I will give Ron Klain one recognition as he heads out, on this, his last day as Joe Biden’s White House Chief of Staff.
He’s been able to put up with Joe Biden far longer than any of us likely would have. He was Biden’s Chief of Staff when he was vice president as well for about the same amount of time and then went on to do a variety of things in the Obama/Democrat world including being the “Ebola Czar.”
I think it wasn’t accidental that his announcement about leaving came when the Biden classified document scandal became public. I think that probably was just too much and he didn’t want to have to cover for Joe anymore.
Jeff Zients — the guy who said that there was going to be a “winter of death” over COVID (and there wasn’t) — is taking over. He’s the guy that predicted a “winter of severe illness and death” in 2021 and came up with the “pandemic of the unvaccinated,” so they’re going from the frying pan into the fire.
This is what they celebrate as he leaves, despite their horrible actions that led to things like the crushing inflation, the border disaster, and the botched Afghanistan withdrawal that cost American lives and left Americans and allies behind.
Tough to say goodbye to this team and this President … but proud of what we did … and confident I am leaving things in good hands! https://t.co/9BDtJafgO7

But Klain’s farewell remarks are an instructive class in why this administration has been such a failure. His remarks were both hilarious and incredibly sad at the same time, that this is the “leadership” that we have had in the White House. The remarks are from last week, but Wednesday is his official last day.
Let’s hear Ron Klain talk about how incoherent and constantly lying Joe Biden’s team has been “solid as a rock,” as he tears up over a rock.

Listen as he says Biden was “written off for dead” multiple times, “It’s never a good bet to bet against Joe Biden.” Then he completely went over the edge, saying he learned everything about being a good father and a role model from Joe Biden.

Um, has he checked Ashley Biden’s diary or seen Joe Biden’s sniffing of women/girls problem? Exactly who would want to model themselves after that? Not to mention Hunter or the fantasyland of lies that springs from Joe Biden’s mind with all the fake stories he makes up to pump himself up. Does Ron Klain make up stories about his background and talking to dead train conductors like Joe Biden? Perhaps Ron Klain can tell us how his role model managed to sneak classified documents out from a SCIF when he was a Senator since he was found to have classified documents from his time in the Senate in his home? Not exactly the role model I’d want to be pointing to for my children.
As I’ve pointed out before, Klain is something of a fabricator, just like Biden, when he claims things like it was the “most successful first year ever.”
But these remarks explain a lot about why this team has been such a failure.
