With Biden in charge, 2021 can be much worse than 2020

Michael Reagan on Dec 31, 2020

He's saying we won't get the vaccines to enough people, and even if we do, we're still going to be living in a masked and locked down country that resembles 2020 California, not 2019 California.

Pessimism like that from a U.S. president is not normal - or healthy for the country.

You may hate President Trump for a lot of reasons, but you can never fault him for not being optimistic and upbeat.

Other presidents - most recently my father, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama - looked on the bright and hopeful side of things.

Biden is the opposite. He looks on the dark side, the Jimmy Carter side.

He and the liberal media sing the same grim tune - that things are bad and they're going to be bad in the future, maybe forever.

On Jan. 20 we're going to lose the only guy in Washington who was consistently optimistic in 2020, one of the most horrible years in our history.

I'm an optimist and I used to think 2021 couldn't be any worse than 2020.

But with Biden and his crew about to take charge of our lives, now I'm not so sure.
