@Jay Bee Trump negotiated the Afghan pull-out dates with the Taliban leader known as the "BUTCHER OF BERADAR" who he had released from prison with 5000 of his Taliban buddies--after Biden beat his butt in the election. Trump and Pompeo tried to set up Biden. It's bizarre because Trump went nuts over the Iraq pull-out he blamed on Obama even tho Bush43 negotiated it when the Iraqi leader demanded the US get out. Trump attacked telling people when you plan to leave--yet he set up the same scenario 4 yrs later! Is he that senile/demented? Or so stupid and corrupt he thought he could get away with it?

@@cyninbend Afghan was never a humanitarian war, and would have failed several tests if assessed as one. It was a product, dating back to the late 70s, of the dying days of Cold War dynamics. Biden had the balls, unlike Bush, Obama and Tramp, to actually end this puppet show. Tramp, I would remind you, released hundreds of Taliban militants as part of his 'deal'. ("Bid deal" is all I can say to that".) Any USA ass-biting is a product of delusional thinking. Biden will go down is history as the man who made THE difficult decision, and he will be honoured for this. What will Tramp be remembered for - tax breaks for the millionaires and grifters. Go figure. The rest of the GOP anti-democrats will also have their day in the roll of shame and bad faith.

@Jay Bee Trump let 500,000+ people die of a virus that other countries did a far better job protecting their citizens from. He lied straight out saying it would be gone, he canceled efforts to respond bc he thought he could use blue state deaths against Dems in the 2020 election. Jared told his friends and Vanity Fair reported it at the time. (NOTE: This is called a citation--proves the truth of what I say. Try it.) Trump left an economy in ruins. He repeatedly announced job creations that Obama had accomplished in 2014, 2015, 2016. His economic record is worse than Obama, Clinton, Reagan, Carter... Only the Bushes can compare to his numbers. AND he left a $7 TRILLION greater debt created by cutting taxes on the richest Americans and foreign investors and literally trying to buy a better stock market with constant infusions of cash. He even broke Obama's record of nearly 80 months in a row of job creation within months of taking office. He used lies of caravans of foreigners heading north to invade our borders and of tax cuts for middle-class voters to try to win elections yet lost the Republicons every election after the electoral college victory--yet popular vote loss--in 2016. He broke all his promises of bigger, better healthcare and yet tried that lie over and over and over--all he did was try to take away healthcare from many Americans and create executive orders to create confusion and unpredictability in insurance markets--to raise premiums--he even admitted it to cameras as tho it was something to be proud of! Trying to end health insurance for children and adults with rare, uninsurable diseases as tho this is something to be proud of, instead of something that would kill tens of thousands--something we now know he is happy to do! He said he'd never hire lobbyists, yet his entire admin was full to the brim with lobbyists! He made an Exec Order banning lobbyists in govt and banning govt employees from lobbying within yrs after leaving govt service. THEN HE GAVE EVERY EMP,LOYEE A PERSONAL WAIVER FROM HIS OWN EXEC ORDER! He promised not to hire his kids or Jared then made them the frontline employees in his admin--so they could violate constitutional prohibitions on profiting from govt service. Hundreds of thousands of dollars of profit were declared by Javanka while in the govt jobs Trump promised not to give them. He turned the US into a laughing stock around the world when he brought his 8th grade drop-out daughter to international summits and placed her in his seat representing the largest economy on Earth. (at least it was b4 Trump). Trump made every decision to benefit Russia. Russian farmers now have the long-term Chinese soybean contracts American farmers used to possess while they have lost their farms and are on welfare. Russians now operate US bases in Syria, use our equipment, and have their middle eastern port they wanted for decades while our former allies the Kurds have disappeared after Turkish cleansing...and Trump brags about HIS victory over ISIS. A con worthy of a master--a master of narcissism and corruption. Of lying, of fraud, of genocidal proportions. And we still have not seen the results of his utter corruption of the EPA and Interior Dept, and his utter incompetence at the Dept of Agriculture which bears responsibility for the content of American diets, food products... What superfund cleanup sites will future admins have to pick-up the bills to clean after his lobbyist teams erased regulations protecting air, water, foods... His massive ignorance and lack of a conscience has enabled horrors we have no clue because of the pandemic...full circle back to his letting half a million plus people die. If you are numb to this atrocity, you need to watch the interview done linking to young people in Germany, the UK, and Asia and discussing the emerging deaths in America. They kept bursting into tears, shocked by what the US was experiencing. It was the horror we thought it was to all but the corrupt Trumpists and their dear leader.
