If ever there was a man who felt he got a raw deal it’s Joe Biden, who complains that he was dealt a bad legacy. “When I took office eight months ago, we inherited an economy in crisis,” he Tweeted. His administration — nay the world — is facing crisis after crisis. Zachary Wolf of CNN writes: “Why does it feel like the world economy is out of whack?”
"The supply chain is persistently clogged. There’s a full-on energy crisis spreading around the world. Prices for everyday goods are rising. And there aren’t enough workers to go around. … Prices are rising.

FTA:
"But the notion that progressivism itself might be the cause of emergent disasters is rejected by the movement’s intellectuals. How could they be wrong? That ridiculous possibility discarded, the alternative explanation is that the setbacks are temporary, due to bad luck or the poisonous legacy of Donald Trump. The liberal solution is to explain harder."
Leftists are dangerously deranged, all of them. They do not grasp the fundamentals of human behavior, the basics of economics or many other crucial bits of knowledge. Leftists believe in the wrong headed non-sense put out be that idiot Marx, and they insist on destroying everything by following his idiocy. And they are surprised when it doesn't work.
The long quote is from Heinlein's character "Lazarus Long", and I first read it many decades ago. It is superb, well worth reading, remembering and passing on.
Reading Heinlein's many novels, short stories and novellas was a good education in itself. Some of his ideas later in life got a bit odd, but he always stayed solid on the basics of free enterprise and how free men (and women) were the engines of prosperity. If you have children, get them started on reading Heinlein. He even has a group of "juvenile novels" which have teen protagonists which younger folks can more easily relate to.

"the long quote".....in the article by Wretchard, not the one I italicized above. You have to read the article to get Heinlein's excellent point.

He sounds like my brother that had dementia. Because of his action it created problem after problem. Yet, my brother blamed everyone else. Everything happening now is because of Joe (and Obama, the puppet master). Joe made the horrible decision to handle Afghanistan the way he did. It was his decision to shutdown the pipeline, etc. It goes on and on.
Bottomline, he is very mentally ill.

Candidates always run for office AGAINST not just the opposing candidate but also the current office holder while blaming that administration for all their problems. O'Mama did it and Biden is just O'Mama in a white sheet.

The man has always been a crook and a scoundrel, and a fun read is just SOME of his lies through the years (some repeated even though repudiated, e.g. his lst wife killed by a drunk driver), and now he is a demented one. Would love to know who ACTUALLY sending him out on stage, having him retreat at once before he can put his foot in his mouth, and will be "mad at me" if he takes questions. Who would ever think THIS man would end up being President, certainly nothing more than an anti Trump vote. Or that the Press would be this corrupt in sheltering him. (But them, we have Kamilla as VP and she had to drop out of the Presidential race before the votes even started, she was so disliked. Love her Judy Garland hands when talking to "kids" about the wonders of space.)

Joe "Inherited" a handful of Aces, which he promptly discarded, drawing blind getting NOTHING... and is now facing three "Queens" and a couple of "Wild Jokers" Keeps raising while saying "Don't call my BLUFF!"...announcing that he IS Bluffing. Clearly this man has NEVER played with his OWN money on the Table. No matter...he has ALL of yours.

From an article on inauguration day:
• Gas is currently $1.95 per gallon.
• Interest rates are 2.25 percent for a 30-year mortgage.
• The stock market closed at 30829.40 though we have been fighting COVID for 11 months.
• Our GDP growth for the 3rd Qtr was 33.1 percent.
• We had the best economy ever until COVID and it is recovering well.
• We have not had any new wars or conflicts in the last 4 years.
• North Korea has been under control and has not been testing any missiles.
• ISIS has not been heard from for over 3 years.
• The housing market is the strongest it has been in years.
• Homes have appreciated at an unbelievable rate and sell well.
• And let’s not forget that peace deals in the Middle East were signed by 4 countries—unprecedented!
• Unemployment sits at 6.7% in spite of COVID.
Tell us again about how horrible everything was before you slithered into office, you twit.

CNN published a story about angry American workers last night and didn't mention vaccine mandates or Biden.

We are looking at how the deranged sick communist mind works. The sick of the sickest and the delusional. You see, "THEY ARE WHO THEY WANT YOU TO HATE". They are who took Cuba and Venezuela, two thriving countries with stable economies and great futures and turned them into 3rd world disasters. It is happening here as fast as it happened there. The same people, the same hollow promises, the same agenda. We either wake up now or join Cuba and Venezuela. Its that freakin simple.

Not sure but I think Biden was born under the Fecal Constellation.
