Remember when Biden was going to save our foreign policy, relations with NATO allies, etc. How's that working out? Living Well Is the Best Revenge, Except for Rubbing Your Enemies’ Faces in Their Shameful and Irreparable Failure
While schadenfreude is cold comfort, it is the only comfort that there is in this situation.
Winning an argument is good. Seeing your antagonists exposed as fools is also good. But is victory so sweet, if won at such cost? An absolute catastrophe is now unfolding in Afghanistan because the guy that all the Smart People™ told us would Restore Our Precious Norms has turned out to be a blundering dimwit.

Tough years ahead, folks.
I don't think it is our nation most immediately at risk today. Ukraine, Poland and Taiwan are at risk, though not necessarily in that order.
America/USA, the nation is already dead. It's now just really obvious.
ReplyDeleteGo ahead, name one thing/institution (besides real sugar Dr Pepper) which is worth saving, which is even left to be saved. I'll wait.
My family is worth saving. I really don't want to see all of the US descend into the chaos of the inner cities.
