The glee coming from right-wing radio pundits as they report on Afghanistan is disgusting

You can tell they are loving the chaos and the chance to put it on Biden. I swear some of them are sexually aroused over it. I tuned in briefly on my way to the store just now.

There's no mention of Trump's betrayal to the Afghan government through his deal with the Taliban. There's no mention of how Trump's stupid deal worked in the Taliban's favor and enabled them to advance militarily. There's no mention of the 5000 Taliban fighters let out of jail through Trump.

They're not giving any of the 20 year history, just the current chaos that has them tingling.

But the silence from the left while Biden is actually making the best out of a bad situation is what sickens me.


If the same thing happened under Trump as soon as Dems spoke against Trump GOP would've gone to statement #1 from foreign war playbook.

Statement #1 "How dare you question the commander in chief while are brave men and women in uniform are in harms way!"

At that point the weak kneed reactionary left would've been effectively muzzled.
