Biden Is Doing Fine.

Joe Is Not To Blame For High Inflation

Inflation and gas prices are up all over the planet, not just in the United States. The Trump Administration passed a huge corona virus bailout bill before the Biden Administration passed one as well, so if you blame government spending for inflation solely, both administrations share the blame, and certainly a gas pipeline that never was pumping gas is not to blame for anything. The reason everyone on the planet is experiencing paying higher prices for everything including gas, is because the entire planet temporarily shut down due to a MASSIVE WORLDWIDE PANDEMIC. You can't shut down a world economy and not expect to experience massive problems coming back online. Had Donald Trump been re-elected, he would be experiencing the exact same headaches that President Biden is currently experiencing. The Infrastructure Bill was a priority for the Trump Administration as well, and was long overdue and necessary, and has added to the woes of inflation.

The notion that Putin would not have invaded Ukraine had Trump been re-elected is ludicrous. Putin’s plan was ALWAYS to eventually invade Ukraine and take it over. Putin perhaps put it off for Trump’s first term hoping that he wouldn’t hurt Trump’s re-election chances. There is no way Trump would have rallied the West the way that President Biden has. Biden gave the world real time intelligence and warned us all what Putin was going to do. He was mocked by many on the right for doing so, and now the same hypocrites say he isn’t do enough to help Ukraine. Trump was the president who took Putin at his word that he wasn’t interfering in our elections even though our intelligence communities tell us they have been and continue to do so.

There is no doubt that Americans and everyone on the planet are being hurt economically by having to pay more for almost everything, and politics is politics, and Biden’s popularity is incredibly low right now. The problem is that things aren’t normal politically in this country. Democrats don’t just face a massive defeat at the polls next November, they will face a GOP in charge of Congress that are bent on fixing future elections, putting people in charge of local elections that will overturn votes to make sure Trump wins. They are bent on completely destroying our democracy. They will most likely try to impeach Biden for nothing, and over reach themselves, they just can’t help it. I am convinced that Biden is the right man for these times, and will stand the test of time. Democrats might lose big next November, but the 2024 election is far away, and even though Biden’s approval rating is at lowly 33 percent today, he will prevail.

Let’s look at Biden’s accomplishments so far as President. His first year was the greatest year of job creation in American history, more than 6 million jobs were created. Unemployment has dropped from 6.2 to 3.4 percent. Unemployment claims are the lowest level since 1969. Child poverty is at its lowest level ever. Five million Americans have new health insurance for the first time in the past year. More judges have been confirmed to lower federal courts since JFK. This list of accomplishments goes on and on. The mainstream media is fixated on inflation and the war, and rightly so, but the alternative to Biden would have been much worse. Let the record show that under the leadership of this president, 95 percent of all the jobs lost during the pandemic have been regained. That is no small feat. Now that is has become clear that the Supreme Court is going to overturn Roe, Joe Biden and his party might get a fresh look from voters as we had into the midterms.
