Buried beneath Biden’s terrible debate performance are even worse tax plans
President Joe Biden‘s slack-jawed, rasping, floundering, and all-around incoherent dumpster fire debate performance has drowned out any iota of substance from the news cycle in the aftermath. Not even barbs about former President Donald Trump‘s pending criminal sentencing or whether the soon-to-be 2024 Republican nominee once had sex with a porn star have penetrated the headlines, which remain solely obsessed with the senility of our sitting president.
It’s the decrepitude and dotage that Biden staffers have carefully concealed by cordoning him off from public view between sundown and sunrise. But it’s a palpable and precipitous mental decline that has consumed the Democratic Party in a panic, our allies abroad in grave concern, and Americans across the spectrum in outrage that the commander in chief has been asleep at the wheel.
All of this is to say that given the successful distraction of Biden’s catastrophic “style” in stumbling through the debate, much less attention has been paid to the dismal substance of his answers. Considering that Biden’s 90-minute meltdown on June 27 effectively began when he stammered only to brag outlandishly that “we finally beat Medicare” in response to queries about his fiscal policies, it’s worth examining just how terrible Biden’s tax and spending plans were when he actually managed to explicate them.
Core to the Democratic Party’s overall platform is the delusion people can have their cake and eat it, too. Biden laid into Trump for cutting taxes with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, but he also promised to extend all the tax cuts that apply to households earning under $400,000. While Biden promised to “fix the tax system,” he didn’t explain his current tax proposal, instead attacking a straw man.
