Our presumptive present-elect got up on stage yesterday to set the agenda for his new debacle. Rather than unity and prosperity, two points that incoming presidents like to stress, he's talking about darkness.
“Our darkest days in the battle against Covid are ahead of us, not behind us,” he said at a year-end news conference in Wilmington, Delaware.
That might sum up his entire presidency. ark days. Not unity and growth, but darkness. How very inspiring. He went further, saying that he's willing to bail out cities and states who have wrecked their own economies.
Biden said the country needs to support state and local governments, which have seen resources plunge during the pandemic, and also offer other economic stimulus.
No, Joe, we don't. Those states and cities that are struggling as a result of this pandemic are struggling because of the decisions that local leaders made. They need to live within their means, and if their means are much reduced as a result of disastrous decisions, then that is not our problem. If lockdowns worked, both New York and California would be Covid-free.
The Federal government has no business bailing out governors and mayors who worked against the best interests of their people. Those were political decisions and those politicians should be forced to live with the ramifications of those decisions.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to check a skinny, bony turkey that I have on the smoker.
