Where the hell is Joe Biden?
Washington Examiner via MSN News ^ | May 13, 2021 | Tiana Low

Posted on 05/13/2021 7:15:22 PM PDT by Rennes Templar

Joe Biden's presidency should have begun as a success story. Biden inherited a good economic situation, benefited from Operation Warp Speed's quick development of a vaccine, and got to see his predecessor make a disgrace of himself with his election-rigging conspiracy theories.

Yet instead of heading into the Roaring Twenties, liberating locked-up denizens to endless dinner parties and dances, we're seemingly regressing into 1978. With Jerome Powell promising to keep interest rates around that historically safe level of near-zero, Biden is pumping trillions of dollars into the economy to bail out blue states already benefiting from Donald Trump's own fast and loose hand, teachers' unions happy to hold tens of millions of children hostage, and (former) workers who realize Uncle Sam and Wall Street have greater profit margins than Main Street.

The result? Inflation skyrocketed by 4.2% last month. It turns out that you can't just scream "but we're the world's reserve currency!" while devaluing said currency and forcibly inhibiting economic growth with ludicrous lockdowns. We fell 75% short of the expected million jobs created, rendering this last one the worst jobs report in history.

All of this raises the question: where the hell is the man allegedly in charge here? And perhaps more importantly, where are the people apparently pulling the strings?

After Treasury Secretary (and Powell's much more astute predecessor) Janet Yellen warned that interest rates would have to rise to prevent the economy from overheating, she quickly walked back her remarks under pressure from her boss, the way all of Biden's more rational advisers are eventually forced to do.

The only time you see him is when he come out to a carefully choreographed and scripted press conference where he can read from a Teleprompter or script and then shuffle off back inside, without taking questions from the press.

The few times he does he Never really answered any of the questions just feebly mumble some words before saying he really shouldn’t take questions and shuffles off.

He's looking more and more like Puzzle the Donkey in The Last Battle (Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis).

Look, Joe Biden has dementia.

He’s an elderly man under tremendous elder abuse by his very best friends.

His wife, the good Doctor, is watching over the Biden vault.

Joe Biden, is a bed wetting ED having elderly chunk of WhatAboutBernie.

It’s the dead parrot scene from Monty Python.

Eee ain’t dead, Eee’s just nappin’.

For fks sakes people, our president is wrapped up in duct tape daily for presentation.

Also cannot believe on MSN.

Honeymoon over? Buyer’s remorse?

I must say, that I didn’t expect the wheels to fall off with such ferocity.

“I didn’t expect the wheels to fall off with such ferocity.”

Really? What the heck did you think was going to happen?

This election was definitely rigged. No way Trump wasn’t getting re-elected, just look at the down ballot results.

Biden was in hiding the entire campaign, he is is NO WAY the legitimate POTUS.

The dirty, dirty Democrats with the aid of the despicable Mainstream Media put a doddering fool at the helm of the free world.

What exactly did you think was going to happen?

Every single person in this country, patriots, communists, illegals, trannies, priests, grandmothers, toddlers, ALL OF US are in mortal danger every single day. And we’re going to remain there until this pretender is gone.

Good luck, the first four months of the next four years have been SWELL.

And here I was thinking the Washington Examiner was somewhat conservative.

I don't care where he is as I think he is dead. I want to know who is whispering in the ear of what ever is wearing the Buyden mask.

Well what I want to know is who in the hell would think for a moment that Biden was in charge. Allegedly or otherwise.

Obama is running the government. Susan Rice delivers the policy and sets it in motion. Joe is now a hood ornament.

A hood ornament on a car headed for a tree.

Obama will laugh when it hits the tree.

And the CCP is poised to pick up the pieces and hoist the red and gold.
