Joe Biden’s One-Year Metamorphosis on ‘Shutting Down the Virus’ Explained in One Perfect Graphic – Opinion

Then-Democratic candidate for president Joe Biden’s main pledge throughout the year last year was that he was going to “shut down the virus.” He said it on campaign stops, during interviews, on social media, at debates, and the like that he would do what he claimed President Donald Trump wouldn’t and couldn’t do – comprehensively deal with the Wuhan virus pandemic. Kamala Harris, his eventual vice-presidential nominee made similar remarks claimsWhat they will do to combat the coronavirus, if elected.

Prior to Election Day, though, they had an odd way of proving their supposed commitment to shutting down the virus (assuming one’s belief is that it could be shut down through vaccinations). Both Biden and Harris repeatedly undermined the vaccines that were being developed under Trump’s “Operation Warp Speed” initiative. Trump called Harris and Biden out, telling them that they were playing politics with lives by encouraging vaccine hesitancy.

But, after the election, something magical happened. The vaccines became safe for use. The exact same media, Democrats including Biden and Harris who had told us not to worry about safety were now urging people to get vaccines.

Since taking office, they’ve made pushing vaccinations a priority along with federalizing the response to the pandemic, the latter of which was a strategy doomed to fail. It hasn’t worked. And now a year out from their promises to “shut down the virus” by coordinating a “national response” to the virus, not only is President Biden himself admitting that “there is no federal solution” to shutting down the virus but senior members of his administration including top health advisers like. Dr. Anthony Fauci, CDC director, and Dr. Rochelle Walensky are conveniently loosening the guidelines around CDC recommendations. This is admittedly based upon economic and political considerations.

This administration’s – particularly Biden’s – one-year metamorphosis on combatting the coronavirus has been both quite remarkable and infuriating at the same time, especially considering the fact that some of the solutions and admissions that are now being made by these people are things Republicans including Trump said last year. For their observations, they were basically branded as murderers. But the new sheriff in town being a Democrat means different rules for how the media operates, and accordingly, the MSM’s outrage over the abrupt change and less science-y approach to dealing with the virus has been mostly muted.

As I was catching up on the news earlier today, I came across a cartoon graphic that I felt perfectly encapsulated Biden’s flip flop on fighting the virus from 2020 to 2021:

Here’s the video version of the above graphic, first showing Biden admitting earlier this week that there was “no federal solution” to shut down the virus and then the numerous times Biden promised last year to “shut it down”:

As we approach 2022, all of this raises serious questions. It is really think they were going to be able to “shut down the virus”? Was it a political maneuver to win elections? Or did they know that this was a sham policy with no real basis in fact? Most Republicans have always believed the latter was the case – and in my view, that belief was validated in no uncertain terms this week. I suspect after what’s been said this week millions who were duped into believing otherwise are going to wake up to that sobering fact as well.

Biden’s 180 along with those of his most trusted medical advisers says it all, in my opinion, with absolutely none of it being good.
