We are in the final days of the Biden administration and the time for President Joe Biden to leave the Oval Office cannot come soon enough.

When he ran for president in 2020, Biden was portrayed by the media as a fun and nice guy, good ol’ Joe. He was considered “decent” and often spoke of the concept of “restoring America’s soul.”

This was, of course, a myth. Many would lie.

Biden has never been decent and really has no ground to stand on when it comes to lecturing others about the concept.

He is, and always has been, a mean bully. This was reinforced during his time in the White House, where he cruelly abused his power and severely punished those who stood in the way of his agenda.

Who could forget when Biden took to the microphone and declared that millions of Americans would be forced into the unemployment line if they refused to take an experimental, often harmful and unproven COVID vaccine. Then, despite framing by his friends in the left-wing media, more Americans died of the disease under Biden’s watch than the previous administration.

Or how about when he checked the clock at Dover Air Force Base as the remains of murdered Americans returned from Afghanistan, a result of his disastrous and chaotic withdrawal from the country.

But the hurt and callousness don’t end there. Working with Democrats on Capitol Hill, Biden destroyed the family economy with reckless government spending. This led to historic inflation and an affordability crisis not seen in 40 years. Families’ savings accounts were raided, destroying goals for their futures and the American dream of home ownership.

“If a working-class mom who works as a lawyer can’t buy a $2 pepper because it’s now $5, imagine that mom living on food stamps. Imagine that mom making minimum wage trying to feed her kids,” one woman said in Pennsylvania to NBC News last year. “They’re killing us without killing us, if you understand that. They’re killing us without telling us they’re killing us. They’re hurting people in ways they can’t help themselves. It’s either feeding my children, and I don’t eat, but I have to go to work…It hits me hard.”

“I blame the federal government at this point,” she continued.

On the global stage, Biden’s weakness led to an invasion of Ukraine by Russia, where millions have been killed. His encouragement of Iran led to one of the worst Islamic terrorist attacks in history, the assassination of Americans. Americans taken hostage by Iran-backed Hamas still languish in the dark tunnels of the Gaza Strip.

Back home, Biden destroyed American sovereignty by knowingly allowing countless violent illegal aliens into the country, sacrificing the lives of young women like Laken Riley and Jocelyn Nungaray—both murdered in hideous ways—for sick and treasonous political ends.

And finally, Biden, the “upstanding family man” was a facade. Biden ignored the existence of his seventh grandchild for four years. He instructed White House staff to pretend the girl didn’t exist and insisted his press secretary avoid questions about why the Biden family refused to recognize her. First Lady Jill Biden hung Christmas stockings at the White House for the accepted grandchildren and the dog, but not Navy Jones. Worse, Biden let his son Hunter be a deadbeat dad who refused to pay child support.

It is not decent. It’s disgusting.
