Biden’s Desperate Agenda Amidst Plummeting Poll Numbers

Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce and former Rep. Patrick Murphy discussed the upcoming White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Fox News, but it was Biden’s poor polling numbers that dominated the conversation. With a new CNN national poll showing Trump leading by six points – one of the biggest gaps yet – and several critical swing states falling in favor of Trump according to Fox News surveys, all signs point towards defeat for President Joe Biden in November. This has led some experts to speculate that it could be desperation from an unpopular president causing his administration’s recent flurry of executive activity. In just the past few weeks alone, there have been over a dozen new initiatives and rules passed by federal agencies including banning development of Alaska’s National Petroleum Reserve – likely to impact the country for years to come. The Biden team appears to be preparing for defeat in November’s midterm elections with these policies that could potentially disappear if they are passed later on this year, as Congress has 60 days to nix rules promulgated by federal agencies through a simple majority vote. Some decisions seem designed to attract targeted voters – such as forgiving student loans or not banning menthol cigarettes which are favored by Blacks – while others appear simply intended for the progressives in power, like new Title IX and EEOC rules on hiring criminals being seen as “racist.” The FTC’s recent intervention to block luxury fashion firm Tapestry’s acquisition of Capri is an example of overreach and defeat. Aside from Khan failing several times at blocking major acquisitions – such as Meta buying the virtual reality company Within, Microsoft acquiring Activision or Albertson merging with Kroger – she denies that mergers can create efficiencies for consumers while also criticizing companies’ success. Instead of tackling fundamental air traffic control infrastructure, Department Of Transportation demands are forcing airlines to “immediately” refund money for delayed flights and reimbursing passengers in cases where equipment such as TVs is faulty – adding headaches to an already struggling industry that toggles between profits and losses. With his EPA now releasing new power plant emissions rules set on phasing out wide-scale use of carbon capture technology, which doesn’t exist at a large scale yet, Biden could be undermining the country’s energy security – potentially facing overturning similar policies adopted by Obama in 2016 due to executive overreach. These are not sensible policies; they appear more like wish-lists and fantasies of an unpopular president’s desperate administration rather than sound decision making for a nation struggling with poor poll numbers, disruptive protests at home, rising threats around the world, sinking consumer confidence, resurgent inflation – all signs pointing towards defeat in November.
