Throughout the presidential campaign, corrupt demented imbecile Joe Biden presented himself, and was presented by the fake news as, “a moderate.” As with most Democrat messages this was partly true and mostly false. As for the true part, it’s a matter of degrees. Having been in Washington for half a century, Biden is a link to the Democrat Party’s past. Lest we forget, in the not so distant past there actually were moderate, and even conservative, Democrats. When Biden arrived in Washington, our politics had not yet devolved into the polarized mess it has become. There were 55 Democrats in the Senate, and 17 of them were from the South. Both Senators from Maryland were Republicans, and there were Republican Senators in Oregon, Delaware, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York. The Southern Democrats weren’t the only conservatives. Frank Church, Birch Bayh, and Henry Jackson were conservative, especially on fiscal issues. Fast forward to Ronald Reagan, the first challenger to the control of the Washington establishment. Like Donald Trump, Reagan was hated by Democrats, and was opposed by members of his own Party. The nation began to split apart ideologically. Democrats declared Reagan too old, dumb, and unfit to be president. Fast forward to 2000, and a close election in Florida. Democrats alleged election fraud, and declared G.W. Bush illegitimate, dumb, and unfit to be president. The polarization continued. Fast forward to 2016 and Trump. Democrats alleged election fraud, and declared Trump illegitimate, dumb, and unfit to be president. Seeing a pattern here? In 2021, Democrats and Republicans are in two very different, and sometimes armed, camps. It’s sad. Joe Biden was sold to us as a return to normalcy after the aberration of rude, crude Donald Trump. But what’s normal? Whatever the question, is Joe Biden really the answer? And is he moderate? By 1974 standards, maybe. So in today’s world of woke morons, cancel culture, communist professors, ignorant youth, Schumer, Pelosi and the Squad, Biden must be moderate, right? Wrong! Enter Democrat falsehood in all its glory. The problem is that Joe Biden isn’t an ideologue, he’s a weather vane. The tough on crime, busing opposing Biden would be moderate, but that Biden’s gone. 2021 Biden claims to be moderate, but actions speak louder than lying words. Democrats lambasted Donald Trump as a tyrant, who ruled by executive decree. That was a lie, of course. Every Trump order was litigated, and ultimately upheld. Biden has been president for two weeks. So far, he’s issued more than 45 executive orders, nearly all of which are designed to mollify or empower the loony Left. Biden has virtually ended immigration enforcement. He’s stopped work on the border wall, so we won’t need Trump’s “beautiful door.” Invaders can simply walk around it. The enhanced vetting of people from 7 terrorist States in the Middle East was cancelled. Detention of illegal aliens was cancelled. Paraphrasing the late Jim Dooley (anyone remember him?) Biden has encouraged illegal border crossings, by practically yelling, “Come on up!” We won’t need Catch and Release, because if you don’t catch you don’t need to release. Trump had the economy humming before the Wuhan invasion. Once they let people go back to work it will roar again. A smart politician, who fancied himself moderate, would recognize the underlying strength, be thankful he inherited a good economy, leave things alone, and then take credit for the results. Biden is neither smart nor moderate. Because he’s beholden to the nuts on the Left, Biden’s royal decrees seem designed to destroy small business, kill jobs, and stifle a post-Wuhan recovery. Biden has decreed his support for a nationwide $15 an hour minimum wage. The federal government pays its own employees less in areas with lower costs of living, because it recognizes that it costs less to live in Alabama than in New York. They consider this fair, and it is. But the small business owner in Tuscaloosa must pay entry level employees the same amount they pay on Broadway. This, they claim is not only fair but imperative. The Left wants to imposes income equality, you see. Other countries have it, like Cuba and North Korea. What could go wrong? Everything. The $15 wage is a sop to the prime Democrat victim-hood constituency, low income minority groups. Only it doesn’t help them. It either causes employers to cut the number and hours of workers, or it puts them out of business, and everyone’s out of a job. Great. In another decree, Biden stopped the Keystone Pipeline – again. This is a sop to the environmental nuts. Must end fossil fuels, you see. Biden has also decreed climate change an essential element of US foreign policy and national security, and has rejoined the Paris Climate Accords. That’ll show Trump, huh? Only problem is that all these actions will do is cost jobs, most of them high-paying labor union jobs, you know, those people Democrats keep saying they’re trying to help. But it stops the oil from being shipped into the U.S., right? Wrong! Without the economical, environmentally friendly pipeline to move the oil, it will be shipped by train or truck. The same amount of oil comes in, but on trains and trucks that have to burn oil in order to move oil, plus the inevitable weather delays, crashes and spills. All great for the environment. And what about that foreign policy thing? Biden accused Trump of snubbing our allies. Last time I looked, Canada was an ally, and the Biden pipeline order just screwed them, without so much as a “by your leave.” Hands across the sea, right? Biden owes Black Lives Matter and the rest of the race hustlers too. So King Sleepy Joe rescinded the Trump administration’s 1776 Commission, which would have required schools to teach real history instead of the 1619 Project’s “America was founded to promote slavery” bullshit. And another regal decree set the stage for the federal government to rescind zoning laws in the suburbs. Trump may have warned about that several times during the campaign. Simply put, Biden’s no moderate, but he is a return to normalcy. No, not the normal America we remember, where opposing views could be discussed openly and honestly, and the Congress once in while worked together for the good of the citizen. No, they don’t mean normal for us. It’s a return to normal for Biden and the Swamp creatures in both Parties, who are once again free to tax, spend, lie, cheat and steal. Now that’s normal.
