Joe Biden has found a way to unify the country without even trying. Pretty much everybody who doesn’t have a college loan thinks Biden’s plan to pay off students’ college debt is an idiotic idea.
Word is Biden’s wife Jill, and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen pleaded with him not to do it, but reports say he listened to Kamala Harris instead. Of all the days the Vice President chose to come to work, it was a day where she got the ear of her elderly boss and swayed him somehow to make a financial mess that would take decades to fix.
Suppose Biden had chosen to ignore Harris and instead listen to intelligent and enlightened insiders, like Bill Clinton’s former advert Paul Begala. In that case, he could have received an econ lesson that would have pointed out what a blunder this would be.
Begala was a guest on CNN’s “State of the Union” and explained why Biden bowing down to the progressives was such a horrible decision.
“Well it’s bad policy as well as bad politics. For that amount of money, you could fund free pre-K for every 3 and 4-year-old for 10 years. You can do a lot more good for poor people, communities of color and the underprivileged by doing pre-K. You could forgive all medical debt, which unlike student debt is not freely entered into.”
Biden is so short-sided that he failed to realize that his decision could hurt the chances for Democratic Senators and Representatives to be elected this fall.
Scott Jennings is a political commentator who said this on CNN about the clown show surrounding Biden and his woke enablers.
“He’s riding a parade float down Pennsylvania Avenue just tossing money out the window here. And it’s totally lawless; it’s completely unconstitutional; it completely is in violation of our norm. You got a president in, with no agreement from Congress spending up to half a trillion dollars. This is a massive, massive thing. And it’s unprecedented.”
