America’s Biden 'Buyer Remorse'
Townhall.com ^ | February 1, 2021 | Tom Tradeup

With little more than a week and a half of the Biden Administration under our belts, America has already contracted a raging case of "buyer’s remorse" when it comes to our 46th president.

It began when Joe Biden—who mercilessly taunted President Donald J. Trump for “not having a plan” to stop the China Virus as he campaigned against Trump from his basement—addressed that issue two days after being inaugurated. “There’s nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic over the next several months,” he told a stunned nation. His beleaguered and comically underprepared press secretary, Jen We’ve-Only-Been-Here-Fill-In-The-Blank-Days Psaki, was left to sputter for the 77th time that she would “circle back” on what Biden was talking about. (As a kid, I had one of those Hasbro SpiroGraph toys that—in its years of nonstop playtime—didn’t “circle back” as much as Jen has.)

Then there were all those executive orders signed by LunchPail Joe (the “worker’s friend”) responsible for closing the Keystone XL pipeline, halting oil and gas leases on federal lands, and getting the ball rolling on ultimately eliminating the fracking industry. This will blow a big hole through America’s energy independence under President Trump and send oil prices for home heating through the roof, not to mention gasoline prices at the pump and all those vaporized energy sector jobs.

As for the pointless and now-doomed “trial” of his predecessor by Democrats in Congress, Biden has done a masterful impression of Sgt. Schultz on the old Hogan’s Heroes television series. “I know nothing!” is his watchword, declaring all that messy business is the doing of Chuck Schumer and other members of Schumer's lynch mob—er, I mean, Senate colleagues. Obviously, John F. Kennedy did not have Joe Biden in mind when he wrote his Pulitzer Prize-winning Profiles in Courage.

But nothing is more serious and deeply disturbing than how Biden’s mantra of “unity” has produced just the opposite. That is unless your idea of unity is conformity to looney Democratic Party agenda items, including renaming schools, surrendering an entire generation of children on the altar of the AWOL teachers' unions, and the unfettered muzzling of free speech by Big Tech.

Jim Daly, president of Colorado-based Christian organization Focus on the Family, reports the group’s Daily Citizen account has been locked out of Twitter for allegedly violating Twitter’s rules against "hateful" content. Daly states: "It’s simply not true. We did no such thing." So what was the alleged offense?

At issue was a tweet pointing to an article about Dr. Rachel Levine, President Biden’s controversial nominee for assistant secretary for health at the Department of Health and Human Services. The tweet also contained the following sentence: “Dr. Levine is a transgender woman, that is, a man who believes he is a woman.

Poof! The Daily Citizen is now locked out of Twitter. As Jim Daly notes, according to Twitter simply acknowledging a biological fact is now “hateful.” This continues the blitzkrieg by titans of Big Tech to silence individuals and organizations that don’t knuckle under to their political and social point of view. Social networks like Facebook and Twitter now like to sneakily hide behind “our employees being upset by this content” as they stamp out viewpoints of conservatives and especially Christians.

Yes. As the unfettered forces of repression have been unleashed by the new administration and their lackeys on Capitol Hill, they’re slowly transforming America—founded on the cornerstone of Judeo-Christian values—into the Biden Roach Motel. Like the old Raid product, liberals hope Christians will check in.. but they won’t check out. Liberal media outlets are working overtime to muzzle-and-marginalize people of faith in America.

The new dog whistle is “Conservative Nationalism.” Especially in the wake of the January 6th riot at the U.S. Capitol, every anti-Christian crackpot has found new audiences on CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times and other outlets.

Thomas Edsall penned a column in the Times titled “The Capitol Insurrection Was as Christian National as It Gets.” Another article in the Times carried the incendiary headline, “How White Evangelical Christians Fused with Trump Extremism.” Yale University sociology professor Philip Gorski was recently quoted as suggesting the Christian National boogeyman was front and center in the January 6th riots: “Many observers commented on the jarring mixture of Christian, nationalist and racist symbolism amongst the insurrectionists: there were Christian crosses and Jesus Saves banners, Trump flags and American flags, fascist insignia and a ‘Camp Auschwitz’ hoodie." Professor Gorski added the riot “was really a fruit cocktail: White Christian Nationalism.

Which circles us back, again, to “Mr. Unity” himself, President Biden. If he truly is the man of faith he’s always professed to be, it is time for Biden to put on his Big Boy Mask and demand that the forces of his political allies abandon the dangerous Christian-bashing they’ve unleashed. For years Biden and his fellow Democrats have draped every racist nut or fringe group in America around the neck of Donald Trump. Should we crank-up the same smear machine, tying Biden to every anti-Christian nutter who crawls out from under a rock?

Rather than waste any more legislative time and, oh yeah, taxpayer dollars on a stupid trial to “remove” a president who has already left office, it’s Biden‘s responsibility to pump the brakes on “Cancel Culture” whose mantra is: You will comply—or you will be silenced.

By any definition, that isn’t unity. It’s totalitarianism.

These stories are so much B.S. No one on the left can even feel remorse. Bad orange man is gone, that’s all that matters. To hell with the country.

