In the latest act of desperation from the left, some are now attempting to make Joe Biden’s presidency even worse by comparing him to Donald Trump. Yes, you read that correctly. Racket News’ Matt Taibbi took note of this pitiful new strategy, revealing that some critics believe Biden should step aside, invoking the name of the very man they can’t seem to escape from since he left office.
It’s a shocking turn of events. One might wonder if this is a form of self-sabotage. Comparing Joe Biden, a man distinguished by confusion and gaffes, to Trump, who managed to energize millions with his straightforward approach to politics, is about as effective as a water gun at a gunfight. Yet, one has to give the Democrats credit for their ability to find creative solutions for their own problems, even if they often end up looking silly in the process.
The notion that Biden should step down because he’s been likened to Trump isn’t just nonsensical; it’s a clear cry for help from those who recognize the sinking ship that is the Biden administration. With inflation spiraling out of control, a border crisis in full effect, and crime rates rising, Democrats appear to be grasping at straws to save face. By drawing comparisons with Trump, they seem to forget that the former president was able to garner both respect and disdain for his brash style and America First agenda, something Biden has struggled and failed to recreate.

Critics are catching on to the irony of these comparisons. For years, the left has branded Trump with every derogatory label in the book, and now the best they can come up with is that Biden should bow out gracefully since he’s not living up to the Trump standard—instead of grappling with the fact that it’s actually their leadership that’s faltering. Perhaps this is less about protecting the integrity of the Democratic Party and more about figuring out a way to avoid the blame for the wreckage they’ve caused.
In the end, comparing any Democrat to Trump might just be the best way to highlight their failures. If anything, this attempt to make Biden look bad by association shows just how far some are willing to go to rewrite history. Whether it’s recognizing their own shortcomings or acknowledging the success of policies that actually worked, these comparisons may just end up solidifying Trump’s legacy while further diminishing Biden’s already shaky reputation.
