Remember when the now largely discredited Democratic Party told us that Joe Biden, above, was a steady hand in crisis and a bridge to the future?

  1. Crazy mismanagement of the COVID-19 response.
  2. Racial unrest in most urban cities.
  3. Botched Afghanistan withdrawal, costing 13 soldiers their lives.
  4. Run-a-way spending, fueling inflation. 
  5. Soaring gasoline prices.
  6. Skyrocketing food prices. 
  7. Authoritarian-style social media censorship.
  8. A Russian-Ukrainian war.
  9. Middle-East Chaos. 
  10.  Banana Republic “law-fare” waged on political enemies.
