecessary transgender services.

We could also bring up Biden’s irresponsible scaremongering over COVID-19 vaccinations, which began during his campaign and continued with a needless freeze on Johnson & Johnson’s one-dose vaccine. His exhortations now to get a shot cannot make up for the vaccine skepticism he actively encouraged whenever he thought there was something to gain from it. Only one person has done more than Biden to discourage people from getting vaccinated, and that is Kamala Harris, his vice president, who said, "If Donald Trump tells us that we should take it, I’m not taking it.”

The least of Biden’s faults is that he now takes credit for what others made possible, both the economic recovery (well underway before he took office) and the administration of vaccine shots, which were already being given at 1 million per day as of his inauguration. And we haven't yet even mentioned here his monstrous and almost wholly unnecessary spending of trillions of dollars of borrowed money to fund pet Democratic projects and reward supporters.

But the case against Biden isn’t about one thing or another that he has done. It is about his broader attempt, after winning a no-mandate election with no coattails in Congress, to transform the nation radically while mollifying the public with lies and propaganda.
...

Biden cannot keep his story straight, changing it again and again. He cannot reconcile his claim to have defeated COVID successfully with his accompanying warnings that people will still have to wear masks, stand at a distance, and keep their businesses closed indefinitely. Biden has been wrong about the virus every time he has spoken about it, yet he wants credit for something he seems to know nothing about. When someone in his administration dares to tell the truth about the virus — his CDC director commented months ago that schools could safely reopen — his White House enforcers shut them down (under teachers union pressure).

Biden cannot reconcile his claim of a strong and recovering job market with his simultaneous assertion of a desperate need for a national economic overhaul. He aims to weaken the economy with gimmicky and politically correct impositions upon businesses, green new deals, and “buy American” rules, for example, that will destroy rather than create jobs.

Biden presents himself as the friend of job creators, providing them with the COVID-era help they need. But he leaves out that whatever he ostentatiously gives with one hand, he will seize with the other. If he really wanted to help businesses, he would not press to raise their taxes.
...

Bien is one of the worst kind of Democrats.  He is a big believer in government greed.  Give me all your money and I will give you some trinkets in return. He is ignorant of how businesses grow and he is stealing their growth potential with confiscatory taxation.  We know that Biden was a poor law student who was prone to cheating.  He also apparently did not learn much history or economics along the way.
