President Joe Biden was the first sitting President since Lyndon B. Johnson to announce he would not seek re-election to a second term after announcing he would run for re-election. The President's decision to not seek re-election was predicted and published in a PolitiDose commentary dated July 15, 2022 (34 months ago) and titled, "Why President Biden Will Not Seek Re-election." Now we find the media "circus" and the negative voices showing their ignorance over recent reports of President Biden's so called mental decline and others running the federal government for him and are clamoring for retribution, taking a page out of Trump and the GOP's play book.
The "circus" is trying its best to change the subject because they are trying to cover up the chaotic governing by Trump and his mental state of mind that is causing real problems. The words Trump used yesterday on Memorial Day in his Truth Social address to attack judges was mentally incompetent for a President. And he uses those mentally incompetent words almost daily to personally attack some one. When it comes to mental Acuity and Acumen, President Biden has the numbers and record to back up he was better prepared than Trump at governing.
President Biden's Cabinet and other appointees to high positions that carried out his policies and agenda were well qualified for those positions. The millionaires and billionaires that Trump appointed to those same positions were not only not qualified, they were appointed for one reason and that was to kiss Trump's ring. President Biden's economy was never chaotic, addressed the mess Trump left him and handled COVID, the loss of 2.7 million jobs and a economic recession. Trump's governing is chaotic, says his tariffs may cause a recession but that is OK and the people should accept it.
President Biden was mentally tough in supporting Ukraine when Russia invaded that country. Supported Ukraine with words and military aid, united our NATO allies to rally around Ukraine and established a solid front. Biden's mental acuity and acumen showed Presidential leadership concerning the war. The Trump mental attitude was he would end the war on day one, did no such thing, acted mentally unbalanced when he blew up his meeting with Ukraine's leader, withdrew from the peace talks and then said he was through with the process and demonstrated how Putin fooled him every step of the way.
So now, the media "circus" has decided to do a hatchet job on President Biden's mental health after the fact while accepting Trump's mental behavior as being the norm for Presidential behavior. They, like the GOP have allowed Trump to corrupt their own industry and news cycle of reporting. They are willing to overlook the accomplishments of President Biden term in office and stay silent on Trump's criminal record.
This writer predicted in all, what would take place during the Biden Presidency, how the negative voices would be out every day to try and damage the Biden administration and what would take place in a Trump #2 Presidency. And it has all come true in PolitiDose commentary. The final truth remains, the Biden Presidency was a time of governing with a SANE attitude and policies. That form of governing has escaped the Trump era.
