America has a serious problem. The Problem resides in Delaware but will be spending the next 3 years and a few months in Washington DC, where even though he is a serious problem he somehow managed to get elected President. Every president is a problem to somebody, because administrations policies usually help some group or groups and adversely affect others. So far the problems  policies have confused most of the nation, on the subject of CO Vid 19, they’ve angered the energy industry and it’s workers, as the problem began an offensive away from fossil fuels, just months after President Trump declared America energy  independent.

The problem quickly ended the Keystone Pipeline project, and was amazed months later that gas prices have been skyrocketing on his watch. What did the  problem do--reassess what we need to bring back our energy independence. Nope. He declared America will stop making and selling fossil fuel powered vehicles by 2030, but in the meantime the problem urged OPEC to boost production to bring the price down. That's not likely to happen, as OPEC should never be confused with the United Way, The Make A Wish Foundation or any other good charity.

The problem’s immigration policy, is just this side of chartering Southwest planes to bring anyone who wants in--to get in for free.T he problem should know that the lack of a fair but firm immigration policy is a problem for  his constituents in the southwest, where the Problem’s  letting anyone into the county, regardless of their status. Some may be refugees, some may be criminals, some may just be looking to make better money in the estados unidos, then they’ve been making in Mexico or Honduras or wherever they used to call home, I know, we’re a nation of immigrants, but when Emma Lazarus wrote about the huddled masses yearning to breathe free in 1883, she didn’t factor in the cost  welfare benefits, driver license id cards and the illicit narcotics trade’s infiltration of the U-S..another word a wave of new criminal guest workers. The problem also hasn’t got any points for his economic prowess, inflation is here, co vid shutdowns may turn it south again, and what has the problem done? Manage to come with the democrats 3 trillion dollar Santa list which does provide some money for American Highways, but ear marks the rest for things like preschool and abortion mills in foreign countries and other really non necessary programs.

Until last week, as President, the problem had made some dumb mistakes as I’ve alluded too. But he didn’t become a problem until he decided to end America’s 20 year military presence in Afghanistan in about 20 minutes,

To say the plan was not well thought out is an understatement, Opening a line of SnowMobile Dealerships in Miami would be better thought out.

Chicago Food Banks and Churches passing out AR 15’s to young people over the holidays would be better thought out,

The problem, apparently working on his legacy like the rest of us do a crossword puzzle wants to be The President who got us out of Afghanistan, even though he was on the team that escalated the U-S Presence there,

After 9-11, then President Bush deployed troops to Afghanistan with a very direct mission. Find Bin Laden, architect of the 9-11 attacks, and kill him if possible and while you’re there kick some Taliban butt, so they stop leaving the light on for Al Queda and other muslim militants who hate America,

In about two months we neutralized the Taliban who asked for a peace treaty. We didn’t bomb them back to the stone age..that's about where they live. By 2011 Bin Laden was out of the terror business on account of death. His followers were gone too---so Obama should have declared game over---US wins and brought the troops and equipment home. But no, once again our government decided to go the nation building route...more at www.edcranescorner.com/blog-page/
