OPINION:
The Democrats in the House and Senate seem to be more party members than Americans. Not all, but the majority. It appears now that not all of the Americans in Afghanistan will be evacuated, as was initially said by the talking heads of the Biden administration. The narrative changed to ’All who wanted out would get out.’ But many could not for a variety of reasons (i.e., family, distance away or being turned away by our new, friendly Taliban).
I was a cavalry scout in the army and a career fire captain for 34 years. As a soldier and firefighter, I knew that if I was in trouble, the others would move heaven and Earth to rescue me — even if there was apossibility of losing members of the rescue effort. Our elected officials should look into their mirrors and determine if the reflection is more Democrat or American.
Those who do not cry out about the incompetency of our national security team, from the president on down, are aiding our enemies. The Democrats seem to be haters of all things American, but the Republicans tend to be buffoons. The incompetence of our president and his military leaders and advisers is beyond staggering.
The primary job of the president and military is to protect America and Americans, and they are failing. It’s time for a change. Remember, folks, there are major threats facing the nation from China and Russia. I doubt that Biden strikes fear in their hearts. They just might think him a clown who wandered away from the circus.
