Joe Biden is seething about the results of the 2024 election.
Voters overwhelmingly rejected his policies by delivering a mandate in favor of Donald Trump and against Kamala Harris, who was, in essence, Biden 2.0 on steroids. While Biden’s term is almost over, some of his recent decisions and policies portray a defeated yet vengeful man who is determined to hurt Americans and the country before he leaves office.
Selling border wall materials
According to multiple reports, Biden was selling border wall materials before Trump would officially take office later this month. There is no conceivable reason for such irresponsible conduct. Due to Biden’s weak and reprehensible border policies, the country is overwhelmed with unvetted individuals that have entered the country illegally. Notwithstanding, the Biden administration decided to sell material for the border wall that played an integral role in helping to prevent illegal crossings.
Fortunately, a federal judge in Texas temporarily halted the Biden administration from doing so. However, the fact that Biden allegedly decided to do so should concern all Americans at a time when border security is of paramount importance in this country.
Iran sanctions waiver
Biden also recently decided to renew a sanctions waiver that would allow Iran access to approximately $10 billion. While Trump starved Iran financially during his first term, Biden has now provided Iran with billions of dollars to use as it sees fit by virtue of waiving such sanctions. This step, together with Biden’s dangerous border policies, jeopardizes the safety of all Americans at home and abroad, as well as those in many other countries around the world.
It is noteworthy that, during Trump’s first term, America was not involved in any new wars and various peace agreements were signed in the Middle East. Four years later, Russia and Ukraine are at war, the Middle East is on fire, and the nation faces the dangerous prospect of a third world war.
Drilling ban
Biden’s harmful decisions are not limited to border security, foreign policy, and domestic security, but also apply to energy, gas/oil, and the economy. As recently reported by Fox News, “President Biden announced an 11th-hour executive action on Monday that bans new drilling and further oil and natural gas development on more than 625 million acres of U.S. coastal and offshore waters.”
Biden’s decision is nonsensical and only serves to hurt Americans at a time when energy and gas prices are high, and Americans are hurting financially. While Trump has promised to take advantage of the energy/oil that is available in the United States, thereby lowering energy and gas prices, Biden’s decision, which he tries to justify in the name of climate and conservation, will hurt Americans, and is merely a parting shot from a disgruntled and defeated president.
According to Fox News, Trump’s incoming White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, recently wrote on X, “This is a disgraceful decision designed to exact political revenge on the American people who gave President Trump a mandate to increase drilling and lower gas prices. Rest assured, Joe Biden will fail, and we will drill, baby, drill.”
Biden’s recent decisions and policies do nothing to help Americans and put America last. His decisions reflect the conduct of a man who is bitter and who continues to seethe about the fact that Americans overwhelmingly rejected him, his policies, and his party. There is no reasonable explanation for these decisions other than for Biden to take a parting shot at the very people who rejected him.
Biden’s endgame appears to be about seeking vengeance against those who issued a mandate to Trump to fix the disaster that Biden created, and to put America first.
For the sake of the country, January 20, 2025, cannot come soon enough.
