Today presents a quandary for this writer, who like 333,892,437 other citizens faces the consequences of being sold an incredibly false bill of goods with no immediate remedy at hand nor likely until election day Nov 5, 2024. The dilemma is having a consummate fabricator occupying the nation’s Oval Office.

The verbiage seen below was copied this morning, word for word, as posted @https://joebiden.com/covid19/, when the president was campaigning for office:

“Whatever the state of the COVID pandemic on the day Joe Biden and Kamala Harris take office, their administration will:

“Listen to science

“Ensure public health decisions are informed by public health professionals

“Restore trust, transparency, common purpose, and accountability to our government

 “JOE AND KAMALA'S PLAN TO BEAT COVID-19” 

“In the midst of a growing public health crisis, the country is looking for leadership, effectiveness, and trusted experience — and that’s Vice President Joe Biden. Joe Biden has been laser-focused on the threat that COVID-19 has posed to our nation and the decisive public health and economic steps necessary to get the virus under control, deliver immediate relief to working families, and reopen our schools and businesses safely.”

And now today, Jessica Chasmar writes@foxnews.com: "The president took a dramatically different tone when he said Monday that "there is no federal solution" to the pandemic and that it was up to governors — a sentiment that was much maligned by Biden and the Democrats under the Trump administration.

“Biden acknowledged this week that his efforts had fallen short, and he has since promised to make 500 million coronavirus tests available free of charge, but the administration has not yet signed a contract to buy the tests and has not said when the tests will be delivered.

“Biden has also failed to follow through on his promise to hold China accountable for its handling of the virus that causes COVID-19. During his campaign, Biden said he would "not be taking China’s word for it" and would "insist" that the communist country cooperate with a U.S. investigation into its origins. Since taking office, Biden has had three speaking engagements with Chinese President Xi Jinping and has not raised the issue once.”

So, in that few minutes with the press on Monday, the president effectively threw up his hands, basically saying he’d lost the Covid battle and tossed the problem back to the nation’s governors.

While those governor’s may or not individually be capable of dealing with the virus issue, what are we as individual citizens supposed to do about it? Because thanks to a mass of other presidential incompetence regarding the economy, national borders, Iran’s resurrection as a world power, the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, inflation causing steeply rising prices with no end in sight, particularly costs of fuel resulting directly from shutting off the nation’s self-efficiency, we who live here are paying the price.

A quite appropriate summation appeared in Newsday back on 11/30/21, when Larry Alexander, Warren Distinguished Professor of Law and Co-Executive Director of the Institute for Law and Philosophy, University of San Diego concluded an article by writing” “Finally, it is worth commenting on Biden's character. Biden is prone not just to embellishing the truth, but to outright lying. His campaign lied about his son Hunter's laptop—saying that well-substantiated reports of its contents was Russian disinformation. He lied about Hunter's business dealings, including possible influence peddling, with the Chinese. He lied about what Donald Trump said regarding the Charlottesville protests. He lied about Kyle Rittenhouse, claiming the teenager was a white supremacist before his trial even began. Throughout his political career, he has plagiarized and told whoppers about things he is supposed to have done (but didn't do).

“Biden has attained virtually no successes as president. But as the above list attests, he has produced a lifetime's worth of major failures in less than a year.”

The bright side to the above truths is that they add significantly to the almost certain return to office of Donald Trump, who’s already proven without doubt of his capability to resurrect Democrat managerial catastrophes. That’s bolstered by a long list of fully capable, proven others any one of whom can competently take his place should Trump decline the challenge. However, that does nothing at present toward solving this writer’s original problem today.

Despite the unequivocal incapability of a lying incompetent at the nation’s helm, what are we supposed to do to help ourselves until next election day? Any and all suggestions welcome.

That’s it for today folks.

Adios
