Kamala Harris: Biden Was Fully Competent To Be President, Not To Run For President

America literally and figuratively dodged a bullet.
Mamdani voters heading to the polls.
“…The COVID pandemic provided a natural experiment in experts’ competence. The results were unambiguous. Every major government recommendation was proven wrong: masks did not work, then they were essential, then two were better than one. The virus did not spread asymptotically; then, asymptomatic spread became the primary driver. Two weeks to flatten the curve became two years of flattening.
The curve remained unimpressed. Models predicted tens of millions of deaths in the immediate near-term, though the natural case fatality rate proved to be a fraction of those initial dire estimates. Much of the death toll ended up as an outcome of the public health establishment’s recommendations: their warnings to stay indoors to avoid getting sick, their war on doctors promoting early self-treatment at home, and their encouragement of the widespread use of ventilators, which caused tremendous harm.
The models were wrong about the baseline, the intervention, and the outcome, despite being ‘peer-reviewed’ (another word for ‘immune to reality’).
When the interventions failed, America’s 80,000 health bureaucrats did not resign in disgrace or apologize. The CDC requested larger budgets. The FDA approved more emergency authorizations. Several officials were promoted, while parents who questioned school closures at board meetings were investigated as potential domestic terrorists. How did Anthony Fauci—whose record on AIDS, swine flu, and COVID was at best uneven—end up the highest-paid federal employee and a media celebrity? Why does failure never disqualify these experts?
The answer lies on August 15, 1971, when President Richard Nixon appeared on television. President Nixon announced a temporary suspension of the convertibility of the dollar into gold, which would then become permanent. This decision removed the last constraint on money creation. Between 1971 and 2024, the Fed’s balance sheet expanded from $80 billion to over $8 trillion—a hundredfold increase —causing not only inflation in goods and services but also in expertise.
Thus, a new species of bureaucrat was born: the fiat expert…”

I could post their latest ramblings here to demonstrate the point, but who cares?


The underlying foundation of Democrat policies and messaging is that the voters are idiots.


Related reminder of just who these people are:
“…Now, I am making the assumption that the people pledging to commit crimes to support their perceived absolute right to free stuff from American taxpayers are, in fact, Democrats. There may indeed be a few down-on-their-luck Republicans impacted by the lingering effects of the Biden Recession that have had to rely on government handouts to feed their children, but they don’t seem like the type threatening to break the law. I’m also assuming those would-be looters are not Libertarians, as none of them strike me as the sort to have Milton Friedman books in their apartments…”
And the yellow journalism of lefty media:

Ted Cruz:
“…Officially it’s about drug traffickers. In reality, Trump is encircling a Marxist dictatorship and Chinese-Russian base — and reasserting American power in the Caribbean Basin…”
