Biden's new Record of the year 1842
Posted on: 2022-07-05 12:14:11   By: Anonymous
 
County burning up and our country under Biden has TURNED INTO THE BIGGEST DUMPSTER FIRE SINCE AT LEAST 1842. That's right, the year 1842!!!
Here's just another reason even the democrats are turning on this embarrasent called our President.
"Meanwhile, stock markets have had their worst first six months since 1970, with the S&P 500 down by nearly 21%. Bond markets by early May had suffered the worst losses – since 1842! Bitcoin came unglued as well, dropping 60% in value since the end of March."
Bonds so LOW, LIKE JOE'S APPROVAL RATING....WORST LOSSES SINCE 1842???? THE BIGGEST IDIOT OF ALL TIME IN THE WH, DO YOU THINK HE'S EVEN AWARE OF WHAT DAY OF THE WEEK IT IS? OR THAT HE'S PRESIDENT? JUST CURIOUS, AFTER ALL DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT HE SAID ABOUT HIMSELF ATER HIS FIRST YEAR AS PRESIDENT?" Biden insisted he has ‘outperformed’ expectations" I believe Joe gave himself an A- Isn't it wonderful how he sees himself at doing such a great job?
And the reason why he knows the people are frustrated is "And we know why: Covid-19. Omicron has been challenging us in a way that, it’s the new enemy.’ NO JOE, YOU....ARE THE ENEMY. YOU HAVE DONE ALL THIS DAMAGE TO OUR COUNTRY AND YOU BLAME COVID, THAT'S WHY JOE DIDNT GIVE HIMSELF AN A+ IT WAS ONLY BECAUSE OF COVID

Do you remember when we were a Sovereign Nation, our Southern Border was under control, gas prices were ridiculously low compared to now, Mass Shootings we're 400 % less then today, violent crime, rapes, Shootings we're way below today's numbers, there was no inflation, our Allies respected us, our Adversaries feared us, no supply chain crisis, baby food was available, remember when Trump created Operation Warp Speed and the entire left said impossible it would take 5 years, remember when there were only 400,000 dead Americans and under Biden it's over ONE MILLION Americans DEAD because he and his VP bad mouthed the Three Vaccines Trump gave him? Remember when Roe Vs Wade was still in place under trump? Remember when New York prosecuted criminals with guns, then they stopped prosecuting and then the Supreme Court overturned New York's unconstitutional gun laws so law abiding citizens can apply for a gun permit to protect themselves for the skyrocketing violent crime under this Socialist Dictatorship.Remember when there was Peace in the Middle East, other countries entering into peace agreements with Israel, Russia stayed inside their own border, the military, law enforcement respected the POTUS, Remember when teachers taught 5 year old students reading writing and arithmetic instead of questioning their sex, remember when politicians worked for American citizens instead of making us last, But all of that was wayyyy back (like 17 months ago) before president dementia and vice president Whore took over. Do you remember wayyyy back in the beginning of January 2022 before Biden lost over EIGHT TRILLION DOLLARS IN OUR STOCK MARKET and millions of people had to put off their retirement and forcing millions of our Elders to try to go back to work part time so they could eat?
See what happens when you elect a weak, uncaring Dictator who doesn't give a damn about you, our Freedom, our Constitution, our Bill of Rights. Today might be the best day of your life because under this Disastrous Dictatorship tomorrow might bring even more Chaos.

    So you long for the days of a ruler(sovereign) that is a fascist dictator(Trump).
    Closed borders have never existed. Canada was good at preventing US to Canada travel, but always turned a blind eye to travelers across their border. The border crossings were closely monitored, but that was more for human trafficking and illegal contraband.
    Mexico has never put a stop to migrants crossing through their country. The drug cartels control most of the migrant crossing into the US.
    If you think the world ended because of Biden being elected, you've ignored the facts.
    What one should ask is, why are GOP legislators not doing more to help their constituents, and other citizens(not their constituents)?
    Simple.
    Votes.
    If the GOP does anything positive to help this country, it makes the Democrats look good.
    Whatever happened to bipartisan legislation that helps all Americans?
    Neither political party has all the right answers.
    Bipartisan legislation is the only way to fix what's broken, whether there's a Red Wave or a Blue Tsunami.
    May the Fourth be with you.
