It’s hilarious that the entire point was to draw focus on how Biden fucked up the withdrawal from Afghanistan (while following Trump & literal Taliban combined plan), but all anybody is talking about now is how disrespectful Trump & company is. His purpose for doing this is entirely lost now.
Edit: taliban not isis
The https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States–Taliban_deal which was entirely negotiated and ratified by the Trump administration 🙄
If I recall Trump said "they couldn't stop even if they tried"
Crowing about it because he will use it as an attack later. Just like the tax bomb set to raise income tax for regular Americans after Donald's term.
Donald Trump is not a smart man. He didn't become the threat that he is due to his own skilful manoeuvring. He became a threat because the institutions that are supposed to oppose people like him have failed.
Now that, for the first time in his political career, he's up against an opponent with basic competence he can't do anything other than flail impotently.
This has Lewandowksi's fingerprints all over it.
It's late, and I misread this as:
This has Lebowski's fingerprints all over it.
Needless to say I was a bit confused.
The Orange man is not the issue, MSM, also, dude, please, Orange-American.
Fucking thank you. I'm tired of people saying he's not stupid... This man is a fucking moron. Low cunning is not the same thing as intelligence.
Even if it worked, that's just more hypocritical nonsense.
"Biden messed up, these 13 Americans are dead. Not quite as many people as I killed by messing up a pandemic response, or by blowing the cover of American spies, but if I get in office again I'm sure my decisions will kill a lot more people. What were we talking about again?"
literal Isis
You mean the Taliban's plan, the US negotiated the withdrawal with the Taliban.
It is crazy to expect the Afghanistan military to fight when the US president negotiated handover of Afghanistan with the Taliban
I mean the afghan military was only marginally less awful than the Taliban, sometimes significantly worse, and they weren't exclusive evils to the afghan people. Turns out giving money and arms to the worst psychopaths you can find to fight the other group of psychopaths you gave money and arms to doesn't have a good outcome.
To quote an afghan before the withdrawal: We have three problems, Kabul, the Taliban, and the Americans. When the Americans leave, we will have two problems.
Yes, that’s what I meant… I’ll edit…
Please please please start another speakership crisis 🙏
Man, ever since Biden dropped out, the fascists have been even more incompetent than usual. I'm gonna assume it's from them panicking.
Here's the thing, a weak Democrat candidate meant the GOP could ride the curtail of a natural red wave born from voter dissatisfaction into another Trump presidency. They didn't have to try faced with Biden so they didn't have as many opportunities to show their incompetence.
Now democrats have rallied and the writing is on the wall that Trump isn't good enough just by the virtue of being the republican choice. He actually has to try, which he hasn't done since 2016, and he's pretty bad at trying.
That is just Trump showing his usual respect for the military and especially the "losers" (according to him) - those who paid the ultimate price to protect the country.
Using dead soldiers as a political prop. Keep it classy, Republicans.
Support the Troops was only a catchy political slogan.
I hope this thing has legs and plagues them endlessly.
This is another guy I feel is untrustworthy just based on his face alone.
It was the whole. Family porn tracking app thing that skeeved me the fuck out.
Imagine being the secret service IT guy who has to build a firewall around that creepy fuck's wank bank for National Security interests.
I very much so need some kind of source to read. Not because I don't believe you, I am very interested in what you're talking About. Lol
Yeah I'll leave that link blue. I think the headline is enough for me.
It has a sort of "I raped your cat but you can't prove it" energy.
What's with the devil horn finger gesture two women are making in the picture?
Pretty sure it's the University of Texas' ~~A&M university's~~ "hook 'em" sign.
Not seeing that. Share.
Far left woman.
She's just pointing. The "pinky finger" of the horns is actually from the last in blue past her. If you zoom in all the way you can see the skin tone matches.
Fuck Ron Johnson.
Yes, I know it's the wrong Johnson but, still, it needs to be said.
But they loooooove the troops, right? Right?
They love the troops like they love women: things to be talked about, controlled and used as you see fit, then thrown away and never thought of again (until there's a scandal anyway).
If only avoiding Trump was as easy as avoiding porn!
I feel bad for the Marckesano family. It's so hard to bury a loved one who served our country, with all the pressures and hardships involved. It's an unfair and unexpected addition to a hard time like this.
