Whether or not you support Biden, you need to understand how he has failed the American people. So we decided to list Biden’s biggest failures in order of importance.
10. Bipartisanship
What happened to reaching across the aisle?
When Democrats threatened to pass voting rights legislation and the infrastructure deal with a simple majority, Biden’s party was invoking the same nuclear option they accused the Republicans used during the Trump administration.
9. The Children
Since Joe Biden became president, schools have closed, white kids are being attacked by critical race theory and more and more kids are falling for the “gay agenda.” He doesn’t care about the rights of parents whose religious convictions tell them to discriminate. He rejects the advice of pediatric medical experts like Joe Rogan and Rand Paul. He has marginalized fake historians and patriots who love Confederate traitors in favor of schools teaching historical truths.
Everyone knows children can’t learn with their faces covered. And, do you want your children using the bathroom and running track with trans people?
8. Voting
Joe Biden stole the presidency.
In December 2021, more than a year after the 2020 election, 71 percent of Republicans believed Joe Biden was not legitimately elected president, according to University of Massachusetts polling data. The fact that more people voted for Biden than any president in history is fake. The Constitution means nothing. The Electoral College is fake.
Yet somehow, Joe Biden can rig an election and leave no evidence of widespread voter fraud and believe that Black people face voter suppression. Joe Biden cheated his way into the White House by allowing rigged machines, mail-in ballots and white voter suppression. Meanwhile, he rails against election integrity laws that make it harder for Black people to vote.
Where’s the equality?
7. Crime
Why has crime spiked under Biden?
Sociologists and criminologists would say that, since crime is a socio-economic phenomenon, it may have something to do with the COVID-induced economic problems. The conventional wisdom is that Biden’s anti-cop agenda has neutered police, making them reluctant to do their jobs and causing a rise in the crime rate.
Aside from police unions, local police chiefs, the economy, the rise in unemployment, the defunding of social programs, closed schools, state legislators, lack of gun control, drug policy, the American education system, disproportionately white police forces and the entire approach to policing, who else could we blame?
6. Ukraine
Biden is weak on Russia, which gave Vladimir Putin the confidence to invade Ukraine.
Sure this is Putin’s second invasion of Ukraine. Sure, Putin has been planning this since before Biden took office. Sure, that second Trump impeachment happened after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called Trump to say: “Russia is gonna invade us if we don’t get that military aid.” Sure, Putin was probably emboldened by the international community not doing anything when Russia interfered in a certain country’s 2016 election. Sure, the Ukraine-Russia conflict dates back to colonialism and Katherine the Great. Sure Putin is an authoritarian dictator who does what authoritarian dictators do.
But if Biden would’ve just done more things that no one has specifically enunciated, none of this would have happened.
5. The Economy
Here are three ways Biden ruined the economy:
- Gas prices: Biden could have easily not shut down the Pipeline which caused us to be dependent on foreign oil prices.
- Inflation: Inflation is a very complex issue that can’t be explained in a single paragraph. Like other presidents and world leaders throughout history, Biden hasn’t been able to unilaterally control the supply chain, pricing and blatant profiteering of major corporations and private businesses, not to mention we all ask the same question, is his hand in the same cookie jar?
- Unemployment: Remember when Biden tried to pass the Build Back Better deal that would have given money to small businesses struggling during COVID, expanded the Child Care Tax Credit, helped working mothers with child care and offered two free years of community college? Many of those businesses closed, many mothers can’t afford to work and pay for child care, and companies are scrambling to find skilled workers. If only someone would have thought of that.
