Dare to be mediocre has never been a winning argument.
The Biden administration, through state-sponsoring media outlets like the Washington Post, has instructed Americans to “consciously lower expectations.” For their own good.
As evidenced by the Washington Post itself, it would be well-nigh impossible for mainstream media outlets to lower their standards. It’s a good thing the Founders -- and vast majority of later American presidents -- didn’t believe we should just “lower our expectations” (and standards) like the Biden administration does.
Imagine Washington at Valley Forge saying, “Lower your expectations, boys.” Or Ben Franklin standing up during a long and difficult impasse at the Constitutional Convention in 1787 stating, “I think we all just need to lower our expectations of what is possible to achieve here.”
Here’s Lincoln at Gettysburg: “We must learn an important lesson from those who died here. That lesson is: it is imperative that we lower our expectations.”
FDR in 1933: “All we have to fear…is higher than warranted expectations!” Inspiring!

Similar to the Great Reset crowd talking points. It is probably all the same plan.
dopey jao = BBB = DADA (Dismantle And Destroy America)
They should make hats for these DADAists.
Another ‘new normal’ ……
The most recent democrat illicit resident foists stale crumbs.
Or eat your peas in cute speak
Fed speak with forked tongue. Big Dollar Chief lie about controlling inflation. Can’t control inflation and keep economy going well so Democrats can win mid-terms. Dollar turn into peso. No good to buy anything.
I don’t know how much lower my expectations can get.
Maybe Biden should change the name of his proposal to “Buld Back Lesser.”
Was he wearing a sweater while saying this?
I guess it’s ‘look to the inner cities’ for the way forward. While odungo and the rest buy giant mansions on the beach.
You can bet our ruling class won’t be lowering theirs...
How about this expectation? Instead of the Border Patrol protecting our borders, they are funded by the Federal Gov’t to aid the Mexican Cartel in smuggling illegals and drugs into the USA.
Days of Malaise 2.0
Yeah, he’s definitely channeling Carter. I expect a Malaise speech in the future.
Since when has the "Land of Opportunity " come to accept the fictional idea of "Lower Expectations" ??
Our Southern border is not being over-run by illegal people expecting "lower expectations."
This administration should lead by example
and "the BIG Guy" should give back 'his 10% '!!
What a Clown Car this entire administration has become !
Our enemies don't fear us,
and our allies don't trust us !
This administration is the joke of the world ...
‘You will own nothing and you will be happy’
More like, “Eat your synthetic peas from a Bill Gates factory, get used to owning nothing, and be happy as long as you’re still alive.”
More quality work from American Thinker.
‘Why breadlines are the new buffets’
