Biden’s Concluding Speech: A Collection of Letters

Key Point: President Biden’s final address from the Oval Office on Wednesday.

Unlike any of his predecessors, President Biden facilitated oligarchic power by curtailing free speech, supporting Ukrainians with arms, and piling up national debt (“The bitter end of Biden presidency,” Editorial, Jan. 16).

His administration’s targeting of now-President-elect Donald Trump aimed to obstruct Trump’s return to candidacy.

Those pursuits drained countless millions without yielding tangible results.

This distraction led us away from the country’s numerous domestic issues, deepening societal divides and pushing us toward the edge of civil conflict.

Thanks for nothing, Joe.

Biden’s farewell address could be characterized as a detached and disordered summary of the past four years.

He appeared entirely disconnected from reality.

His repetitive assertion about “restoring the soul of America” is on the verge of realization.

This, however, is not due to his efforts but in spite of them.

Biden’s exit could not have come at a more fitting time.

Biden’s parting address was steeped in the cynicism and hypocrisy that marked his presidency.

He took this final chance to lecture us about the threats of misinformation while simultaneously criticizing Big Tech allies, some of which provided him favorable coverage during the 2020 election.

The president revealed himself as just another insincere public servant who benefited himself and his family at the expense of those he vowed to represent.

Regardless of how Biden attempts to frame it, he stands as the worst president in our nation’s history.

Biden addressed several critical topics in his concluding speech to the nation.

He emphasized the necessity for government to collaborate for the common good and highlighted that the wealthy must contribute their fair share of taxes like every American.

His tenure was marked by challenges, compounded by the pandemic and international conflicts.

He discussed the tentative agreement between Hamas and Israel, acknowledging the support from Trump’s incoming administration that facilitated negotiations.

After five decades of public service, we wish President Biden well and bid him an affectionate farewell.

Farewell!

Biden’s farewell address was self-serving and poorly presented.

It was a reflection of his leadership.

We are all better off without him.

Biden will undoubtedly be remembered as one of the nation’s least effective presidents.

The conclusion of the Biden administration couldn’t come soon enough. In his final remarks, Biden once again highlighted the tremendous failures of his presidency — making his exit all the more welcome.

The last four years could be summed up as an extended, painful experience comparable to a root canal performed by incompetent DEI advocates.

The silver lining is that the country has recognized that DEI is ineffective and that meritocracy must return.

Even though the accuracy of Miranda Devine’s critique of Biden’s farewell address is unquestionable, one lingering question remains (“Corrupt Biden’s shameful legacy,” Jan. 16).

Did anyone actually watch Biden?

Is there anyone out there who cares what he says?

Anthony Parks

No one writes better columns than Devine.

She perfectly captures Biden’s essence: He is the worst president ever.

He deserves all the criticism Devine has articulated and more.

Biden has been a source of embarrassment.

He tarnishes the presidency, our nation, and the integrity of politics in general.
