The Failing Biden Presidency - Part 8

This is the eighth in a series of posts that document the idiocy and total failure of the Biden Presidency so far. After being in the Oval Office for a few months, the world is in much worse shape both domestically and internationally due to the failed and idiotic leadership and actions of Joe Biden. His approval ratings are sinking faster than the increase in violence and price inflation that he has caused to happen. Today’s discussion does not provide any hope that things will improve under his leadership anytime soon.

To read previous posts and examples of Biden's failures and cognitive decline, just type in “The Failing Biden Presidency” in the search box above.

1) Biden had campaigned for President by promising that no American earning less than $400,000 a year would see their taxes go up if he was elected. Sounds great but almost immediately it turns out that this was an incorrect statement.

First of all, as we have previously discussed, it turns out that if a married couple were each earning over $200,000, their taxes would go up because Biden immediately hedged his statement from “no American” earning less $400,000 would see their taxes go up became “no American family” earning less than $400,000 would see their taxes go up. So, in our example with each spouse earning less than $400,000 but their total income being over $400,000 their taxes would go up:

But it gets worse, according to a recent analysis by the Tax Policy Center:
  • Their analysis found that 60% of taxpayers would pay more under Biden's tax proposals.
  • Three quarters of American households earning between $75,000 and $100,000 would see their Federal tax burden go up $440 a year.
  • 69% of those American earning between $100,000 and $200,000 would see their tax bill go up $830 a year.
  • Almost 84% of Americans earning between $200,000 and $500,000 would see a tax increase of $2,040 on average.
  • Keep in mind that Biden is proposing a whole slew of taxes including raising the corporate tax rate to 28% from 21%, nearly doubling the capital gains tax rate to 39.6% from 21%, restoring the top individual income tax rate to 39.6% from 37% and taxing capital gains at death.
  • Keep in mind that as Biden and the Federal tax more and more wealth from businesses, those businesses will see their profits go down unless they raise prices which will be paid by just about every other American, a hidden tax that politicians never seem to understand.
So, surprise, surprise. Biden lied and we are all going to pay for it. And with just about every other dollar the Washington political class takes from us, they will use it inefficiently, ineffectively, and inanely.

2) One of the most dangerous aspects of the Biden Presidency is his soft approach to the worst terrorist nation in the world, Iran. While Trump understood the Iranian leaders for what they were, ruthless, religious fanatics bent on terror, death, and destruction, Biden, like Obama, actually thinks these radicals can be negotiated with and their murderous tendencies curbed.

However, even if Biden thinks that is possible, it does not look like he has judged the Iranian leaders correctly. Keep in mind that despite the agreement the Iranians took part in during the Obama administration to curb their uranium enrichment activities, we now know that they have about ten times as much enriched uranium then they were supposed to have under the agreement.

Ebrahim Raisi is the new President elect of Iran and the former chief of the Iranian judiciary. He recently publicly said that he is not willing to negotiate on limiting Iran's nuclear weapons program. No surprise there, except maybe to people like Joe Biden. Furthermore, Raisi declared that: “The U.S. is obliged to lift all oppressive sanctions against Iran...No Iran-US meeting. Unnecessary.”

Does not sound like the Iranians are in any mood to deal with Biden, especially since they know he is incapable of doing anything constructive, given his declining cognitive state. And to add to the insanity, somehow White House Press Secretary, Jen Psaki, went into complete denial when she saw Raisi’s comment as positive: “This is a welcome and potentially constructive early step, even if the diplomatic road ahead may be long, as it was during the first negotiations around the [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action].”

You cannot make this stuff up. The leading terror nation in the world dictates conditions to you and refuses a meeting and the Biden administration actually thinks “this is a welcome and potentially constructive early step?!”

3) Having once been the long time legal co-guardian of an elderly uncle who eventually succumbed to dementia, I think I have a pretty good feel of how behaviors change as this terrible disease progresses. One of those behaviors is to try and remain in comfortable, familiar surroundings as the reality of the world gets cloudier and cloudier.

I am not a doctor, just a family member who lived through the horrors of a dementia riddled relative. And the relative, like Joe Biden, always wanted to go back to where he felt safe long ago. We have already discussed the reality that Joe Biden has returned to his Delaware estate many,many times in just the few months he has been President, much like my uncle wanted to do during his slippery slope.

And Biden recently returned to his home state again after his disaster of a performance on the world stage at the G 7 Conference, a performance, that included forgetfulness, stammering statements, missteps in front of the world press, and sniping and lashing out at least one reporter who asked a harmless but relevant question, characteristics that my uncle lived through.

Things have gotten so bad, and obvious, that members of Congress are actually formally asking that Biden take a cognitive test to prove he is capable of being President: “We write to you today to express concern with your current cognitive state,” the House Republicans wrote in a June 17 letter to Joe Biden. “Unfortunately, your mental decline and forgetfulness have become more apparent over the past eighteen months.”

Anyone who denies that Biden is sinking lower and lower from a cognitive awareness perspective is either not paying attention, is totally ignorant of what dementia and other related illnesses do to a person or are still so severely afflicted with Trump Derangement Syndrome that they are making themselves blind to the obvious: Biden needs to step down and his family and handlers are guilty of elder abuse to the nth degree and that is what is so disgusting.

From the nation’s perspective, Biden’s spending so much time at his home in Delaware comes at the same time that we have a humanitarian, drug cartel, criminal gang, and drug addiction disaster at the border, we have the Iranians causing trouble all over the Middle East, we have Russia and China taking advantage of Biden’s ineptness and confused state, we have soaring government debt, and a whole host of other problems while he continues to be a part time President in more ways than one.

But given that Biden served until Obama, a President who spent more time on the golf course (well over 300 rounds of golf during his term) than any other President in over fifty years, maybe it is not a surprise that Biden is taking the same, part time approach to leadership that Obama did.
