Senate Gun Bill in Trouble, Biden Leaves for Beach House

CLAY: There are reports that the gun bill that was much ballyhooed may be falling apart a bit over the language, ’cause we still haven’t seen the draft language in this bipartisan gun violence bill, whatever you want to call it. Also, I’ll just mention this: Joe Biden has already left for his beach house — 11 a.m. Eastern he left the White House to head away for the weekend. Remember, he didn’t get to the White House until 12:30 on Monday coming back from Delaware.

So he arrived halfway through the day on Monday. He left halfway through the day on Friday. Now, you can say the guy can work anywhere, and I understand that argument. But when you are the worst president in history, I think — modern history — isn’t it maybe the wrong signal to be sending that you’re showing up late for work at the White House on Monday and leaving early on Friday?

BUCK: Well, there’s also the part of me that says, “The guy’s almost 80. You know, if he wants to get some time on the beach and read a…” Are we allowed to read James Patterson novels again?

CLAY: Well, he’s apologized. Old white guy, but he’s apologized for saying things that are unacceptable about old white guys.

BUCK: I don’t want to begrudge Biden in his nearly 80th year spending some time at the beach with the family. He just shouldn’t be president while he’s doing this stuff. That’s the problem, right? You know, you want to spend the time with the fam at the beach. Biden should be long since retired and instead he is letting the country slip deeper into the economic abyss with each passing day. I just wish there were one person, Clay — we talk about this pretty frequently in recent weeks — in the administration point to say, “That person really seems squared away.”

CLAY: Just one.

BUCK: To be fair, for example, Larry Summers when he was treasure secretary — he’s a Democrat — is smart guy, though.

CLAY: Was one of the heralds of inflation that information going to come on the Democrat side? He said — he predicted perfectly — exactly where we were headed with inflation.

BUCK: There are some others. We’ve actually quoted him a few times ’cause he’s been saying Democrats are lucky they didn’t get the spending they wanted ’cause inflation would be even worse. But Rattner who was the auto czar under Obama. Again a Democrat, but understands how a business works and has some understanding of the market. The people we keep hearing from in this administration, I’m like, “So, are they just walking around the Wesleyan faculty lounge saying, ‘Who wants to explain macro-economic theory?’ when gas prices are through the roof?” ‘Cause it’s not going well.

CLAY: I don’t even think they analyzed any of the skillsets for the people that are in their administration. I think they just decided, “We have to have certain measures of cosmetic diversity,” and threw people into the cabinet almost a hundred percent predicated on that.
