Biden's 2022 Setting Up For Political Disaster

Joe Biden faces an avalanche of problems when he returns to the White House in the new year.
For starters, Covid - the virus he vowed to 'shut down' the moment he entered office - is out of control. Just weeks ago, he warned the unvaccinated that they face a "winter of severe illness and death."
Yet the most vaccinated major US cities are setting new records for Covid infections, vaccinated athletes are collapsing across the world, and 2/3 of the Belgian staff at a fully-vaccinated antarctic base have Covid.
Now, the CDC has pivoted to a 'pox party' strategy by essentially encouraging people to spread the mildly symptomatic Omicron variant with a shortened quarantine period (5 days vs. 10), followed by 'get back to work with a mask' for five more days. The agency also dropped end-of-infection PCR testing guidelines because 'they can remain positive for up to 12 weeks.'
Oh, and Biden now insists there's no federal solution to Covid. Loyal Church of Covid adherents are undoubtedly crestfallen ahead of midterms.
"At the end of the day, his fortunes are intertwined with COVID," Democratic strategist Joel Payne tells The Hill. "Joe Biden is president because of COVID, but Dems are struggling right now because of COVID. And until they can find someone to figure this out, people are going to be mad about COVID."
