    I have a great deal of respect for commentator Victor Davis Hanson. His opinions are well written and concise.

    Here is his list of 11 ways Biden and his handlers are hell-bent on destroying America.

    1. Wipe out a 2,000-mile border.
    2. Run up $35 trillion in national debt.
    3. Appease or subsidize enemies like Iran and China.
    4. In a multiracial democracy, redefine identity only as one’s tribal affiliation.
    5. Recalibrate violent crime as understandable, cry-of-the-heart expressions of social justice.
    6. Emasculate the military by using non-meritocratic standards of race, gender, and sexual orientation to determine promotion and commendation.
    7. Reinvent the justice system to indict, bankrupt, convict, jail and eliminate political opponents.
    8. Encourage the fusion of the bureaucratic state with the electronic media to form a powerful force for political audit, surveillance, censorship and coercion.
    9. Make war on affordable gasoline and natural gas.
    10. Marry late, but preferably not at all.
    11. Turn world-class universities into indoctrination centers.

    For those who care about these issues, here is a link to Mr. Hanson's entire text.

    Mr Hanson is, of course, correct and I’m surprised the left doesn’t see the damage Biden is doing.

    I watch Fox and it’s always informative to listen to this really smart guy.

    Not being critical of Hansen in the least -- I too respect him greatly -- but he left off another important way: support a strong world government and destroy middle class capitalism through climate change actions. However, it is not just Biden to blame.

    The left supports the damage Biden is doing. I can remember comments from 20 years ago when the left was saying, “America is a racist country that has never had a positive history.” Therefore the fact that Biden is destroying the country fits in with their narrative.

    If you asked them what would please them, they would hard pressed to give you an answer. The reason is that some of them having not given enough thought to know what they do want. Others have their answer, but know that you would be turned off or horrified by it.

    Absolutely brilliant.

    The combined cost of the Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq comes to
    8 trillion dollars and 900,000 deaths according to the Costs of
    War Project at Brown University.

    Without that, we would be at 26.6 Trillion dollars rather than 34.6 Trillion
    dollars national debt we are actually at right now.

    I too am amazed at the people who support and defend and make excuses for Biden. Dare I say mental disease?

    And our current 858 Billion dollar 'defense' budget that does nothing
    for actual defense, like we can't afford to secure our southern border.

    Why Steve? Seriously, why? There is nothing that will pry you from Donny's rapture, despite his 4 indictments and 88 charges, not to mention the train wreck he left behind of our government.

    Indictments and charges aren't convictions; particularly those filed for political power. When Biden gets indicted for his illegal storage of classified material get back to us.

    If our policy is to allow unarmed civilians to walk into the country across our border, most of the Department of Defense and a lot of the Department of Homeland Security can be defunded.

    You're surprised?

    You're talking about the dumbest creatures on earth. These parasites BELIEVE humans can warm the planet by driving cars, criminals will obey gun laws, and that too many marines landing on a beach can capsize an island.

    They're DELIBERATELY ignorant. They reject information that compromises their programing.

    Biden, took documents and had them

    Trump, took documents and had them

    Neither trump nor Biden are being charged with any crime because of this.

    Biden, when asked for the documents back promptly gave them up to the appropriate authority's.

    trump, when asked for the documents back did not give them up to the appropriate authority's but instead tried to keep them.

    Biden is not being charged for keeping the documents because he gave them back when asked

    trump is being charged for keeping the documents because he did not gave them back when asked

    Biden: Domestically - we have more than 20 million immigrants, mainly illegals, this is a problem that could take years to fix.

    Monetarily - Joe may have destroyed the petrodollar and has damaged
    the reputation of the US by deciding to confiscate 300 billion dollars of
    Russian assets illegally.

    Wars both cost money and reputation. Joe's war in Ukraine - he did
    start it however much both parties pretend otherwise, and Joe wants
    a war with China despite our agreement with the One-China policy.

    And joe has sent 100 shipments of bombs and other weapons to
    Israel for use in Gaza despite the ICJ ruling.

    Money and Reputation are being destroyed by one idiot.

    This from people who think that 100+ yrs of spewing crap into the environment has no effect at all.

    I’m taking your response to mean you don’t disagree with Trump’s policies, you just hate the man.

    Trump returned boxes and boxes of documents when asked, within weeks. Trump had authority to keep locked up classified documents. Biden did not, and he did not keep his locked up. Biden wasn't charged because he is too feeble to stand trial.

    Did you hear about the democrat senator wannabe who blamed the earthquake in NJ on global warming? I’m not kidding.

    Wrong: He's not being prosecuted because the investigator felt Biden was not able to participate in his own defense. Read the report

    What policies? The 2020 GOP platform was non-existent!

    So what policies are you talking about?

    Xiden wasn't charged because the DC sociopath statists won't allow all that Ukrainian cash to stop flowing into their Delaware bank accounts.

    In 1963 during the Cold War our President JFK included in a speech concerning relations between the US and the USSR:

    Among the many traits the peoples of our two countries have in common, none is stronger than our mutual abhorrence of war. Almost unique among the major world powers, we have never been at war with each other.

    Joe Biden has now made a lie of that in our proxy war in Ukraine.
