Whatever happened to, “The Buck Stops Here”?
Being in the big chair, no matter how deficient you may be, means taking responsibility for the big decisions. It means that you don’t get to blame subordinates for your decisions and the consequences. But, faced with crippling inflation, Biden’s people are trying to do that.
The president was irritated that his aides had assured him the inflation problem was “transitory,” according to two sources familiar with the discussions, an outgrowth of pandemic-induced shortages and other supply-chain kinks. He also wondered whether his advisers had paid too little heed to warnings that the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan would flood the economy with too much cash, acting as kindling for inflation.
We’re getting a bunch of these stories now about how Biden questioned the student loan bailout and the other leftist crackpottery his administration has been doing.
Whether or not they’re true, it’s also irrelevant.
Biden still signed off on them. He made the decision, to whatever extent he’s capable of making decisions, and then second-guessing himself and blaming his advisers fixes nothing. It just establishes that he’s irresponsible and incapable of doing the job.
Biden, who usually appears jovial in public but is not shy about flashing his temper in front of his West Wing aides, took out his frustration on National Economic Council Director Brian Deese in meetings, according to three sources familiar with those discussions. Klain disputes this account.
He’s not shy about flashing his temper in public either, but no one cares about his tantrums. His advisers can try to backbite each other and shift the blame away from the boss, but the damage is still done.
If Only Stalin Knew is a cult of personality argument. In America, we presume that presidents know or that they ought to know, and either way they deserve to be fired, either for stupidity or failure or incompetence.
Inflation was an obvious outcome. And the buck, now worth less, stops with Biden.
Inflation has been a deadly poison throughout history, too tempting for governments to resist.
So easy to spend other people’s money.
I find the knowledge that our President is blameless tremendously reassuring.
me too
Denying responsibility for anything bad, while claiming credit for anything good, is simply part of the mosaic that makes up this awful person.
and politicians in general
This guy makes me want to become an anarchist. The farce continues, and it can be because there are all the elements upstream for this farce to be possible today. The socialist bureaucratic power has worked well. The socialist octopus has infiltrated all over this country. All institutions are plagued by leftist thinking, and leftist puritanism is repugnantly conformist, everything it touches is doomed to become decadent. Nothing the cultural left touches can thrive. Anything this left touches is destroyed. Absolutely everything. The grand leftist plan is underway.
Americans must regain control of their money and their destiny. And fight these people who are nothing but slavers.
In God We Trust.
And most importantly, their dignity.
Yes, and dignity has to do with spirituality, and these people on the left have a huge problem with spirituality. The first spiritual act there is, and the first of all dignity with respect to oneself, is to put food in the mouth, and these people are specialists in creating famines.
With “Bite Me”,The BUCK Never got there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Executive material Joe Biden is not. He has zero executive ability.
Zero leadership skills period.
He’s never worked anywhere but government.
That means he’s never worked anywhere.
Worse than the Clinton Defense, used by both bill and hill, but It was bill’s first, and I hear his voice saying, “Nobody told me, heck, the buck never got here!”
Yeah, nobody told me so I had to learn the hard way. So I passed that lesson on to my nephew once, when he said “But nobody told me!” So I said, you have to figure it out for yourself, even in noone tells you. He turned out to be a pretty sharp kid after that.
Does Biden really need to complain to adviser’s for letting him spend more money than Trump?!!!, Duh, obviously not morons. Do you think your miracle vaccines that come to save your miracle lives come for free?!!!! Obviously not whores!!!! Pay your money and shut up!!!
Is your comment in code? I can’t make sense of it.
*advisers*!!!!! tell Biden how to spend more to save your miracle lives twerps!!!!
Just like a dem to blame others for their own failures.
Those darned aides! What’s the matter with them? Well, anything a Democrat president needs to keep the focus off the left’s permanent strategy of buying votes, while pocketing truckloads of cash for themselves.
Senile and out of his mind Biden proves he is Unfit
He has been incompetent & evil his whole time in D.C.! Decades! PLEASE get us out of our misery!
.. And all I was going to say is that I’ve NEVER known ANY politician who’s ever admitted responsibility for being wrong about Anything… Ever!
… like it’s a genetic fault or something…
Its both a genetic fault and a consequence of the election system. I do know one good politician, very thick skinned as a Vietnam Vet. But the local Progressives drove all the other potentially good local politicians out of politics via smear campaigns against them.
Biden wants to lead the NWO. That’s what he said,. Hmmmm
At present Joe is pitiful, but years ago he attacked Justice Thomas during the senate confirmation hearings. This career thug politician is purposely destroying our economy.
This dictator and his corrupt administration have done much damage to us as individuals, as families, and communities. Vaccine and mask totalitarianism, along with the lockdowns took a tragic toll on people. Isolation from others took a heavy toll on all of us. I know it took an unbearable toll on me.
The fact that Joe doesn’t accept responsibility for his student loan forgiveness debacle is just one example of his purposeful infliction of pain on the taxpayers.
Joe might be suffering from Parkinson’s, or senility, but he’s not alone in his awful plans for our country. China has been negatively affecting certain segments of the American economy for years. For example, certain manufacturing companies lost a lot of revenue. That was years ago.
Now we should examine the Biden family’s nefarious ties with China; how they enriched themselves while selling Americans out! And the awful MSM attacks on regular innocent Americans; political persecution; weaponization of, well, just what isn’t weaponized these days. The technocrats use their tools against us to control, coerce, deceive, and manipulate. Looks like Godfather IV, doesn’t it?
