...that Opium production & distribution just got a boost from Joe removing ALL presence from Kabul

...that gun sales are at all times highs, & Joe failed to stop mass shootings.

...that we are defunding the police, who are our last line of defense.

How about you?

Yeah, Orange Man was bad, but this senile, rich, very old, white guy takes the lack of safety & security to a whole new level. Be very afraid, & aware of what lurks, because nobody has your back right now.
I am not more worried about a terrorist attack because I don't live in a large city and nothing of significance to attack here and I don't fly or take public transportation, I am more fearful for our country with that moron in the white house who thinks he is a king and can do whatever he wants to the American people.

That secret meeting was cancelled when the Taliban blew up some stuff and killed 12 people. Trump disclosed this in a tweet. While the meeting was cancelled, it did not prevent direct negotiations with the Taliban.

The Trump Admin executed an agreement with the Taliban on 2/29/2020 to withdraw all troops by 5/1/2021 and to facilitate the release of 5000 Taliban fighters from Afghan prisons. It twisted the arm of its puppet Afghan president who released 5000 Taliban fighters in 2020.

By the time Trump left office only 2500 US troops remained, despite the Taliban had not lived up to their end of the deal.

Trump’s resolve to end the war in Afghanistan was matched by Biden’s will to do the same.

20 years, $Trillions spent and thousands of US lives lost was enough.

The US military industrial complex is not pleased and depends on perpetual invasions and wars.
How about the short answer..yes or no?

Quite the opposite is so.
Biden set right away to undo many of the things that Trump did to make us safer.
Biden if far from uniting us as he BS America about doing.

Does Biden even know where he is most of the time between his wandering off?
Doesn't look like it.

Be thankful you are not among those Americans left to fend for themselves in Afghanistan.

I think you can find rose-colored glasses on sale at Amazon.

Lol! You sure have very low standards. Biden certainly isn’t smart, Obama said joe messes up everything he touches. Obama called it.

Our country is being gutted from within. For those that think we can be saved by 2022 midterm elections.....I don't think there will be anything left to save.
