Joe Biden’s Presidency Ends: A Legacy of Weakness, Missed Opportunities, and Decline

As Joe Biden’s presidency finally comes to a painful end, the damage to America’s relationship with Israel, the rise in unchecked antisemitism, and his own declining mental sharpness paint a grim picture. For four years, Biden’s weak policies, lack of clarity, and inability to lead left Israel vulnerable, Jewish Americans unsupported, and America’s reputation on shaky ground.

Failing Israel in Critical Moments

During key moments, Biden showed he wasn’t up to the task of standing by America’s closest ally. In the conflict with Hamas, his administration couldn’t deliver a clear, strong message of support. Instead, Biden’s lukewarm comments about Israel’s “right to defend itself” were undercut by calls for “restraint,” leaving Israel to fend for itself while its enemies grew emboldened.

Even worse, Biden reinstated funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), notorious for spreading anti-Israel sentiment. Actions like these didn’t just abandon Israel—they actively undermined its security and sent the wrong message to those who wish it harm.

Ignoring Antisemitism at Home

Antisemitism surged on Biden’s watch, yet his response was largely symbolic. His administration adopted a watered-down definition of antisemitism, allowing anti-Israel hostility to flourish under the guise of “legitimate criticism.” Jewish students on college campuses were left to endure harassment while Biden’s leadership offered little more than hollow speeches.

At a time when Jewish Americans needed decisive action, Biden’s presidency delivered vague platitudes and little else.

Soft on Enemies, Weak for Allies

Biden’s approach to Iran, a regime that openly calls for Israel’s destruction, was perhaps his most glaring failure. His insistence on reviving the nuclear deal signaled weakness, putting Israel—and the entire region—at greater risk. Pair this with his administration’s inconsistent support for Israel, and it’s clear Biden’s foreign policy was anything but pro-Israel.

Cognitive Decline and Missed Opportunities

Biden’s cognitive decline became increasingly apparent throughout his term, raising serious questions about his ability to lead. Slurred speeches, confused statements, and an inability to decisively handle critical situations left America and its allies wondering who was truly in charge. Israel, in particular, suffered from the lack of a strong, clear-headed ally in the White House.

Trump: A Proven Ally for Israel and the Jewish People

In contrast, Donald Trump’s presidency was a masterclass in supporting Israel and standing against antisemitism. He moved the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, brokered the historic Abraham Accords, and took a zero-tolerance approach to antisemitism at home and abroad. Trump’s leadership was clear, decisive, and unwavering—qualities sorely missed over the past four years.

As Biden’s presidency finishes, Jewish Americans and pro-Israel advocates look to the future, hoping for a return to strong leadership. Trump has proven he can deliver the kind of decisive support Israel and the Jewish people need. It’s time to rebuild what Biden’s term has eroded and restore America’s role as a true ally to Israel.