Don’t worry about those jobs. There will be a constant need for new land mine removers. The plan will be to march them through these land mine fields.

For those in the oil industry who voted for Biden.

If you lose your job, I hope you freeze in the dark and starve to death. Enjoy the suck!

I do not see remorse as much as I do helplessness. I think people KNOW or at least strongly suspect, that the election was stolen. I think they realize that there is nothing that can be done about it at this moment other than watch, pray and prepare as best you can.

It is obvious that the Obamanation of Desolation did a good job of putting toadies in charge of the military so they won’t act. The ranks probably support Trump overwhelmingly, the officers, I don’t know about. This is why I think that Trump did not invoke the Insurrection act, he know the military brass would not obey.

I actually have not completely given up hope that a coup like the one Robert Heinlein described in Starship Troopers, will occur; though I think it is very unlikely. If the military does decides to move on the government, the congressional leadership might find out that fence makes them easier to catch. But, have no illusion, if that happens, it will not restore the United States, the constitution and laws will be replaced. We’ll be in a new nation. I don’t know if that situation is better than now or not. This is not, to be honest, an option I want. I think 100,000s of thousands of people would die in the ensuing riots that the left would start. But, eventually, this may be the only option left.

I think people are quietly preparing to live in a nuclear dictatorship, keeping their head down, trying to not draw attention to themselves, and making basic plans to survive, immigrate, or hide as best they can. The issue is organization. The mass media have made it very difficult to organize. As we found out with the Proud Boys, the FBI has probably infiltrated the groups that were attempting to do so. It only takes one informant to bring down a plan. Pantiesinawadfa/BLM/DNC/G(r)op-e and other evil groups can organize and plan, we are constrained from doing so.

I really hope that people like Jovan Pulitzer and a couple of others can actually audit the the machines and ballots and prove the fraud. But, at this point, even if they proved Bidet was installed by fraud, I don’t think the Pig-Louse or Chuck Quisling-Schumer would replace Bidet/Hairass with Trump/Pence (Would Pence still be Trump’s VP?). I think we’re probably stuck for at least the next two years, and possibly for the next 70 years.

Our best hope, at this point, is that legislators in states like Georgia and Pennsylvania find as way to stop the steal in 2022. If they can implement election integrity in those states (Despite HR-1) we have a chance.

Our second best hope, and this is scary, is that groups like sub-Reddit/WSB do actually manage to crash Wall Street and kill the leftist money tree. My concern there is that I am afraid that would drive many people more securely into the arms of the government, though I think we’re probably going there anyway if this keeps up.

Our last hope, and probably futile, is that Bidet/Hairass screw things up so badly that their puppet masters abandon them.

Just my thoughts.

America’s Biden ‘Buyer Remorse’

__________________________________________________

If Biden survives the first 4 years of his term and gets re-elected, then this Tom Tradup guy who wrote this article hsould be burned at the stake. I know of lots of people who voted for Biden (or more realistically against Trump). They sure as heck don’t talk like they have buyer’s remorse.

There’s no ‘buyers remorse’ - there’s just the need to explain why he isn’t more popular...because it was fraud to begin with.

I don’t use profanity. Otherwise I could accurately tell these people what I think of them and their faux remorse.

This administration’s incompetence will become more and more obvious. Case in point the appointment of people based on gender-identity, race, etc., instead of ability or knowledge. Rachel Levine is a prime example.

Pennsylvania ranks next to last in vaccine distribution. We’re still in phase 1A in my county meaning healthcare workers and those over 75 years old. Levine before (she, he) was promoted to Washington, D.C. status was supposedly in charge of setting this up. Ditto for the idiot governor who destroyed the election system we’ve had for years in Pennsylvania.

Their kind of incompetence and malfeasance is now being installed in the federal government at all levels. We’ll be seeing the kind of government mismanagement of everything that’s prevalent in communist countries and that results in people lining up to buy bread or butter or shoes and finding there’s nothing left once they finally get to the front of the line. People in this country aren’t going to put up with that for very long.

I’m wondering if our dear governor and his minions are withholding vaccine from counties that voted for Trump (mine did) and giving it to counties around Philadelphia and Pittsburgh that voted for Biden. I imagine my county and other rural counties in Pa. will be dead last on the vaccination list.

No matter what lipstick is placed on the the pig of an excuse. The reason Bidin even remotely won is for one reason and one reason only...

"I voted for Biden because I HATE Trump!"

Now, everyone will reap the whirlwind because of HATE. Very Sad.

There is no buyer’s remorse for those that voted for this idiot. They’re loving what’s he’s been told to do since he’s incapable of any decision.

This is a BS story much like the COVID numbers that we hear daily.

It's like you bought something on Amazon, they sent you something else that you absolutely did not want but they won't let you return it and won't refund your money.

I recall saying once that every American election is a contest to see who can promise to violate the constitution in the most
appealing ways following which the winner swears to protect and defend said constitution.

So then if there’s nothing that can be done to stop the ‘’trajectory’’ of the virus why the hell are we wearing masks anymore?.
