RIP to Biden’s Gaza Pier As He Chalks Up Another Foreign Policy Disaster

  

Joe Biden has logged yet another foreign policy disaster under his belt after the Pentagon announced the “Gaza pier” will be dismantled due to damage. 

Some press reports describe the move as “temporary,” though it’s questionable whether the project will ever resume after being completely torn down and towed away. This marks the latest in a string of logistical issues involving the president’s prized pier.

For context, the pier has been in place for less than a month, and it’s already suffered multiple shutdowns related to moderate seas overtaking it. Here’s the full timeline illustrating just how absurd this idea was. 

That’s $320 million of taxpayer money essentially flushed down the drain, never mind the ongoing costs to maintain, dismantle, and ultimately tow away the pier. As boondoggles go, this was one of the books, but it’s hardly unusual under Biden’s leadership. 

We are talking about a president whose entire career has been marked with foreign policy failure after foreign policy failure. His record is so awful that Robert Gates, who served under Barack Obama, once described Biden as being “wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.” Ten years have passed since that statement, and nothing has changed except the mark is up to 50 years now.

Joe Biden is the Jim Carmer of politics. If he says something, you can take it to the bank that the opposite position is the correct one. That’s true even when he manages to appear to be on the right side of an issue, such as his stated support for Israel against Hamas. What’s he actually done? He’s rhetorically knee-capped the American ally, tried to withhold aid, built a ridiculous pier to feed terrorists, and empowered Hamas to remain in power. 

That there’s even a question of whether Americans will vote to continue adding to Biden’s record is mind-blowing. How many more examples are needed before he’s forced into retirement? I guess, we’ll find out, but in the meantime, more pain is no doubt coming.
