The corporate-controlled press is doing everything it can to prop up Joe Biden.
Despite that effort, the President’s approval rating remains stuck in mud.
And Chris Christie just torched ‘FDR wannabe’ Joe Biden and Fake News lapdogs didn’t know what to do.
Democrats are under the impression that Joe Biden was elected with a mandate to be a “transformational” President.
As Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) recently told The New York Times, “Nobody elected him to be FDR.”
But Democrats live under the illusion that they become popular by simply passing giant spending bills.
And former New Jersey Republican Governor Chris Christie threw cold water on Democrats’ celebration of President Biden signing bills into law.
During an ABC News panel discussion, Governor Christie responded to lead anchor George Stephanopoulos touting Biden’s latest jobs numbers, although he failed to mention lower labor force participation rates.
“Yeah but people can’t keep up with the costs of living their lives,” Christie responded. “So they say, okay great, I’ve got a job, that’s a good thing. But to get to that job I got to fill my car with gas and it costs that much more. Then when I’m on my way home from work, I got to go to the supermarket and I get absolutely tanked there from a dollar perspective and then I look at what’s going on with my kids, if I’m sending them to school, going to college, all those expenses are going way, way up. And people say yeah, I have a job, but my life is worse now than it was two years ago.”
“And we know from Ronald Reagan, that that’s an incredibly powerful question. Am I better off now than I was two years ago?” he continued. “And the American people don’t feel it and that’s why Joe Biden is in the 30s.”
Chris Christie is completely correct.
Record-high inflation is absolutely crushing the American people, and President Biden’s response was to simply spend even more money and further drive up inflation.
Biden was defiant in his claims that the federal government spending more money than it has (aka printing money out of thin air and pumping it into the economy) did not lead to inflation, and his White House brazenly re-defined the meaning of a recession.
Democrats are simply trying to happy-talk their way through economic reality.
“He’s getting credit for almost nothing,” ABC’s Jonathan Karl chimed in like a dutiful lapdog. “He’s on a roll. I mean, there’s no question that Joe Biden is on a roll legislatively, on the national security front, but he’s getting no credit for it.”
Again, Democrats believe Presidents become popular by just passing any bill and every bill.
These big-spending bills are not making Americans’ lives appreciably better.
“It’s an inside Washington roll,” Christie explained. “Like, they won on the Inflation Reduction Act, which is a ridiculous name, as you pointed out in the interview… They got Democrats to actually vote for a Democrat bill, what are we going to do? Like, drop the confetti at the White House?”
Once again, Chris Christie is correct.
The elites atop the Democrat Party are completely removed from the concerns of the American people.

No comment except, she does not sound very conservative. Cannot comment further, I have never heard of her and stopped reading Washington Post years ago – not worth 25cents to buy it.

Impeachment day? How about fake conservative stomping day?
That face looks like it’s been stomped a few times already.

If December 18th should become a National Holiday, I would think it would be called “The National Liberal Democratic Crying Day..” Seeing how they have been doing this for almost 3 damn years..

Well Jennifer Rubin, if the left wins and takes over, then you will be one of the first people to be marched down down as a Jew to the gas house as an example for your fellow undesirables. You think you are exempt but you are not, you are low on the totem pole and you will be done in as a woman, a hypocrite and very unimportant. You have to be so stupid to believe all the crap you are spewing.
