As Joe Biden's presidency comes to an end, it's clear his tenure has been one of the most disastrous in modern American history. From foreign policy blunders to economic failures, Biden's administration has left the country weaker, more divided, and less secure. Here are seven key reasons why his presidency will be remembered as a failure.
1. The Afghanistan Debacle
Biden’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan was a humiliating disaster that left Americans stranded, abandoned our allies, and emboldened our enemies. The chaotic exit handed the Taliban complete control, squandered decades of sacrifice, and signaled weakness to the world. This reckless retreat led to the tragic deaths of 13 American service members and left billions of dollars in U.S. military equipment in enemy hands.
2. The Border Crisis He Created
Under Biden’s watch, the southern border became a national security catastrophe. His open-border policies encouraged record numbers of illegal immigrants to flood into the country, overwhelming law enforcement and communities nationwide. Criminal cartels exploited Biden’s lax enforcement, trafficking drugs and human beings across the border with little resistance. Meanwhile, hardworking Americans faced the consequences of increased crime and strained public resources.
3. The Inflation Explosion
Biden's reckless spending fueled the worst inflation crisis in decades, crushing middle-class families with skyrocketing prices on everything from groceries to gas. Despite Democrats’ promises, wages failed to keep up, and Americans were forced to dig deeper into their wallets just to make ends meet. Biden’s economic policies punished small businesses and discouraged economic growth, all while pushing a radical climate agenda that drove energy costs through the roof.
4. Plummeting Public Confidence
Biden’s approval ratings tanked as Americans lost confidence in his leadership. His failure to inspire, combined with his frequent gaffes and visible cognitive decline, raised serious concerns about his ability to lead the nation. Even his own party distanced itself from him as his approval ratings hit historic lows. Instead of taking responsibility, Biden and his handlers repeatedly blamed others—whether it was "MAGA Republicans" or the previous administration.
5. Soft-on-Crime Policies
Biden’s administration embraced the radical left’s soft-on-crime policies, which led to surging crime rates across America’s cities. His support for bail reform and leniency for violent offenders left communities in fear while law enforcement officers were vilified and demoralized. The result? A sharp increase in violent crimes, smash-and-grab robberies, and lawlessness that destroyed businesses and lives.
6. Weakness on the World Stage
Biden’s foreign policy failures emboldened America’s adversaries, from China to Russia to Iran. His disastrous handling of the Ukraine crisis and his administration’s appeasement of hostile regimes made the U.S. look weak and indecisive. Under Biden’s watch, American influence declined, and our enemies grew bolder, knowing they faced little pushback from an administration focused more on climate deals than national security.
7. Broken Promises and Radical Policies
Biden campaigned as a moderate but governed as a puppet of the radical left. His administration prioritized woke social policies, pushing divisive rhetoric on race and gender while neglecting real issues facing everyday Americans. Whether it was pushing for student loan forgiveness at the expense of taxpayers or weaponizing government agencies against political opponents, Biden's presidency was a bait-and-switch that betrayed the American people.
Joe Biden’s presidency has been a disaster on nearly every front. His failures in leadership, policy, and basic governance have left the country more vulnerable, economically strained, and politically divided. As he exits office, Americans are left to clean up the mess and reclaim the greatness that his administration squandered.
