Biden has been a true gift to us all.

No president has ever been so stupid as to torpedo his own re-election within 7 months of being in office

- 15K Americans trapped
- 6K troops deployed
- All Taliban prisoners released from jail
- Special forces deployed
- Afghans throwing babies at soldiers
- Afghans clinging onto planes
- Breaking your own August 31 deadline

There’s no coming back from this fiasco.

You have no candidate for 2024 do you? That`s Trump`s fiasco for the GOP. Afghans who supported those who invaded their country are fleeing. Who really cares? Trump`s agreement with the Taliban had us leaving on May1. The Americans that are trapped should have left the day that agreement was signed.

Biden did not stick to Trump's plan which held a position of strength over the Taliban. If the Taliban harmed or “even scared” an American, there would be a “real cost” to their actions. Taliban had been taking cities over for months and would have been stopped under Trump, but the weakness of Biden was evident with the lack of control over the southern border, crime in US cities, drug flow into the country, etc. Taliban knew bumbling Joe seriously believes he is an expert on foreign affairs, when in fact 47+ years in government and he has screwed up each time, from Saigon to Benghazi.

DeSantis will run on the GOP side and easily defeat Biden or Harris or whatever other fool the Democrats prop up there.

Biden and the Democrats have damaged their side for decades to come.

I just wish we had a leader in the White House. Biden gave a 20 min speech yesterday on Covid and then walked away from the podium. That’s something Americans will never forget.

I hope you're right, but I don't think so.

That’s how it looks now, but there could be some others in the wings. Maybe Nikki Haley. You can always depend on the old guard to blow it, though. Watch them try trotting out Mike Pense.

Another example is the demand for one party control over the entire body politic. Marxism clearly isn’t open to different ideas let alone political parties. This is why their push to change the voting system through H1. Secondly their push to end the Senate filibuster so that all laws can be pushed on the nation without deliberation or challenge. Their push to pack the Supreme Court in an attempt to remove judicial independence breaching the Separation of Powers. Also wanting to add democrat seats to the Senate to ensure control over that body. Facilitating massive illegal immigration to alter the demographics and add significantly to pro Democrat Party voting base. This is evidence of autocratic, power hungry, ideological movement that seeks to crush its opposition to emerge as the sole political and government power. This is Marxist ideology. Read Rousseau, Hegel, and Marx. Doubt you ever had.
"Massive deficit spending" - That's nothing new. In fact, the debt grew substantially under Trump. Does that make him a Marxist also?

"Class warfare propaganda" - Sounds like the Republicans that keep complaining about the "Elites"

"Demand for one-party control" - No evidence of that. We need a strong and credible opposition party. The GOP has lost credibility by refusing to accept the results of a free and fair election.

"push to end the Senate filibuster" - which is a non-Constitutional mechanism for the minority to control the government and frustrate the will of the people. And has nothing to do with marxism. Marxists don't even a Senate to filibuster.

"push to pack the Supreme Court" - no one's packing anything, and again, if they did what would that have to do with marxism? Marxists don't even have a Supreme Court to pack.

"... autocratic, power hungry, ideological movement that seeks to crush its opposition..." - those traits aren't unique to marxism. They apply also to fascists, Islamists and right-wing dictatorships. Which just proves that you have no idea what Marxism actually means.

Biden is so far more of a fiasco hen Trump could ever be.

Uh..no. "The Leftist" does not believe that.
