Biden Botches the Effort to Clean up the Mess of His ‘No Federal Solution’ Comment – Opinion

Joe Biden created a firestorm during a virtual meeting with the country’s governors on COVID when he said that that there was “no federal solution,” and that it was going to be up to the states. When it was time to ask the governors questions about that, and many other topics, his people pushed the media out of the room. Then after the meeting, at about midday on Monday, he told one whopper of a lie about not rejecting an expert’s plan to help increase test kits for Americans and bailed out of there on vacation for a week to Delaware.

It didn’t go over well, particularly since he’d run on the exact opposite — that he had a “plan,” that he was going to shut down the virus. His chief of staff Ron Klain put out a tweet that hasn’t aged well, as we noted.

That was pure nonsense. His ‘plan’ seemed to be to glom off of what President Donald Trump had already put in place, while at the same time attacking Trump.

Biden was mocked for appearing to abandon the party.

Biden, or more likely the people behind the account, tried today to tidy up the mess created by his comment.

“My Administration has the back of every governor fighting COVID-19 in their state,” the Biden account claimed. “Last week, I rolled out a federal plan to tackle Omicron by adding vaccination and booster capacity, hospital equipment, staff, and more. We’re going to get through this by working together.”

What was the reaction to that tweet? It didn’t go over well. People weren’t buying it at this point.

But the bottom line is people are tired of the complete confusion that the Biden team has offered, of not knowing from one minute to the next what the heck is going on and when the Biden team may change what they’re saying, yet again. It seems that his plan was to post cringeworthy photos and videos of strange people in the White House. That was supposed convince you to get your vaccines. I’m not sure who they thought was supposed to be convinced by these things.

Is it any wonder that they are stuck on failure, when that’s their approach? There’s a reason “NoPlanJoe” trended on Twitter yesterday.

One of the fundamental problems with Obama’s mandates is that if there isn’t a federal solution, why does he continue to push them? That and demonizing the unvaccinated has not helped things, and it’s only fractured the country even more. Many of those who could be required to provide health care have been fired as a result.

The CDC has also changed its guidelines regarding isolating people after they test positive for COVID to make it easier to get them back on track. You have the absurd situation that people get fired for not being fully vaccinated but are being forced to return to work faster after being diagnosed with COVID. Is this not absurd? That’s where we are with the Biden “plan” — a patchwork quilt of nonsense.

Unfortunately, it isn’t just COVID; this is the way it is on everything with Biden, from Afghanistan to inflation as well. Voting out all Democrat candidates that are not in our party’s best interest will put an end the madness.
