Rep. Gym Jordan Criticizes Biden for Going to… the Same Exact Meetings Trump Attended

Jim Jordan is most famously known as the guy who yells in short choppy sentences at any Democrat who dares to oppose Trump. We won’t even talk about the fact that Jordan can’t find a suit coat that fits. We will also mention that Jordan has to be one of the most comprehensive hypocrites in Congress and that is a damned impressive title.

Apparently, Jordan understands that most of the MAGAs aren’t really paying attention to details or Jordan might look a bit like an idiot. Jordan wants the American people to believe that it is just awful that Biden is currently attending the G7 meetings along with trying to patch things up with our allies in NATO. It is important for Biden to attend these meetings because they are essential to the United States’ stability and security, but also because someone has to go over and clean up after Trump.

Biden is getting a lot of good press because he’s Joe Biden and he’s really not Donald Trump. Jordan and the MAGAs cannot have that, Biden is already too popular in the United States, now he’s going out into the world? It is bad enough that Jordan has to characterize the situation on the border as “raging” to make Biden look bad for leaving the country to attend… those same meetings that Trump attended while there was a lot of trouble along the United States border. According to Business Insider:

“While President Biden pals around with his buddies in Europe, the border crisis rages at home,” Jordan, a conservative lawmaker and staunch ally of former President Donald Trump, wrote on Twitter. This, despite Biden attending the same diplomatic summits that Trump did during his single term in office.”

Maybe it’s just us, but that trip doesn’t sound nearly as bad as obsessing 20 hours a day about one’s own lost election, while the country had the worst month in the entire COVID disaster. We are still angry that the White House and top federal officials did nothing, nothing, about COVID as soon as the election was over, right on through January 20th.

The situation on the border is bad. It has been bad for five years. Any president that followed Trump would be greeted by waves of immigrants, it was as predictable as Trump’s rage. But the situation on the border is no better or worse than A) Expected, B) Due to Trump’s actions, and C) It will be here when Biden gets back, and would be if he stayed.

And yet:

And:

Republicans, who have decried the increase in unauthorized border crossings since Biden took office, have used immigration issues as a rallying cry against the president for months.

Yes, months. And it will be used for years. As we said, the hypocrisy is pretty comprehensive, and Jordan speaks in simple choppy hypocrisy.
