The Biden administration has been having a rough start and is flailing about.
The failure of the Afghanistan withdrawal; the economy; inflation brought on by bad economic policy; oil and gas prices; the failure to pass his signature Build Back Better spending spree to further expand the debt and fundamentally reshape America and it's economy.
The failure to lead in Ukraine and green-lighting a Russian minor incursion and then walking that back.
The constant need for his publicists to explain that what Biden says in public is not actually Biden's policies.
An utter failure to "defeat" Covid 19, and more Americans dead from or with Covid under Biden than Trump, far more than the 200,000 that Biden indicated was a level at which a president should resign for being a failure.
Clear signs that Biden ain't all there mentally or physically.
On top of that, we get the January jobs report that 301,000 jobs were lost - not the expected 200,000 gain, and the prior December jobs report also got adjusted downwards to show a job loss. Funny howe that happens.
An approval level in the toilet and it's starting to swirl around the drain.
Impeding projected massive losses in the upcoming midterms
So what's a Democrat to do?
Anything to try and fire up their base and keep the support of their "progressive wing".
So, a push for Gun Control it is. Right on schedule.
After all, gun bans are still popular among the Democrats, especially amongst the more radical members whose support he needs.
It also helps distract from the defund the police fracas and Democrat Prosecutors' soft on crime non-prosecution of criminals measures while blaming inanimate objects and Republicans for the Democrat-caused crime wave.
Just like his sudden announcement that he's going to redouble his efforts to cure cancer on the day when the 300,000 lost jobs report came out, the gun control push is an attempt to distract attention from his and the Democrat's multiple and ongoing failures.
Funny how his announcement of his gun ban push repudiates the Democrats "Defund The Police" line that was one of the causes of this massive spike in the murder and violent crime rate:
"The answer is not to defund the police," he [Biden] continued. "It's to give you the tools, the training, the funding to be partners, to be protectors."Something tells me the Squad isn't going to be happy with that line repudiating their defund the police refrain. Nice to see the reality check that defunding and demoralizing the police, and having Democrat prosecutors not prosecute crimes leads to a crime wave that makes the Democrats look rather bad.
May his gun ban push end in yet another failure for this administration.
