OPINION EDITORIAL: I am not a Trumpster, but neither am I blind. I do have good old fashioned common sense, and as a independent can see what currant policies have done to our country Biden has no answers to the nation’s problems except for empty promises: Name the crisis, and President Joe Biden and his team have no clue how to handle it, except to claim his stalled “Build Back Better” spending plans will somehow fix it. Yet his past spending has fueled the mess by dumping extra billions into circulation, creating record-high inflation. And the no-strings cash he’s sent to families plus his failure to end the pandemic as he’d vowed have created worker shortages — adding to the supply-chain crunch that has Americans worried about canceled Christmas, even as it further fuels inflation as too much cash chases too few goods. As his no-enforcement policies have illegal immigration hitting new highs, Team Biden’s only “solution” is to hide the consequences by flying planeloads of underage migrants into places like suburban New York in the dead of night, severely straining already-overtaxed local services. Uncle Joe can’t even get through a softball Democrat-loaded town hall without embarrassing himself. As he struggled for some semblance of coherence Thursday night, his aides running the show were on damage-control duty, watching for what they’d have to walk back — such as his off-the-cuff vow to bring in the National Guard to ease supply-chain woes. It should have been easy for the new president to bring the country back from its pandemic low: “The Trump administration purchased enough vaccine doses to fully vaccinate at least a large percentage of the 190 million people who have received two shots at present. CNN admitted in fact-checking Biden’s lie in the town-hall claim that “I went out and bought everything I could do and buy in sight, and it worked. Four in 10 US households face serious financial difficulties, while Biden admitted at his CNN town hall, “I don’t have a near-term answer” even to surging gas prices — a problem he also helped create, with his war on domestic drilling and pipelines. He’s got no answers to anything, except for empty promises that he struggles to even keep straight.
