Biden’s Delta variant response has been abysmal. Lots of people, myself included, thought Biden was set up for an easy win with Covid since the numbers were already crashing when he was installed into office and all he had to do was hand out the Trump vaccines and finish the job his predecessor started—then take credit for every bit of it.
Then Delta happened.
Inflation seems to be settling in for the long haul. That alone, can sink a presidency. He quasi-pulled us out of Afghanistan so he deserves some points for that.
If I was Biden’s adviser I would tell him to do something/anything at the southern border. The media has been obediently trying to keep a lid on it but that’s not going to keep.
