Bidenvilles: America’s New Emblem of Decay

Bidenvilles: America’s New Emblem of Decay
  • “Bidenvilles” are the inevitable outcome of progressive-Left policies.
"In French, a “bidonville” is a shantytown. 
...What surprised me when I came home to Washington, D.C., a few months ago was seeing shantytowns both outside the State Department, where my old office was, and Union Station, near my new office.
In America under President Joe Biden, the word “Bidenville” is beginning to gain traction as a term for a waste-filled, insalubrious tent city inhabited by what the left calls “people experiencing homelessness,” who often suffer from an unfortunate combination of drug addiction and mental illness.
Shantytowns aren’t new to America. 
  • During the Great Depression, they were ironically called Hoovervilles after President Herbert Hoover. However, at that time, Hoovervilles comprised able-bodied people who were out of work due to the worst economic crisis and highest unemployment in U.S. history. 
  • Now, unemployment is low and entry-level jobs go begging. 
The Bidenvilles of today are filled more by ideology and incompetence than economic duress..."
