What was once done, has now been undone...

 





"Joe Biden needs to understand one very important thing. This was not just Trump being mean and vindictive. It was the country speaking. The vote in November's election was a complete rejection, repudiation of Biden-omics. Biden took us down a dark tunnel, and if Harris had won the election, that tunnel might have ended up in mayhem and disaster."



Part of me felt a bit bad for Sleepy Joe during Trump's inauguration speech. A small part of me. A much larger part of me, however, did not care that Joe was dying a thousand deaths listening to Donald Trump talk about how hosed up Biden has left the country. Why do I say that? I am one of the millions of Americans who are on fixed income and really took it in the shorts when Biden jacked the price of stuff we need to live on by over 20%. Yes, I am bitter about that. It was all so unnecessary. But Donald Trump the businessman, the pragmatist, will fix what is fixable.

The Democrats tried just about everything during the past eight years to make Donald Trump's life a living hell. Shortly after Biden was sworn in, Biden had executive order on top of executive order, undoing all the good that Trump had done during his first term. This was painful for Donald Trump, as he knew what Biden was doing would be harmful to people like me. But Biden did not care. Biden's executive orders were just the first of many harmful and hurtful things he did in his four years in office.

Yesterday, it was Trump's turn to administer "death by a thousand cuts" to Biden's legacy. Was Trump gentle about it? Not really. Was he mean about it? Maybe a bit. But he was factual. Every executive order he wrote which was a reversal to Biden's Green Build Back Better, was brutally tough for Biden and Harris to witness. After watching this for a while, I turned to my wife and reminded her that it sucks to lose. For a prize as sweet as being president of this great nation, winning is very sweet, and losing has a very bitter taste. 

Joe Biden needs to understand one very important thing. This was not just Trump being mean and vindictive. It was the country speaking. The vote in November's election was a complete rejection, repudiation of Biden-omics. Biden took us down a dark tunnel, and if Harris had won the election, that tunnel might have ended up in mayhem and disaster.

As the helicopter whisked the Biden and Harris teams away from Washington yesterday, I really did have no feelings at all. Maybe I was just empty. What a waste of four years. What a waste not allowing the American people to live out their dreams. The immature part of me wanted to say something like, "See yaw - would not want to be yaw". Maybe I will just leave it at that.
