Operation Rescue Joe: Celebrating Biden’s ‘Breathtaking’ ‘Hell of a Run’

President Joe Biden’s sycophants in the press went all out this month, trying to save him and his party from midterm doom.

They spent most of August championing Biden’s “wins” as they hyped the passage of his big government legislation and even credited him with preventing World War III.  

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough compared him to Ronald Reagan. CNN’s Ryan Lizza exclaimed: “He is an enormously consequential president and just judging him by his legislative agenda….he’s sort of in that modern pantheon now.”

Here is a quick montage of the leftist press’s adulation of Biden’s “remarkable” run by NewsBusters’ media editor Bill D’Agostino:

Here are some of the absurdest Biden-related acclamations that liberal journalists have made in the past month. 

Morning Joe Cheers on Old Joe: “Hell of a Run,” “All Moving In” His “Direction” 

Joe Scarborough is the co-host. “The last six years of Obama’s administration and Donald Trump’s time in the White House, Joe Biden has done more than them, not combined, two, three, four, five, six, seven times. It has been a remarkable two years legislatively. No matter how you slice it, Republicans must admit that this is true privately. It’s been a hell of a run.”…
Co-host Mika Brzezinksi: “Pull out 20,000 feet, world stage, preventing a nuclear war, preventing World War III, check. He survived two episodes of COVID and never had to go to the hospital. COVID’s under control….It is all moving in Joe Biden’s direction. He’s got his aviators on, and he’s just getting it done.”

“LBJ also a creature of the Senate, something Joe Biden has been criticized for, but you look at this landmark legislation, then you stack on top of that Truman-esque efforts with NATO, the historic expansion of NATO, what he’s been doing with Ukraine, walking the finest of lines, preventing World War III, while taking the lead around the world in defending freedom in Ukraine and central and eastern Europe, and suddenly, you’re like, ‘well, maybe senators do know how to do this job.’”

Joe’s “Breathtaking” “Remarkable” Run Like Reagan 

Joe Scarborough is the co-host. “When you’re comparing it to other presidents, you can look at LBJ. Ronald Reagan is another option. You can look at Bill Clinton….The list of accomplishments for Joe Biden and this Democratic Congress in a really divided climate just seem to keep growing.”…
New York TimesPeter Baker, Chief White House Correspondent: “For much of Biden’s presidency, they look like the Bad News Bears who couldn’t….figure out how to get things done. They looked exactly like the New York Yankees in the past two weeks. They look like they know how to hit the ball.”…
MSNBC’s It’s too early host Jonathan Lemiere: “On Build Back Better, on voting rights and other priorities. They seemingly couldn’t get it done. Now it has been a breathtaking reversal and remarkable run of success here, most of it while the President has been in COVID isolation….It caps off a remarkable run here from this President….It does rank up there with any modern president, the number of legislation done.”

Cheering Biden’s “Big Win” 

Substitute host Gio Benitez: “We’re going to turn now to a big victory at the White House. Biden is expected to sign this massive bill on health, tax and climate later today. Now this is the largest climate investment in U.S. history.”…
|Correspondent Cecilia Vega: “It’s such a big win for President Biden, he’s actually interrupting his vacation and flying back to White House today just for this bill signing….It is indeed a big one….The White House is calling this a once-in-a-generation investment….The White House is really planning to capitalize on this one.”

Inside the Beltway Mentality: Nevermind Inflation, Joe Is “On a Roll!” 

“If you look at our new poll, I mean he’s getting credit for almost nothing, he’s on a roll, I mean there’s no question that Joe Biden is on a roll legislatively, on the national security front, but he’s getting no credit for it. You should also remember that inflation remains a significant factor. Gas prices are falling and have been decreasing for the past two months. It is amazing to see the unemployment rates. Both the unemployment and wage growth continue to increase. It’s just not keeping pace with inflation.” 
— ABC News chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl on ABC’s This WeekAugust 7, 2007. 

Biden’s Inflation Plan Has a “Great Name,” Problem Solved! 

“Inflation Reduction Act, great name. Now for all of those who say, ‘President Biden, what are you going to do about inflation?’ You’ve got it. Explain to us how it’s going to help the American people.”
— Host Stephanie Ruhle to Democratic Representative Katie Porter on MSNBC’s The 11th HourAugust 12, 

Reagan-esque Biden Not “Getting a Whole Lot of Credit” 

“We just saw the new investments in chip-making in the U.S. Early, big investments in the U.S. capacity to make vaccines….the infrastructure bill….More oil drilling, here! Here are more vaccines There is a possibility of a victory, and more clean energy. And possibly the biggest in history…..So far, President Biden doesn’t seem to be getting a whole lot of credit for this….When you add it up, it is a remarkable record….The Biden view is that he is, this is a payoff, a vindication, for playing the long game. So when that confidant said ‘We are Reagan,’ their extension of that was, we had a big plan, it’s getting in place.”
— Axios co-founder and former New York Times and Washington Post reporter Mike Allen on MSNBC’s It’s too earlyAugust 1, 

Biden Is “Enormously Consequential President,” in “Modern Pantheon” 

“For history, I think it’s a pretty big deal. You know, if you add up those seven pieces of legislation, it’s a $3.5 trillion agenda that Biden and the Democrats have passed since early last year. There’s really nothing like that in terms of that scale. You have to go back to – depending on how you define these things – to LBJ. So, I think for history, Biden – I don’t think there’s much debate anymore, he is an enormously consequential president and just judging him by his legislative agenda, you know, he’s sort of in that modern pantheon now.”
— Senior political analyst Ryan Lizza on CNN’s Neue DayAugust 8, 

New Spending and Taxes = “Successful” President

“So, President Biden has been racking up wins, the American Recovery Act or COVID stimulus package, nearly $2 trillion. Infrastructure and Jobs Act $550billion, Chips and Science Act $280billion, and now, what Democrats are calling The Inflation Reduction Act which will generate $700billion in federal revenue, is being proposed by Democrats. Would you concede that President Biden is one of the most legislatively successful presidents in modern history?”
