Joe Biden flew to Philadelphia to pitch Bidenomics as some kind of a successful effort.
But in the mess he's made of the world and the economy, it wasn't going to go over well.
As I noted earlier, we just saw the CPI go up again, although it is less than its highest point under Biden but still more than when Biden came into office. He's also making this kind of a pitch when his foreign policy is tanking as well, with his weakness and bad deals emboldening bad actors.
It started badly, with Biden seeming to be confused about what he was doing and where he was supposed to go.

Then it got worse when it was like a throwback to his multiple trips falling up into Air Force One. He tripped and almost wiped out, just trying to get up a few steps to the stage.

Then he mugged for the tiny group there, which looked like it was union workers who were made to show up. He tried to make it look like it was funny. Pro-tip, Joe? It wasn't. It's not funny we don't have a coherent person in the commander-in-chief seat who can even navigate a few steps. Other countries are looking at this kind of stuff and it's emboldening bad actors, that we have such a weak and incoherent man at the switch.
Biden then delivered some remarks about Israel.
He said that he would "surge support" to the people of Gaza because most of them were not involved in the attack on Israel. Is he kidding? He already came under fire -- and rightfully so -- for making a deal with Iran that had involved the release of $6 billion that was being held. Now, he's going to funnel more things that could be held/sold to help Hamas' war effort. Hasn't he been paying any attention at all?
He said he also spoke for a little over an hour to the families of those Americans who had been kidnapped by Hamas. What is he doing to get people out? That's a problem we keep seeing when it comes to Joe Biden, be it Afghanistan or Gaza.
Biden then claimed that climate change was "the only existential threat to humanity."

Then he can't finish his sentence, "Our kids are gonna be and our grandkids are gonna be... anyway, I don't wanna even think about it..."
The "only" threat. Yes, let's just ignore real threats to humanity -- like nuclear weapons, wars, border invasions, terrorists, and Communism. Because they don't serve the political agenda as well. We have Americans held by terrorists right now, but he seems more fixated on the political agenda.
He said he came to office to face the "threat of climate" and "fundamentally change our economy."

Well, he certainly did fundamentally change the economy. I never saw someone tank the economy as fast as Biden did, in a way that has hurt so many Americans. He continued to tell some of the same falsehoods he has in the past about reducing the debt and the deficit.
Even as he just spoke about Israel, with hundreds massacred including Americans, with Americans being held hostage, Biden then crowed it was a "good year" because Philly had been doing well in baseball and football.

I think you mean "win the Super Bowl," Joe.
But who cares if the world is lit on fire? Certainly not Joe.
