CNN Sees Biden’s Political Troubles as Nearly Unfixable
PJ Media ^ | 5/6/2022 | Matt Margolis

To hear Democrats today, outrage over the possible overturning of Roe v. Wade will cause a blue wave this November. It’s an amusing theory that doesn’t quite hold up under scrutiny. Even Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) pointed out earlier this week that abortion is by no means the number one issue in his state. “Inflation is the number one driving factor I believe in my state. Right now, it’s hurting everybody, not just at the pump, but at the grocery store, at the drug store, at the pharmaceutical. Everything they do,” he explained.

Joe Biden’s cheerleaders at CNN seem to agree. On Thursday, the left-wing network acknowledged that, according to their latest poll, Biden is near “the point of no return with Americans on the economy” and dangerously close to an “irreversible severing of public confidence in his capacity to deliver prosperity and financial security.”

And Biden is taking his entire party down with him.

CNN surprisingly acknowledged the Democrats’ “looming political disaster” in the upcoming midterms because “the White House initially underestimated and has failed to tame” inflation.

“The party seems stuck in a dangerous political position of insisting the economy is doing well while voters think it’s in the tank,” the analysis reads.

They can be fixed in three easy steps:

Step 1: Fire the VP
Step 2: Name Trump the new VP
Step 3 : Resign

I wish I could find the meme that sad

Remember in the Lion King
when Scar cheated to win the title of King,
And the Pride Land was over run with hyenas
And all the lions lost every thing
They owned and worked for?
No reason
Just asking

(Paraphrased because I can’t find the darn meme)

” Woodrow Wilson was bringing in the income tax and World War One involvement when there wasn’t much communication nationwide.”

That’s the pop history popular with Glenn Beck and a few others who don’t let historical fact get in the way of their pet hobbies, Wilson bashing being one of them.

The Income Tax required a Constitutional Amendment. The first President to endorse and promote an income tax amendment was Teddy Roosevelt.

Congress passed an income tax amendment in 1909 while William Howard Taft was President. It then was sent around the States for ratification.

The 16th Amendment was ratified on February 3, 1913. Woodrow Wilson didn’t even take office until March 4th, 1913.

The Revenue Act of 1913 was a mixture of tariffs and an income tax. The income tax portion was a 1% tax on incomes over $3,000, which in 1913 was only 3% of the population. It’s about $90,000 in current dollars.

True, and if she became POTUS now, there’s no way they could reverse the crashing economy or fix anything else by 2024.

My favorite scenario is kind of a long shot: Biden remains Resident and they actually run him against Trump to get re-elected - other words, a do-over of 2020.

DOKTOR [sarc] Jill Biden is taking the country down with her because she is actively helping to hide this old fart’s failed mental capacity and competency to govern, period.

The man can’t even speak from the Oval Office because he doesn’t have ready access and preparation there in the form of teleprompters. It’s a national disgrace and laughing point for the entire world. And, Democrats act like there is nothing wrong.

A jug of no name laundry bleach was about $1.70 two years ago. Today it is almost $6.00. Let's go Brandon.

“The party seems stuck in a dangerous political position of insisting the economy is doing well while voters think it’s in the tank,” the analysis reads.

It isn't just a matter of perception. The Dems have been wrong-footed by reality and won't adjust. And it really doesn't help when the media out themselves by continuing to bleat that open borders, high taxes, propaganda in schools, and high fuel and food prices are all good for society because they force the unwashed to make "better" choices and stay on a fictitious "right side of history."

It gets worse. We are informed that J6 was an insurrection on the order of revolutionary Paris and that the top threat in DC is violence on the part of the extreme right over, of all things, abortion. The fairy stories are approaching Disneyesque proportion and Disney is paddling in the gutter. That's Biden's and the Dems' America.

That’s about all CNN exists for - “helping” Dems, while always trying to tear down Conservatives.

The pinnacle of “journalism”, aren’t they?

I keep telling everybody the Corporate Media is blowing this WAY out of proportion. Firstly, it just returns the issue to the states where it will be decided democratically. Secondly, the only people who are super fired up about this are people who were going to show up and who were going to vote Left anyway. This is nowhere near the biggest issue for most people. That is obviously inflation/the economy. But even then, is this a bigger issue than soaring crime? The border? Potential war against a nuclear armed country?

I’m willing to bet this won’t even rank as a top 5 issue to voters come November.
