Joe Biden delivered an incredibly poor State of the Union address, and it foreshadowed his potential presidential run in 2024. It also formed the foundation of his pitch for the next presidential election. Unfortunately, for Democrats, he was barely able to make a cogent argument.
It was clear that the president was not able to follow or read the majority of the speech. Some of his lines had clear mental errors, such as his reference to asking John Roberts, the chief justice of the Supreme Court, for a restraining order so that his wife, Jill would not go to the Super Bowl.
Throughout his speech, Biden delivered several fantastical stories and lies, and he was also criticized for labeling some Republicans as domestic terrorists. One of the individuals who took issue with Biden's claims was Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican from Georgia.
The speech was full of jokes about the oil and gas industry, and it was full of instances of anger. Biden also pushed a tax agenda that will punish businesses, and it brought a whole new meaning to the term "fugazi." The economy is back, and 12 million new jobs have been created under his leadership. However, it is shocking that the White House is now calculating the numbers after a Chinese spy balloon infiltrated US airspace.

During the speech, Greene took issue with the president's statement about the Chinese spy balloon. Before the State Of The Union, she held a white balloon that had the message "Just an innocent balloon." After the speech, she said that Biden was incapable of protecting the country's national interests.
In less than three minutes, she delivered an incredibly negative speech about the president and his administration. She claimed that either the president was flat-out lying or he didn't know what he was talking about.

One of the lies that Biden told during the speech was about the Republican plan to cut Medicare and Social Security. He also claimed that the non-compete contracts affecting cashiers at fast food restaurants were a part of the country's economic recession.
The White House also failed to address the issue of hidden hotel fees. This is the latest example of the incompetence of the administration. The balloon incident was just another example of how this administration has been unable to effectively address various crises.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders: "We are under attack in a left wing culture war we didn't start, and never wanted to fight. Every day we are told we must partake in their rituals, salute their flags, and worship their false idols…That's not normal. It's crazy, and it's wrong."
