>> A VERY BIG DAY.
♪ ♪
>> Trace: WELL, OUR NEXT GUEST
HAS A NEW COLUMN, GRADING
PRESIDENT BIDEN’S FIRST YEAR IN
OFFICE, CALLED "THE NOT SO BAD,
THE BAD, AND THE UGLY."
WELCOME TO YOU.
THAT’S ABOUT THE REPORT CARD UP
ON THE SCREEN IF WE CAN BECAUSE
IT APPEARS TO ME THAT
PRESIDENT BIDEN IS NOT GOING TO
MAKE THE LIST ANYTIME SOON.
THE ECONOMY INFLATION, COVID,
BORDER IMMIGRATION.
YOU KNOW THAT LITTLE NOTE THAT
TEACHERS AFTER RIGHT AT THE
BOTTOM OF THE REPORT CARD.
WHAT WOULD YOU NOTE SAY?
>> "NEEDS IMPROVEMENT AND NEEDS
TO APPLY HIMSELF MUCH MORE.
BECAUSE WITH ANY PRESIDENCY, IT
ALWAYS COMES DOWN TO BASIC
THINGS.
HOW’S THE ECONOMY DOING IN TERMS
OF SAFETY AND SECURITY, HOW IS
THE COUNTRY DOING ON THAT FRONT?
ARE YOU DELIVERING WHAT YOU RAN
ON?
ARE YOU EXECUTING IN TERMS OF
DOING A GOOD JOB FOR THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE?
BY ANY OBJECTIVE MEASURE, THE
PRESIDENT IS FAILING ON ALL
THESE FRONTS.
INFLATION IS AT A 40-YEAR HIGH.
THAT WAS THE STORY IN 2021.
NOW WE KNOW IT WAS AN TRANSITORY
OR IS IN TRANSITORY AS WE WERE
TOLD FOR MANY MONTHS.
IT IS LIKELY GOING TO BE WITH US
THROUGHOUT 2022.
A SOLID MAJORITY OF AMERICANS
BLAME MR. BIDEN FOR HIS HANDLING
OF INFLATION.
THE ADMINISTRATION, HERE’S THE
EXECUTION PART, TRAYS.
THE SOLUTION IS TO SPEND
TRILLIONS MORE THROUGH BUILD
BACK BETTER BECAUSE THEY SAY IT
WILL SOMEHOW LOWER INFLATION AND
LOWER THE DEFICIT.
IT IS ENOUGH TO MAKE YOUR HAIR
HURT.
>> Trace: THE REPORT CARD FROM
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IS NOT
EXACTLY STELLAR.
YOU LOOK AT THESE POLLS.
THIS REALLY IS THE AMERICAN
REPORT CARD.
AT THE AVERAGE YOU PUT THEM ON
THE SCREEN, HIS APPROVAL AT 43%
DISAPPROVAL 53%.
JUST IN ONE YEAR, THAT IS OUT
30-POINT NEGATIVE SWING FOR THE
PRESIDENT.
THAT IS FAIRLY STUNNING.
IT HASN’T HAPPENED SINCE
WORLD WAR II TO ANY PRESIDENT.
>> YOU LOOK AT THOSE NUMBERS AND
SAY 43%.
THAT IS NOT HORRIBLE.
IT IS NOT WHAT I PRESIDENT WOULD
WANT OBVIOUSLY APPEARED WHEN YOU
CAME IN AND THE HIGH 50s AND
YOU WERE ALREADY DOWN TO THIS
NUMBER OH 43 AND JUST ONE YEAR
AND SHIFT UP IN TERMS OF
DISAPPROVAL, THAT IS VERY
ALARMING I’M SURE FOR THIS
ADMINISTRATION.
WE ALSO NOW LIVE IN A MORE
EXPENSIVE COUNTRY.
WE TALK ABOUT THAT.
ARE WE LESS SAFE?
WE SAW THE REPORT FROM CHICAGO
EARLIER IN THE HORRIFIC NUMBERS
WE ARE SEEING OUT OF THERE.
IT IS SO INDICATIVE OF SO MANY
CITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
16 CITIES ALL RUN BY DEMOCRATIC
MAYORS BY THE WAY.
SET HOMICIDE RECORDS IN 2021.
THE OTHER PRESIDENT OR
VICE PRESIDENT FOR MERCK
DISTRICT GENERAL ATTORNEY.
THE BEGINNING OF 2021 IS REFUND
OF THE POLICE IN 2022.
THIS WILL ABSOLUTELY BE
IMPORTANT IN THE MIDTERMS.
THAT’S NOT GOOD NEWS FOR THE
PRESIDENT OF THE BLUE TEAM.
>> Trace: YOU CAN ONLY WONDER
WHAT THE NUMBERS WOULD BE IF THE
MEDIA WAS FULLY COVERING THE
CRIME CRISIS IN THE BORDER
CRISIS.
THOSE NUMBERS ONE WOULD ASSUME
MIGHT DIP DOWN EVEN LOWER.
>> ONE WOULD THINK.
NUMBERS ARE TOUGH TO TALK ABOUT
IN CABLE NEWS BECAUSE YOU THROW
OUT A NUMBER LIKE I’M ABOUT TO.
AT 2.2 MILLION PEOPLE WILL HAVE
CROSSED THE BORDER ILLEGALLY
THIS YEAR INTO TEXAS INTO
ARIZONA ALL THOSE SOUTHERN
STATES.
YOU SAY WHAT IS 2.2 MILLION
EXACTLY?
LET’S PUT IT THIS WAY.
YOU TAKE THE TOTAL POPULATION OF
DENVER OR BOSTON OR
WASHINGTON, D.C., AND TRIPLE
THAT NUMBER, MULTIPLIED BY
THREE.
THAT IS WHAT 2.2 MILLION.
THAT’S WHAT WE HAVE AGAIN.
EXECUTION.
WE HAVE AN ABSENTEE LANDLORD AND
THE WHITE HOUSE IN JOE BIDEN AND
KAMALA HARRIS HE WAS PUT IN
CHARGE OF THIS OF COURSE.
THEY ARE USING THAT HEAD IN THE
SAND APPROACH AND HOPE THE
PROBLEM WILL GO AWAY.
BY THE MEDIA NOT COVERING IT,
MAYBE THEY WILL GET THEIR WISH.
WE SEE THE IMAGES ON OUR SCREEN
ON FOX EVERY DAY AND OTHER
OUTLETS THAT ARE DOING THEIR
JOB.
IT IS FEW AND FAR BETWEEN.
THEY ARE PULLING IN THE 20s IN
TERMS OF THEIR HANDLING OF THE
BORDER AND IMMIGRATION.
THOSE ARE NUMBERS THAT YOU DO
NOT WANT AN ELECTION YEAR.
