The American Spectator | USA News and Politics “By every metric, America has arguably the worst president of the television era residing in the Oval Office (at least when he isn’t in Delaware).” So asserts Hill columnist Joe Concha in his new book, Come on, Man!: The Truth About Joe Biden’s Terrible, Horrible, No-Good, Very Bad Presidency. He makes his case by citing the Biden administration’s 40-year-high inflation rate along with record-high gas prices, skyrocketing crime, illegal border crossings, and an “extremist education agenda.”
"Concha believes that these horrible statistics are the result of a progressive program and that President Joe Biden’s gaffe-laden footprint is just part of the plan: “Biden may seem like a doddering idiot, stumbling from one mistake to the next, but it is funny how these mistakes always hew closely to liberal dreams for American policy.” Despite its title, Come On, Man! is less focused on Biden than on the political environment that spawned his presidency. Concha makes the well-trodden argument that Biden, who had a track record of incompetency and dishonesty, starting with the plagiarism scandal that derailed his 1988 run at the White House, would never have become president under ordinary circumstances. The 2020 presidential election, with the Democratic Party and the liberal media laser focused on extricating then-President Donald Trump from the Oval Office, provided the extraordinary circumstances that enabled Scranton’s native son to unseat his predecessor. ".
"Concha is critical of key members of Biden’s senior leadership team, arguing that some of them were selected based on their political leaning as opposed to their professional experience. In the chapter appropriately dubbed “We Were Promised Adults in Charge,” Concha takes issue with the appointment of former Michigan governor and CNN analyst Jennifer Granholm as secretary of energy. He references a now infamous interview where she responded to a question from Tom Keene of Bloomberg about her plan to increase oil production in the U.S. by saying, “That is hilarious! Would that I had the magic wand!” He also finds fault with Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas for “insisting that the border is closed” while also pointing the finger at the Trump administration for the surge in illegal migrants, which under Biden’s watch is forecasted to exceed four million by the end of 2022.
