Victor Davis Hanson: The Biden Titanic
American Greatness ^ | 15 Jul, 2024 | Victor Davis Hanson

Posted on 07/15/2024 5:14:49 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Removing Biden is wise and needed for the country’s sake, but it will not solve the growing public anger at the left.

Joe Biden’s escalating dementia and the long media-political conspiracy to hide his senility from the public are the least of the Democrats’ current problems.

Biden’s track record as president may be more concerning than his cognitive decline. He has literally destroyed the U.S. border, deliberately allowing the entry of more than 10 million illegal aliens. His callous handlers’ agenda was to import abjectly poor constituencies in need of vast government services without regard for the current struggles of a battered American middle class and poor.

The widespread poverty of a vast new cohort of illegal immigrants could serve as indictments of a “racist,” “unequal,” and “unfair” America—as if the residents of East Palestine, Ohio or inner-city Chicago had anything to do with the centuries-long corruption and oppression of Mexico and Latin America that daily drives thousands of their own poorest citizens northwards to a society founded on very different ideas than those of their homelands.

Note that the left, neither in Mexico nor in America, never asks why millions of these impoverished people prefer to break into a supposedly racist America. Much less do they even distinguish those principles and values that once made America prosperous, free, and secure from their antitheses that have sadly made much of Latin America mostly poor, without freedom, and insecure.

Biden inherited near-zero real interest rates and inflation at 1.4 percent. Almost immediately, in nihilistic fashion, Biden did to a sound economy what he had done to a secure border. So, he recklessly printed money at a time of spiraling, quarantine-ending demand and supply chain disruption. Middle-class wages never caught up with Biden’s inflation, as prices for key staples are...

Why does VDH keep focusing on the POTATUS?!

The POTATUS is just a stooge, a human shield.

A front for Deep State.

Denial not just a river in Egypt...?

Joe Biden is a post turtle.

When driving down the road and you spot a turtle on the top surface of a fence post, three things are readily apparent.

He sits on top of the post, but he clearly did not get there by his own efforts. He has no idea of what to do while he is on the post, and has even less of an idea how to get down.

Biden’s political liability....... more concerning than his cognitive decline.......is that he has literally destroyed the U.S. border, deliberately allowing in more than 10 million greedy, gimme illegal aliens.

Biden’s callous handlers’ agenda was to import these constituencies and handover vast amts of costly government services without regard for the preyed-upon working class Americans and their families.


And this.

As part of a 10-month investigation Scripps News “uncovered” that every year, thousands of migrant children disappear from their homes shortly after arriving in the U.S. But there is no clear local, state or federal government agency taking responsibility for searching for many of these missing ...Apr 2, 2024

This is so bogus-——the kids arent missing, they are loaned out, passed around to other migrants. to be used in lucrative scams to get tax dollars from S/S and hefty disability checks.

Vengeful Biden callously overturned Trump’s order to get the DNA of these so-called “needy families,” to make sure the kids are really theirs.

A common practice by these greedy illegals is getting a crooked doctor to say a kid’s autistic b/c they get hefty SS tax paid benefits every month for the kid.

The maximum possible disability benefit for autism in 2024 is $943 per month for SSI and about $3,822 per month for SSDI. These maximums apply regardless of what condition you have or whether you apply with one condition or multiple. The actual amount received depends on specific circumstances. (Dec 7, 2023)

Disability Living Allowance (DLA) is a key benefit for children under 16 living with disability, including autism. It is assessed according to care needs, and a diagnosis is not required to make a claim. DLA helps cover the extra costs of raising a child with a disability. (Jan 30, 2024)

And it’s a sure bet they invent the necessary “circumstances.”

Biden has dementia, his party is infighting, there is zero enthusiasm and no positive message.

Callous handlers...

That’s Dr. Mrs. POTATUS.

She’s not in charge, either.

Come on, VDH. Stop being so lily-livered.

Deep State counts the votes.

As long as it gets away with that, Deep State don’t need no stinking message.

Biden and his goons have no problem being generous with OUR money.

Why does VDH keep focusing on the POTATUS?! Because the rats are stuck trying to tell us again to vote for him despite FJB obviously being the worst president in our lifetimes?

That’s why they’ll do anything, no matter how vile, to stay in power.

I still think it’s 50-50 that we have an election.

The Democrats have all the charisma and loyalty of the Soviet Union shuffling between Brezhnev, Andropov, Chernenko, and Gorbachev.

Yes, his handlers could do something to provoke Russia.

There have numerous options. War, crash the economy, take down the grid, banking, activate the Sleeper Cells, cities on fire, etc., etc.
