Letter: Biden presidency is failure

By Tom Ryan, Vancouver

A new poll ranked Joe Biden as the worst president in the last 50 years. No kidding. Was it the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan? Or his foreign policy of helping Iran fund terrorism and wars in the Middle East? Or the fact that we’re involved in two proxy wars and teetering on World War III?

Was it his history as a pathological liar, including the deceptively titled Inflation Reduction Act that was actually a green energy program that accelerated inflation?

His lies about the efficacy of COVID vaccines, pardoning Hunter for his crimes and “the border is secure”?

Maybe it was his policies of allowing over 10 million people into our country illegally, his attempt to sacrifice women’s rights and protections by changing Title IX, demanding what type of car you may drive or appliance that you may own, or taxpayer-funded loan bailouts for rich college graduates but not for you.

But the biggest offense of all was his family’s, the media’s and his administration’s cover-up of his obvious mental decline.
