By Jeff Davidson,
Joe Biden represents the worst president and worst administration in the last 76 years, starting from the time that Truman was elected in 1948.
The damage that the Biden administration has done to our nation and in many respects to the world is incalculable. Let’s take a walk through just a handful of the various domains in which Biden has created havoc with an eye on what it would take to reverse it.
Education and the Welfare of Young Children
This area is perhaps the most insidious of all Biden’s maneuvers. His demented and incompetent Secretary of Education, Miguel Cardona, has championed wokesters and their policies in education throughout the nation. He is singlehandedly trying to decimate women’s sports by allowing transgender people to compete at the highest levels against lifelong biological females.
The indoctrination of young children in elementary schools is most troubling as it could take a generation or more before large percentages of them ever come to their senses. They are taught to hate America, to hate themselves, to question their gender, to accept Critical Race Theory, and to engage in identity politics (even before they understand what identity politics is). There is no clear solution to the damage done here. Resolution will take a least a decade, probably two.
Cardona’s reign does help to bolster the view that the Department of Education should be totally dismantled. There is no need for it or for the decades of destruction it has wrought on American education.
The Border and Immigration Crisis
The damage wrought by the Biden administration is incalculable. Biden as turned the southern border situation into a ticking time bomb. Nine million line jumpers are in the country now, among them all types of terrorists from the Middle East, soldiers from China, Russian operatives, and Latin American and South American cartel members.
Joe Biden’s administration has no idea who is in the country and continues to support our being flooded on a daily basis. The potential for terrorism is high. A strong president, elected in 2024, can help enormously, but rooting out those who are already here will be a monumental job.
Inflation and Economic Squeeze on the Middle Class
With someone who knows anything about economic policy and how to assist vast amounts of our population to regain the spending power that they had say under President Trump, the situation could improve rapidly.
Wages eventually could catch up to the inflation that Biden has brought. Savings could start to improve. Credit card and personal debt could start to fall. A competent Secretary of the Treasury could help considerably. There is hope on this issue.
International Relations and World Peace
Biden has created foreign policy blunders of a catastrophic nature. We are disrespected around the world. The leaders in Russia, China, and elsewhere do not fear Biden and his administration in the least. Combined with a weakened military, we are ripe for attack; the 20+ attacks on U.S. installations in the Middle East by Iranians or Iranian proxies is testament to this.
A strong leader can rebuild our military within a couple of years. International relations can be improved with a strong leader as well. We have hope here, however, we don’t know what steps China, Russia, and Iran will take in the foreseeable future. China is likely to invade Taiwan. Russia and China will continue to support regimes that hate us. Iran must be handcuffed and it’s not going to happen under this administration.

Weaponization of Federal Agencies
This didn’t start with Biden. Obama set this in motion. The Department of Justice, the FBI, the State Department, and numerous other agencies must be cleansed from the top down. In addition, those who have broken the law must be held accountable, unlike what has happened in the last 10 years.
The American public’s faith in our federal institutions and agencies is declining with each passing week. A strong leader, who appoints the right cabinet members, can make a huge difference, and so, there’s hope in this area.
Energy Independence
Biden has reversed the gains that the Trump administration was able to make. We were an energy independent nation. Now we go with hat in hand to energy producers around the world, many of whom don’t like us at all, and our required to be beholden to them.
Restoring the policies that Trump initiated, on the part of a newly elected Republican president, will make a huge difference and the effects will be felt almost immediately.
Corporate Investment in America
Donald Trump was able to induce numerous corporations to relocate back to the States. In doing so, he helped to create meaningful, good-paying jobs and pride in a manual American manufacturing. Under Biden, consumer confidence has dropped to the point where people are afraid to make a move. No one knows what’s coming down the pike because of the erratic nature of Biden’s economic policies.
Here again, a strong Republican leader can make a huge difference here, and perhaps reverse the damage within a handful of years.
