The GOP is pulling for the Taliban...

... to embarrass Joe Biden and America.

They don't really care if the American troops are killed in the process of evacuation. They will just blame Biden.

Just as they rooted for Putin. (Who can forget that more Republicans supported Putin than supported the Democratic Party in a poll a few years ago)

Just as they rooted against our Olympic team when they lost.

Now they are rooting for the Taliban and the terrorists to embarrass America.

Just as they cheered for and assisted the terrorists that attacked our Capitol. The majority of the Republican Party was ready to accept authoritarianism over democracy. There was something about democracy that they just did not like?

They are hoping America fails.

They are anti-American assholes.

Especially if that “minority” is part of a diverse coalition majority.
