More Truth from Afghanistan

August 30, 2021, was another diplomatic and military failure for Uncle Joe Biden. He shut down the only military base capable of offering support to retreating Americans then let the enemy take over the entire country only attempting to evacuate American citizens at the very last minute, and leaving many American citizens and Afghan support people at the mercy of one of the most merciless groups in the world, the Taliban. I pick on democrats a lot. It's almost embarrassing because it could give the wrong impression that I'm a Republican. I don't like either major political party and there isn't a viable third party. I'd pick on Republicans more if they were trying to implement policies that were destructive to our country but they aren't. They are quietly trying to save our country. President Trump never would have allowed our military to abandon American citizens and vital allies in Afghanistan to be murdered by merciless thugs. 

He knew better than to leave behind valuable military hardware including attack aircraft, tanks, personnel carriers, rifles, machine guns, hand grenades and bombs for the enemy to use against innocent Afghan citizens. He never would have left a fortress behind for the enemy to use. He would have taken the time necessary to dismantle the entire base. His order was to remove anything that could be useful to the bad guys. He said 'every board, every nail, every bolt...' he would have only left the dirt. Attack aircraft? No. Tanks, armored personnel carriers, rifles, ammunition, bombs? Nope! Nada, zilch. 

Trump would have made sure that American citizens and important support personnel in Afghanistan  made it out and the egress would have been orderly. The Taliban was no match for the American military and our allies. Joe Biden is great at empty promises and campaign slogans, but actually doing something useful is beyond his meager grasp. If anyone cares to provide examples of things he has accomplished that are actually helpful I'd like to read about them. No one should be totally useless, but he seems to be working at it. 

I don't like picking on democrats all the time. I hope they soon wake up and start thinking of ways to improve this great country instead of finding ways to break it.
