‘State of the Union Is Disunity and Division’: AP Rips Biden Before Tuesday Speech

The centerpiece of the establishment media on Monday diagnosed President Biden’s state of the union as rife with “disunity and division.”

The following from breitbart.com.

🙶 One day before Biden is set to deliver the State of the Union Address, the Associated Press (AP) preempted his speech with an article describing the actual state of the country as one of “disunity, funk and peril.” The article slammed Biden for his leadership during a time when the nation’s “strength is being sharply tested from within — and now from afar.”

The outlet slammed Biden’s state of the union as weak, and not strong enough for Biden to declare it so, hinting he should not in Tuesday night’s speech.

“It’s a state of exhaustion from the pandemic,” the outlet stated. “It’s about feeling gouged at the grocery store and gas pump. It’s so low that some Americans, including prominent ones, are exalting Russian President Vladimir Putin in his attack on a democracy,” the article said, and drew comparisons with Jimmy Carter’s time in office, when Carter said the nation was in the midst of a ‘crisis of confidence.’

The AP pointed to polling and data to back up its diagnosis:

🙶 ● Only 29% of Americans think the nation is on the right track, according to the February poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

● In December’s AP-NORC poll, most said economic conditions are poor and inflation has hit them on food and gas.

● Most Americans are vaccinated against COVID-19, but debates over masks and mandates have torn apart communities and families.

● Consumer prices over the past 12 months jumped 7.5%, the highest since 1982, as many pay raises were swallowed up.

● Measures of happiness have hit a bottom, with fewer Americans saying they are very happy in the 2021 General Social Survey than ever before in five decades of asking them.

There are other terrible metrics for Biden, which speak to the challenges his party will face come the November midterms:

● Fifty-six percent say Biden’s first year in office was a failure, according to NPR polling.

● Fifty-eight percent say Biden’s America is worse off than they were one year ago, according to Fox News polling.

● Another fifty percent believe they have less money in their pockets, a Fox News poll showed.

🙶 In Biden’s first year as president, inflation has increased to a 40-year-high. Supply chain woes have continued. More than two million migrants have been apprehended at the southern border. Gas prices have risen by $1.00 since last year. Fentanyl has become the greatest killer among 18-45-year-olds. Weekly wages have tanked. And the deadly Afghan withdrawal deeply embarrassed the nation.

Meanwhile, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced on Friday it was dropping indoor mask mandates, just in time for President Biden’s State of the Union Address on Tuesday.

Despite no change in the science of coronavirus transmission, senators, representatives, and those in the gallery will no longer be required to wear a mask. The mask requirement being dropped just days before Biden’s speech reportedly coincides with his strategy to suggest he has once again defeated coronavirus.

The AP saying the state of the union is "disunity and division" is the understatement of the century. But even that is way too mild. The disunity and division is from an illegitimate coup that has forced the country down a path of total destruction. We are not angry because of some minor little disagreements. The left is actively trying to destroy the greatest country ever, with most of the media and many so-called lawmakers with them.

Biden must know he lost through cheating but he is not man enough to admit it, resign and save the country. He will continue to do what Obama tells him. No sane person in America will watch this buffon stumble through a speech filled with lies and deception. The stolen election is destroying America and has destabilized the world. Joe Biden has lived off the largesse of the US taxpayer his entire life. He is in fact a government welfare bum and a wealth one.

Obama - Creating His Own Reality On Jobs Bill

AP Blasts Obama Over Jobs Pitch:
He's Creating His Own 'Reality'
The Blaze - Washington AP - In President Barack Obama’s sales pitch for his jobs bill, there are two versions of reality: The one in his speeches and the one actually unfolding in Washington.

When Obama accuses Republicans of standing in the way of his nearly $450 billion plan, he ignores the fact that his own party has struggled to unite behind the proposal.

When the president says Republicans haven’t explained what they oppose in the plan, he skips over the fact that Republicans who control the House actually have done that in detail.

And when he calls on Congress to “pass this bill now,” he slides past the point that Democrats control the Senate and were never prepared to move immediately, given other priorities. Senators are expected to vote Tuesday on opening debate on the bill, a month after the president unveiled it with a call for its immediate passage.

To be sure, Obama is not the only one engaging in rhetorical excesses. But he is the president, and as such, his constant remarks on the bill draw the most attention and scrutiny.

The disconnect between what Obama says about his jobs bill and what stands as the political reality flow from his broader aim: to rally the public behind his cause and get Congress to act, or, if not, to pin blame on Republicans.

Blog author's comments - Whoever wrote, edited and printed that article is going to be fired. Obama will have none of this free thinking and reporting of truth within the MSM.

The problem is, there are enough unquestioning Sheeple who keep his approval rating hovering around 40%. No matter what he says or does they will vote for him.

I don't think the MSM will ever try to save themselves, even though they created him and propped up all the lies.

All things considered, it would be interesting if the House were to approve Obama's 'Jobs Bill.' When the economy still does not improve, who would he have to blame while campaigning for the 2012 election? He would continue with - all of our problems are the fault of the previous administration.
