Joe Biden Goes Full Ron Burgundy in Reality-Bending Speech on High Prices – Opinion

Sometimes I sit back and wonder how Joe Biden’s presidency could get more absurd. Before I have any ideas, however, Joe Biden always takes the initiative and raises the bar.

Today, the president gave a speech to address the high prices — specifically high gas prices — that are hitting Americans so hard. Inflation is making a huge impact on everything, from grocery bill to car rental fees.

In speaking to those woes, Biden managed to simply insult everyone’s intelligence while also going full Ron Burgundy reading the teleprompter, and that was when his brain wasn’t grinding to a complete halt.

Remember, this guy claims he’s going to run for reelection in 2024.

But while Biden’s inability to function as a normal adult is what draws the most eyes, his substantive comments were no better and deserve their own bit of ridicule. In talking about the explosion in gas prices, the president took no responsibility, claiming that his ridiculous “climate change” policies, which have included canceling major pipelines and freezing federal oil and gas leases, aren’t to blame.

I can find no evidence whatsoever that crushing tens of thousands of jobs in the fossil fuel industry has resulted in an influx of jobs due to “climate change” provisions. I honestly have no idea what this guy is talking about, though, that’s hardly an unusual occurrence. This is no coincidence. The president has made numerous policies that have resulted in a massive increase in gas prices. To ignore the responsibility of others is mind-numbing.

Biden wasn’t done, though. He managed to make things even worse by lecturing Americans on having “perspective.”

Americans should remember that America’s economy was once booming under Donald Trump, but is in an economic depression under Joe Biden. This isn’t complicated stuff. Biden was determined to become the president. Now he can own all of that. Biden was not given a dying and critically ill economic system. Instead, Biden was given a recovering economy that had already begun to grow if he did not step out. Instead, Biden doubled down on radicalism and used the pandemic as an excuse to “transform” the economy. How’s that worked out?

Given all that, it’s no great shock when faux shows of empathy like this fall on deaf ears.

Biden should stop caring about us and step out of our way. Biden wants to discuss perspective. Well, here’s some for him: While he visits his beach house every weekend, normal Americans can’t afford to visit their families this holiday season. That’s largely his fault, both as a result of his inept leadership and his malicious disregard for enacting policies that actually help working-class people. That’s the truth.
