A word of advice to Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump...

[kentuck]

Just shut the hell up!

If you are thinking about using this crisis in Afghanistan to incite another insurrection, don't.

The people do not need to hear any of your crap at this time.

1. Of course they will . . .

shithole is already blaming Pres Biden, mcturtle and the rest of the comrades will parade around with it as well.

It will backfire.

2. Are you kidding

this will be rubbed in our faces for the midterm elections. What else do they have

3. America does not care if their own citizens live or die.

I seriously doubt they care about brown people far away.

6. I'm an American

and I care. We’ll see how it plays out, as they say Time will tell . Whoever “they “ are

10. You're not a MAGAt. Those people are probably mad that we're bringing some to the US.

11. I have

issues but certainly not their issues. Them aside as they are a minority, albeit a scary minority and soon to die of Covid. I’m still worried because a portion of this country feels let down and we are getting ready for midterm elections

4. In 2 months

They're going to try to score some points now politically, because in a month or two, the American people are going to be happy we left Afghanistan.

5. I suspect you may be right.

I would not be surprised, even at this moment, that the American people agreed with getting out of Afghanistan.

8. 70-29 was the poll for getting out of Aghanistan

The American people polled 70-29 for getting out of Afghanistan just last week. 56% of Republicans wanted to get out.

And that's the bottom line. Did we miscalculate how easily the Afghan government would give up? Sure, but in the end, the people are getting what they want. This isn't like some 50-50 deal, 70-29 in this day and age is overwhelming.

7. I heard a reporter on one of the shows yesterday, who had been in contact

with the offices of several Congress-people. He said that literally none of them had been receiving any phone calls from constituents freaking out over Afghanistan.

9. It's a media driven freak out

And that's fine, Biden is largely a boring and competent president, the media needs something to freak out about.
