What Does President Biden Mean?

 The media is busy proclaiming Biden the winner.  The President hasn't yet conceded and he may yet pull out a victory in the counting, but it really isn't likely.  No court is going to order a new vote.  Only the state legislatures could change the outcome and they just don't have the courage to act.  Fraud seems to be coming out on top.

It's sad to think that corrupt people in Philadelphia and Michigan and Atlanta were able to fix the result.  It couldn't have happened if the result were not so close;  We will never know who actually won the election, although it is likely that it was President Trump.

But life goes on.  What will a Biden administration mean?   The first question we have to answer is whether or not the GOP holds the senate.  If one or both of the runoffs in Georgia go Republican (and I expect they both will) then Biden and the Dems will be blocked from passing some of their crazier items like packing the court, the Green New Deal and huge tax increases and restrictions on fossil fuels.  Still, Biden will still be able to carry out the dismantling of much of Trump's policies in foreign affairs and trade.  Biden will likely rejoin the Paris climate accords.  He may even try to rejoin the Iran JCPOA which guarantees a bomb to the mullahs in a few years.  He will pull back from Trump's super successful Middle East policies which brought peace between Israel and five Arab nations.  Biden will go back to the failed Obama policies.  Biden will also have to deal with North Korea, and that will likely not go well. Biden is cautious in foreign matters and the NKs don't respond well to that.  China basically owns Biden because of all the corrupt deals he made for Hunter and himself.  Our trade policy will collapse and the USA will go back to the Obama policy of exporting jobs to China.  In Europe, Biden will support the EU and will back away from the UK after Brexit.

Domestically, we will see the end of many of the immigration policies put in place by Trump.  The Mexicans will stop keeping illegals away from our borders.  Benefits will be extended by executive action to illegals and the lure will be back in place to draw millions from Central America here.

Taxes and energy policy will be modified depending on which Republican senators Biden can lure into bogus deals.  My candidate for most likely dupe is Mitt Romney.

All the race neutral policies Trump put in place will likely be withdrawn.  It won't change things for blacks, but it will make the white liberal Dems feel good about themselves.

It's going to be a long, long four years.

My guess is that by 2022, there will be a backlash that will give control of the House back to the Republicans and reinforce GOP control of the senate.  Hopefully in 2024, there will be a good GOP candidate who can retake the White House.

And I'm assuming that Biden serves his full term.  That's a big assumption.  A president Harris would be a much bigger disaster than Biden.
