Biden admits he can't shut down the virus

Hot Air:

A few days ago the Washington Free Beacon honored his campaign pledge to “shut down the virus” as its Lie of the Year for 2021.

After this clip, they might make it the Lie of the Decade.

It takes a lot to turn a Democrat into a federalist but a raging pandemic that’s defied all attempts by a Democratic-controlled federal government to bring it to heel might do it.

Rewind to this past August, when Biden was calling for private employers to impose vaccine mandates and meeting resistance from Republican governors like Ron DeSantis. His message at the time to red states: Get out of the way.

...

A month later, irked by DeSantis and other GOP executives preventing local governments from imposing mask mandates, he doubled down. Get out of the way, he warned them, or I’ll use my executive power to push you out of the way.

...

Three months later, with daily case counts about to blast through the previous record, COVID is a problem only the states can solve.

...

Actually, DeSantis has done much better than New York which has implemented some of the most control freak policies in the country and now has the highest rate of new cases.  What we are seeing is that the pandemic is a problem that liberals cannot manage.
