President Trump’s plan, if followed, would have kept this current disaster from taking place. This catastrophe that will haunt us in the future could have been avoided. Unfortunately, we have an imbecile in charge with invisible, unaccountable puppeteers pulling his strings.
Allegedly, Biden wanted to call Barack Obama for advice but his staff convinced him not to call. The White House is filled with his staff from Valerie Jarrett, Susan Rice, and so many others. Could it be that Obama wanted plausible deniability?
STATEMENT FROM LT. GEN. KELLOGG, FORMER DNI RATCLIFFE, FORMER ACTING SECRETARY OF DHS CHAD WOLF AT AMERICA FIRST POLICY ORG
They offered the following statement:
“For the past 20 years, our men and women have served heroically in Afghanistan. We must never forget their sacrifice.

The Biden Administration alone owns this failure, adding Afghanistan to Biden’s long history of, as President Obama’s Secretary of Defense Robert Gates said, being “wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.”
Leaders around the world didn’t just respect Trump, they feared him. Trump, like Reagan, knew how to use Economic Might and knew that that properly applied the Economic might of the US could crush any country. Trump was a threat to the “Bankers”. Trump would have kept Afghanistan in line because he would have used our economic might to pressure… Read more »

Then, Hillary compounded it with Benghazi, and now Western Civilization is in complete turmoil
Trump runs businesses and a family. He is far too competent to do what Biden did. Look how Biden runs businesses (government influence payoffs, China created shadow corporations) and family (drugged child being blackmailed for porno films). Beware of the media overcovering this story, but they will never mention Trump’s plan (which all opposed, influcing Mitch) would have worked. We… Read more »
How many are hoping Biden’s press event is his Formal Resignation.
