Dr. Jill Biden reminded all of us just before the “election” of 2020 that “decency is on the ballot.”

She tweeted it then, but the tone reverberated throughout that election cycle. The message was “clear.” Supposedly, the race for POTUS that year was a head-to-head matchup between a mean, horrible “monster” (who had just overseen the most productive single-term administration in history) and good ole Scranton Joe.

While somehow speaking to empty parking lots and gymnasiums with fifteen large circles drawn on the floor (of which usually only 10-12 would have anyone in them,) Joe Biden campaigned by telling us over and over what a nice, decent, normal guy he was who would never embarrass us or give us reasons to dislike him.

Of course, he pulled off this “aw shucks” stuff while saying the most heinous things about his predecessor his speech writers could come up with. 

Publicly, he wanted us to trust him and believe that he had the best intentions and that everything would be ok.

The left is very big on “intentions,” by the way. It’s an enormously important word to them because it basically allows them to lie to you and me. Bidenomics was “intended” to help people—even though the perception by nearly everyone is that they are personally worse off than they were 3 years ago. Biden’s energy policies were intended to help move Americans to electric vehicles, create a cleaner environment, and make us less dependent on other countries for our energy supplies. In reality, his war against energy stung Americans in the pocketbook, made the cost of everything go up, caused dirty polluters to get rich while pumping more, and choked out our own ability to be energy-independent.

Yes, Public Biden says many things that Private Biden ensures will never occur.

He literally castigates policies from his predecessor as blatantly unpatriotic when he himself has sold out his nation on nearly every point where he can, at every turn, every time he has the chance.

He wants to engage us in wars that bog us down. His cabinet tells us to more or less pound sand if we can’t afford vehicles out of our price range. He is currently allowing our biggest enemy and threat to get away with poisoning our citizens, stamping out our borders, and arming themselves with technology that we are years behind them on. He also does that while fully allowing their espionage devices to gather intelligence over our most sensitive sites. 

He actually hates us so much that he turned the idea of people who simply want to see America return to her greatness into extremists who pose “threats” to his way of life. And he doesn’t merely think about it. He then goes and gives a national address from a place that resembles Mussolini in the seventh layer of hell to smear Americans who love our country on national prime-time television. 

In recent weeks, reports have surfaced on his vulgarity and temper regarding his campaign staff and how he blames everyone in the room other than himself for “bad polls.” (Because it could never ever be the fault of Scranton Joe.)

Overlook the fact that he threatens and bullies reporters. Overlook the fact that he has publicly laughed and mocked the idea of ever being held accountable when it comes to his family’s corruption. Never mind the way he openly smears the good people of this nation. He’s smug, smarter, and superior to everyone he encounters. 

He literally has to one-up people while working the rope lines with anecdotes that, in about 90% of the instances, never happened—or at minimum, happened far differently than he “remembers.”

In fact, aside from his Twitter/x feed (which sounds like a Chatbot AI intern writes it) Biden seldom ever says anything good about the nation that he supposedly “loves.”

Everything is horrible. Everyone is a “victim,” and they’re being “victimized” by their next-door neighbor. He pits us against each other and relishes coming up with attack lines against the nearly 80 million people who did not vote for him.

We’ve learned only in the last few days that his strong-arming of the Department of Justice is power-weaponizing that agency to go after his leading opponent for the 2024 elections.

And why? 

His opponent unabashedly loves this country and wants to see the people who make it what it is enjoying the prosperity it brings in a land and age where we succeed or fail based on our own initiative, not because President Nero gave us a thumbs-down before the lions.

Had his predecessor been in the White House today, there would have been no war in Ukraine, and Iran would have been too poor to fund Hamas’ terror network in Gaza. 

His Predecessor is willing to unleash American energy, which will go a long way to helping stimulate our economy, give small businesses more resources, bankrupt our enemies, and create a safer world. 

But fundamentally, almost anyone other than Biden will, on some level, remind us of how amazing this nation’s potential is and not make us feel guilty for loving her.

With Biden, there is no peace on earth. Put simply, he bears no goodwill to men.

And that’s what we need most this Christmas week!
