America should be united at this time, but we are not.
Just as when our country was attacked on 9/11, the people put their political differences aside and united as one nation. And George W Bush was not the most-loved politician in the world at that time.
Our troops and our allies are in severe danger in Afghanistan and as Americans, we should all be pulling for them to succeed. We should not be playing petty politics at this time. As Lindsey Graham and others are doing.
There is a time to put politics aside and work together. This is one of those times. No one should be pulling for the Taliban over America at this time. Unfortunately, that seems to be the case.
