Letter: The Biden ‘catastrophe’: new jobs, low unemployment

Posted

To the editor:

Nikki Haley has called Trump, among other things, “unhinged,” but has said she will support him because Biden has been a “catastrophe.”

Friday, it was reported that the “catastrophe” has continued, with another 200,000 jobs created. 

Last week, the Dow Jones average rose to its highest level ever, over 40,000 points. Yikes, what a catastrophe.

Unemployment has been at or below 4 percent for 28 months, the best performance since the 1960s. Catastrophic.

Republican congressmen and women go home to their districts and brag about the economic opportunities created by programs that they voted against. Considering the catastrophic state of things, that is truly ironic.

The crisis at the border is the real catastrophe, propagated by Republicans who refuse to let President Biden do anything about it, because their presumptive nominee needs that crisis for his campaign. Re-electing the liar-in-chief is more important than addressing any crisis.

It has been said that people get the government they deserve. I hope that isn’t true, but I fear that it may be. I think I’ll vote for the Biden “catastrophe.”  After all, it isn’t just the man; it’s the team.
