Joe Biden takes his failures on tour
Spectator World ^ | 28 Oct 2021 | Roger Kimball

The 46th president heads to the G20 and COP26 empty-handed

Biden’s lack of a vote is also going to be a problem after he leaves Rome and travels to Glasgow to talk about “climate change.” He was supposed to have lots of money for that, too. Glasgow is a good place to hold a conference on climate change, because the weather there is always changing, though of course partisans of the green agenda don’t mean “weather” when they utter the word “climate.” What exactly do they mean, comrade? Shhh! Don’t be a spoil sport. Anyway, there is not much evidence in Glasgow of the “global warming” that is supposed to consuming the world any minute, right after the population bomb, global cooling, or whatever ChickenLittle fabricated threat — is COVID caused by global warming? — is next up to break the world and require more obedience, more taxes, more mandates, and decidedly less common sense.

During the Revolutionary War, Adam Smith famously told a forlorn correspondent not to worry because, even though America was set to win that conflict against Britain, “there is a deal of ruin in a nation.” I once quoted that line to a savvy friend who said, “especially this nation.” That was during the Troubles Economic of 2007-2008. He was right and the United States soldiered on and, under Donald Trump, performed brilliantly. We had reasonable growth, very low unemployment, lower taxes, rising wages, less regulation, secure borders and the slogan “Make America Great Again” seemed to be a wish that was coming true.

Just watched Biden and Macron giving a speech (sound was off;) and Biden was fiddling with something (looked like a cell-phone)- paying no attention to Macron - what a disgrace.

No doubt our European allies will fawn all over Joe because his handlers will tell him the right things to say, and said allies will continue to walk all over us.

Sure he also checked his watch several times.

The man is no diplomat.

He is senile old fool who gets lost in the bushes and only thinks about his next serving of pudding...or ice cream.

There’s only one reason Biden is going and the others welcome him. He’s bringing the wallet.

Sounds about right. Bet that 2/3 of those 800 are Jill Biden support staff for her Italian shopping spree.

The world is marveling at how quickly we were conquered from within. They are indeed laughing at us.

800 staff members. That explains the 85-car motorcade for his entourage. Exactly the optics you want for a Climate Change conference.
