Joe Biden’s Budget Chicanery
Last week, explains James Freeman in the WSJ, voters in Ohioans sent establishment Democrats a message of their dissatisfaction.
Paul Krugman of the New York Times gives the citizens of the Buckeye State a good scolding for not voting as he instructs. Specifically, he’s annoyed by Ohio’s recent reluctance to elect Democrats.
Like so many leftists, Mr. Krugman seems to appreciate democracy as long as the participants are discouraged from making their own independent judgments.
Why Ohioans Reject Biden’s Policies
James Freeman goes out on a limb, albeit humbly, by predicting that Ohioans will reject Mr. Krugman’s instructions.
After all, he is the country’s pre-eminent advocate for deceiving the public about the cost of federal programs. He specifically applauded the “budget chicanery” that enabled the Biden spending binge and helped ignite the resulting inflation.
Why Listen to Stubborn Voters
Mr. Krugman now opines on “working-class voters in Ohio and elsewhere.” He complains that “if you look at some of today’s polling, it appears that they refuse to give President Biden credit for policies that actually do help workers.”
