Have a riot?
See who shows up with a mask?

How ironic. The Republicans were previously called the party of war. Guess we are clearly seeing it isn't about 'party', it is about the Swamp. The military industrial complex and the money they give to politicians for 'favor'. Trump took none of their money and they are giving to Dems. They want Washington DC influence and they want another 'war'.

they had an AXE to grind with the Atlantic story...they hate disruption like this
hopefully, they get on with his planned drawdowns
|

The Left will send over another bottle of lube for the “Putin sized” butt hurt, as he is showing weakness in the region and slowing Russian influence to spread like his buttcheeks for more Moscow cock.
|

I am on the left. Trump has been good in recognizing these endless wars as futile. I worry about Biden and some of the neocons.
|

I don't think he will pull the troops out of Afghanistan.
The industrial military complex is too powerful.
Great move, if he actually will do it! 👍

Yes, theDon....we might be dragged into some ridiculous encounters.
We spent way too much time, energy, money and human life fighting endlessly in the Middle East.
Previously, this was to help preserve our access to oil. Now that we are energy independent, we don't need their oil.
But we shut down our own production of non-green sources of energy abruptly and we will be back dependent upon the Middle East for energy. And that will be the reason to move back into the region.
No matter how much you hate Trump, he has tried to get the hell out of that region unless like ISIS, it has direct consequences on US. And he had held our 'allies' feet to the fire to pony up their fair share. We shouldn't have to be the world policeman.....

As much as do not like our conflicts around the globe (and I have personal reasons why) I do like the idea of America being the world policeman. It shows leadership, ability to take on challenges instead of waiting for others to get results, and I would not trust our foreign interests and safety to our foreign allies.

Being the policeman of the world has cost us so many lives needlessly. Just look at Iraq and Afghanistan. Some 3,000 in Afghanistan and 5,000 in Iraq. This does not count the wounded and maimed. It does not count all the soldiers who returned with PTST and related difficulties
And it does not count the terrible civilian toll

The Swamp and Trump - You are leaving out the simple fact that Trump has increased the military budget to unsurpassed levels. Obviously, the military industrial complex is doing better under Trump then ever before. As John MItchell once said: follow what I do not what I say. And, Trump, has done very well for military contractors. Now, the top generals at the Pentagon think Trump is a fucking moron who doesn't understand much about world affairs or military matters but that is a different story.
Regarding the withdraw of troops from Afghanistan, the U.S. and Taliban signed a peace treaty on 2/29/2020 that called for all U.S and Nato troops to be withdrawn in stages, with all troops withdrawn by Spring, 2021. I haven't heard any criticism from the left about the deal or the need to keep troops in Afghanistan beyond the final withdrawal date. I have no idea why you think this is an issue. So, if Trump withdraws all troops by the end of the year rather than spring, 2021, kudos to him.

You didn't read carefully what I said. We need to be involved when WE have an interest. NOT the universal policeman. The world is far to vast with nearly 8 billion people on this globe. There will always be disagreements among nations and factions within a country. Running around playing cop for the world is just beyond the resources of this country. We can't solve the homelessness problem here, and have dozens of other issues on OUR plate.
Our allies need to step up. If they keep getting away with slacking, they will do so.

^^^Coonin' bigly to get white zaddy approval. Disgusting!!! This will be a contingent election
|
|
The test of you just STFU and go sit in a corner listening to Alex Jones lol
Ah yes. The left, who are supposed to be so accommodating and inclusive. They believe in free speech, but ONLY if you agree with them.
|
|
not a snowflake...but call out a bull shitter......so many on the left are the farthest from inclusive and it is a fucking JOKE that Biden is calling for unity, when many of his supporters are shouting people down, wanting to create 'lists' like happened in the McCarthy era, and don't want to listen to another side....
The hypocrisy that drips off the left is amazing.....
|
|
^^Obama is half white. I thought u hated white folk? Super 🦝
|
|
That depends on who you think the left is.
I, for one, would be glad to be out of Afghanistan no matter who ordered it.
I am not holding my breath.
|
|
its time we need to get out anyway. we're chasing down like what? a couple of hundredths of terrorist ?

"My first choice would've been Kamala"
|

Like I said, nobody picks Joe first.
James Clyburn is your MVP
He saved Joe from complete ignominy
Well played
Of course none of it would have worked without 2 things
#1 Covid
#2 See #1
All together now....
Thank you, Covid!

Hit up loser.com, see what you find
You can't be a total loser if you won once
And, it only happened cause the country got so fed up in 2016 after 8 Obama years
They went for the anti-politician
Biden will transition us to a whole new set of felons and scalawags

"So while he "won", with the assistance of Russian intelligence"
Either you've been asleep the last 4 years or dumb enough to go with that old trope?
It's simple, call it pyrrhic if that's what happens but he got what he wanted and goes in the books as having won the presidency. There may or may not be additional wiki entries that denigrate that victory, only time will tell.

lol

Trump has been generous to the complex, which seems to be a runaway train, while not involving us in any new conflicts definitely supporting some..see Saudi Arabia in Yemen :/
I agree the US has a responsibility of world policeman of sorts, but doesn't that just play into the white nationalist/imperialist charge that has been the push from the left over the past 4 years?
I can't wait to see the Dems pivot from anti-interventionism and the reasoning behind it, along with the response from the prog wing of the party.
Looks like Syria will be starting point according to Kamala

Fukk that 'Dictator' label crap. Begin by educating yourself on the Power that politicians have over us. If you want to be told what to do, when to do it and how to do it then keep voting Democrat...
|
|
It’s not that you are being told what to do, is that you are being reminded that you are wrong, you got your facts wrong, what you base your beliefs is questionable and your ability not think out of the box has been compromised. That your way is not the only way and that concepts of how the world should be are best left in the 20th century.
I have no illusions that the leaders of the Democrats are not the best people who *could* lead the nation to greatness, they’re the ones willing to push and put up with crap to get stuff done. But the republicans I could follow and respect have seem to have left the party as the inmates took over the asylum.

Looks like Joey B
really really wants that Qatar/turkey pipeline
Told ya Syria was the jump off
|
|
That didn't take long for the Dem President to start a war.
|

The military-industrial complex is back with a vengance...
They have to spend all that hardware -- planes, tanks, missiles, etc. so they can get paid for selling the government the next round. Leaving them stockpiled does nothing for Raytheon and the other companies. Shoot 'em off like fireworks...they'll make more, all at the expense of the US Taxpayer.

I'd really like to see a few MOAB's dropped on some of these bitches
Nothing like a little shock and awe, besides....it's fun
|
|
Let’s go start at riot and loot shit.
|
|
Well at least we are getting out of Afghanistan soon...
We are still planning on withdrawing our troops soon right?
|

And back on topic. Recent attacks in the region may be forcing us to ditch the “ditch the bitch” plan.
