Biden is Brewing a National Crisis
By J. Robert Smith
Have we ever had a president who in mere months made so many dumb, intemperate decisions, thereby precipitating major crises? You’d think that the Afghanistan and border fiascos would suffice for one four-year term. But the smart money is that we haven’t seen the last of Biden-manufactured crises. Biden is a nightmare version of Pig-Pen of the Peanuts comic strip. A perpetual cloud of incompetence, conceits, corruption, and shabby political motives swirls around him.
Per Richard Fernandez at PJ Media, September 27:
As Niall Stanage of the Hill put it, “President Biden’s biggest vulnerability isn’t any single issue. It’s the risk that he could be seen as losing control of events.”
The dissolution of the landscape means the Biden administration isn’t plagued by any one malady anymore but by multiple organ failure.
What’s perilous to the nation isn’t likely any one crisis, as Fernandez and Stanage alluded to, but some combination. Afghanistan and the border crises aren’t that combination -- at least not yet. But both do threaten to be part of a toxic mix leading to greater crisis during Biden’s term.
Other potential areas ripe for trouble are the economy, a new round of COVID lockdowns, the 2022 midterm elections, and leftist instigated unrest. An economic downturn would be a big domino falling, setting off a chain reaction. The other three areas are likely intertwined. More in a moment.
Afghanistan wasn’t a one-off, in that what happened there stays there. Afghanistan again becomes a staging area for Islamic terrorism, which threatens the homeland. Biden’s surrender there promises to spin off threats to American interests and national security elsewhere.
America’s principal adversaries -- Xi, Putin, the mullahs, and Kim Jong-un -- know, like most Americans do, that Biden is in over his head. More, the U.S. is divided and conflicted. Reported the Epoch Times on September 28, compounding homegrown troubles, the PRC is engaging in subversion here through their “3 Warfares” doctrine.
