b'IS BIDEN JUST CARTER 2.0? That is the question being pondered by Kim Strassel\'s new book The Biden Malaise:How America Bounces Back from Joe Biden\'s Dismal Repeat of the Jimmy Carter Years which you can buy here, as it comes out tomorrow. She sent this description:Our current president inherited a better situation along with the lessons of what not to do from Carter\'s governance. Biden, captive to an ascendent progressive wing of his party, doubled down on Carter\\u2019s mistakes and created crises that were as avoidable as they are now severe. From soaring energy prices and inflation to humiliating foreign policy errors, the Biden administration\'s political mess is self-imposed. His political handling of these fiascoes\\u2014like Carter\\u2014has only made his situation worse. Democrats risk a public backlash of the sort that opened the way to the Reagan Revolution.She joins me at 12:30 to discuss it.'
