As demonstrated by the party\u2019s destructive callousness towards children, the elderly, and the poor during their Covid lockdown frenzy, Democrats care about none of these real-world results of their policies. But they do care about polling, and Joe Biden\u2019s is abysmal. <\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/epolls\/other\/president_trump_job_approval-6179.html\">even heavily politicized<\/a> polls, Biden is at least performing as badly as Donald Trump. Biden is between the third- and fifth-most ratings-underwater president ever in American history at this point in his first term. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Biden of course also has the advantage of a wildly favorable press and social media monopoly while Trump had the strong headwind of a wildly negative one. That factor obscured for a great many of American voters actions that <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/03\/09\/we-knew-before-he-took-office-that-joe-biden-would-set-foreign-policy-on-fire\/\">easily demonstrated<\/a> long before his election that Biden was unfit for the presidency.<\/p>\n<p>Now that he\u2019s president, however, and very publicly bungling essentially every major issue all the way up to U.S. national security, Biden\u2019s weakness and incompetence have been impossible for the corrupt media to entirely cover up. Biden\u2019s appalling withdrawal from Afghanistan may have been <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/08\/19\/new-poll-from-the-federalist-susquehanna-shows-joe-bidens-approval-nose-diving-following-botched-afghanistan-withdrawal\/\">the first major blow<\/a> to public confidence in his governing ability, and it\u2019s been followed by <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/01\/20\/a-scandal-for-every-month-the-biggest-botches-failures-and-mess-ups-of-joe-bidens-first-12-months-in-office\/\">blow after blow<\/a>: the repercussions of ending U.S. energy independence, historic inflation caused by massive government spending, aggression by America\u2019s foreign foes, a tacitly open border with human trafficking of historic proportions, not to mention fueling America\u2019s legalized mass killings of unborn infants and forcing schools to inflict gender dysphoria on the children in their care.<\/p>\n<p>So yes, the polls look bad. That\u2019s why Democrat officials suddenly switched away from their Covid mania, lifting mask mandates in blue states, ending the daily <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=t6kmm70ji5c\">falsified <\/a>\u201cbody counts\u201d on TVs and newspapers, and jumping immediately into European war hysteria. But that\u2019s not been enough to turn those polls around. Historic indicators presently suggest a \u201cred wave\u201d in the upcoming midterms. <\/p>\n<p>That brings us to The New York Times\u2019s recent \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/01\/11\/the-people-who-brutalized-children-to-grab-emergency-powers-are-not-experts-theyre-evil\/\">limited hangout<\/a>\u201c: its highly suspicious, very late <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/03\/21\/the-new-york-times-doesnt-care-if-you-know-that-big-tech-helped-rig-joe-bidens-election\/\">acknowledgment <\/a>that, hey, that laptop containing evidence that Joe Biden is just as corrupt as his son Hunter Biden told Russian prostitutes \u2014 that laptop is real, and so is its data. Yes, the United States\u2019s top foreign adversaries likely have blackmail material on the U.S. president, and likely paid him some very big bribes. <\/p>\n<p>Oh, and yes Twitter and Facebook <em>did <\/em>use their global communications monopolies to rig the election for Joe Biden by hiding this information (and who knows what else).<\/p>\n<p>Why would The New York Times do this \u2014 and Facebook and Twitter not ban this information release just like they did before? Well, one explanation is hierarchy reinforcement. As I wrote Monday, like forcing their \u201cminions\u201d to wear face masks, the ridiculously belated laptop confirmation also equals the ruling class \u201cflexing their power to say things they won\u2019t allow their political opponents to say.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s another explanation, though. It\u2019s that Joe Biden is no longer useful to the ruling class. After being used to win an election, he\u2019s now making it impossible for them to credibly foist on Americans the idea that his party could win another one with him on their masthead. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.charlesrkrouse.com\/blog\/the-last-battle-c-s-lewis\">donkey is showing through the lion skin<\/a>, and so they need a new donkey.<\/p>\n<p>So while it seems utterly legitimate to insist on accountability such as<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/03\/22\/the-hunter-biden-emails-warrant-a-special-counsel-to-probe-the-big-guy-joe-biden\/\"> appointing a special counsel<\/a> to investigate the Biden family\u2019s apparent corruption, that also could relieve the Democrat Party of their greatest liability. They\u2019d probably deeply appreciate that, in fact. Biden got the ruling class what they wanted, and they don\u2019t need him any more. Getting rid of him now would in fact be highly convenient for maintaining their power.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s only one problem with that. Kamala isn\u2019t at all going well for them either.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><\/figure>\n<p>Enjoy that bed you made for yourselves, Democrats. I hope it\u2019s at least as uncomfortable as that bed you\u2019ve made for all the Americans whose long-term outlook is more suffering, thanks to Democrats\u2019 criminal prioritization of power for themselves above all else.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<div class=\"article-author-description fst-italic\">\n  Joy Pullmann is executive editor of The Federalist, a happy wife, and the mother of six children. <a href=\"https:\/\/forms.gle\/iX1dsZnedpJjPMoP7\">Sign up here to get early access<\/a> to her next ebook, &#8220;101 Strategies For Living Well Amid Inflation.&#8221; Her bestselling ebook is &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/payhip.com\/b\/R1JL\">Classic Books for Young Children<\/a>.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Pullmann identifies as native American and gender natural.
