There were 63 US military deaths in Afghanistan during the Trump administration. This piece of shit goes around saying that nobody died in that operation during his watch, and talks about how Biden cost the US THIRTEEN lives during the sundown of the Afghanistan war started by Republicans - a series of wars that go back to the first part of the century and sank the country in unimaginable debt.
Biden will be remembered for putting his foot down on the forever wars. And he will be remembered for eviscerating Russia's military and strengthening our EU alliance, using only a fraction of the US military national budget and without putting a single American solider in harm's way.
This piece of shit thinks that's a bad record for Biden, and he is going to go around lying about it, pretending he is making some powerful points about which parties does most to keep us safe.
Who starts unwinnable wars? Who has a barrage of "unavoidable" incidents on their watch? From terrorist attacks to pandemics to historical financial crashes and absurd deficits, it's always a Republican having to make excuses ... "who could have thought the terrorists were plotting and attack, or that the war on terror would take decades" ... "who could have known the virus wasn't going to disappear by April like a miracle."
Somehow the GOP that keeps us safe and is "best" at the economy are the same asswipes that can't protect us from attacks, start wildly misguided wars, and sink us into unpayable debt planted squarely on the shoulders of our youth.
But it's all somehow Harris' fault now. And this piece of shit is going to tell us why by fabricating some nonsense about the Biden admin, and lying about his party's record and his own.
The Afghanistan withdrawal happened because it was arranged during the Trump administration.
It was supposed to happen in May, Biden pushed it back to August.
It's honestly kind of disgusting how much time both administrations had to pull out of there after that withdrawal was set in stone, and it was still a last minute clusterfuck!!! All the DoDs shit should've been shipped back long before the deadline, it literally could have been just a couple desk jockeys putting their stuff in a box and walking into a plane.
A phased drawdown could have invited more attacks. It was done quickly so the taliban wouldn't have time to react. Not that I'm happy with how it went or how much fucking gear and people got left behind, but I at least understand the thought process.
It was "done quickly" because the Taliban was actively trying to enter after the DoD ran the fuckin' clock out. There is no excuse for doing fuck all in advance (that i am aware of); both administrations screwed the pooch here, and people died as a consequence, both soldiers and afghani civilians who were abandoned by the US. It's disgraceful.
This piece of shit goes around saying that nobody died in that operation on how watch.
Just like how Joe is a piece of shit for also saying nobody died. He stood in front of the nation and denied what happened to those thirteen people...as well as others.
"Truth is, I’m the only president this century that doesn’t have — this decade — any troops dying anywhere in the world like he did,"
He said "doesn't have" on July 3 2024, not "had". It's called present tense in English.
Unlike Trump, Biden does not currently have troops dying anywhere in the world.
