President Biden is giving his first State of the Union address tonight with rebuttals from Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds and The Squad’s Rashida Talib (yes, a Republican is giving the rebuttal to Biden’s SOTU speech, and a Democrat is rebutting a Democrat President??)
Let’s look at a short list of Biden’s economic triumphs. I will ignore Biden’s catastrophic Afghanistan withdrawal and his weak response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
If you want higher oil and gasoline prices, Biden is a tremendous success.
If you like rampant government spending, then Biden is your man. Home price growth is up to 18.84%, making housing unaffordable for millions of American families.
Wages? They are up, but declining after 7.5% YoY inflation. And GDP is almost zero.
Biden can only point to rising average hourly wages, but not REAL average hourly wages.
Inflation? Highest in 40 years, due to excessive Federal spending, The Fed’s crazy printing and Biden’s energy mandates.
I am scratching my head to think of accomplishments for Biden to mention in the SOTU. But I am sure that he will say something positive. Otherwise, Biden’s SOTU speech should be the Billy Preston song “Nothing from Nothing.“

He might sing from Bobby McGee: ...Freedom’s just another word for nothin’ left to lose. Freedom ain’t worth anything but it’s free.
Oh, wait. He’ll score BIGLY on his greatest accomplishment. He saved us from Covid—just like FDR saved us from the great depression.
Oops, that was meant to be a joke. Pray Biden doesn’t fumble us into WWIII.
This is his 2nd STOU speech and he will probably bungle yus into WWIII, with China.
He’s going to push child tax credits as the answer to all our problems.
You can’t make this stuff up. His inner circle who write the words on his teleprompter are living in La-La Land.
How about “it’s a sh-those like everything else the Democrats touch...just look at what they’ve done to SanFrancisco and Seattle.
What a great run for energy. Some dividends are being raised too. It’s just like Obama all over again.
Biden didn’t do SOTU last year.
This is his first.
I wonder if he goes in to his repetitious whisper ‘yelling.’ COMEON MAN!
My 401k is down 12% because of Diaper Joe.
