Early Friday morning, I’m sitting with Stephen Kruiser at
our CPAC condo when the news breaks that Joe Biden has made his decision for
his affirmative action Supreme Court pick. There was very little shock that he
selected Kentaji Brown Jackson; she was widely considered to be the
frontrunner.
The announcement was expected to happen at the end of
February or the first week of March, but still, the announcement stunned me.
Did anyone tell Joe Biden that there’s a war going on?
There has been much speculation that the Ukraine/Russia
conflict, which is now a war, was Joe Biden’s “wag the dog” moment. His
approval ratings have never recovered from his botched withdrawal from
Afghanistan and have even gotten worse. But, if Biden—or let’s face it, his
advisors—thought that this Ukraine/Russia situation would get Biden out of his
rut, there was a gross miscalculation. Putin has played Biden like a drum, and
Biden’s past claims that Putin didn’t want him to be president sound like a bad
joke.
“Vladimir Putin doesn’t want me to be President,” Biden tweeted in Feb. 2020. “He doesn’t want me to be
our nominee. If you’re wondering why — it’s because I’m the only person in this
field who’s ever gone toe-to-toe with him.”
Fast forward to the present, when Joe Biden went from
thinking imposing sanctions on Russia would prevent Putin from invading
Ukraine to backtracking after the invasion began because they
clearly failed to accomplish what Biden said they would.
“If I were in Office, this deadly Ukraine situation would
never have happened,” Trump said Thursday. And he’s right. Biden has proven
himself to be the Putin puppet that the left claimed Trump would be, but Trump
would have never allowed this to happen the way Biden has.
So now there’s a war going on, and Joe Biden decides that
this is the time to name his Supreme Court pick?
Could he be more transparent?
So Biden’s foreign policy is an absolute dumpster fire. His ineffective leadership might lead us into World War III, and he’s trying to change the conversation to a Supreme Court nomination battle. Does he really think this will work? The end of the current Supreme Court term is months away, Biden should have put off this announcement to at least give the appearance of being focused on preventing WWIII, instead of trying to distract the public and galvanize his base with a Supreme Court nomination battle.
