President Trump continued with his “Save America” tour on Saturday when appearing in Cullman, Alabama. Predictably, he hit Biden over his failures with Afghanistan. This from townhall.com.
Q Mr. President, some Vietnamese veterans see echoes of their experience in this withdrawal in Afghanistan. Do you see any parallels between this withdrawal and what happened in Vietnam, with some people feeling —
BIDEN: None whatsoever. Zero. What you had is — you had entire brigades breaking through the gates of our embassy — six, if I’m not mistaken.
The Taliban is not the south — the North Vietnamese army. They’re not — they’re not remotely comparable in terms of capability. There’s going to be no circumstance where you see people being lifted off the roof of a embassy in the — of the United States from Afghanistan. It is not at all comparable.
President Trump offered that “Biden failed totally on the pandemic,” as he also said that “and now he’s overseeing the greatest foreign policy humiliation in the history of the United States of America.”
Biden once had strong marks over how he’s handled the pandemic, but, like virtually all other issues, respondents are asked about, across various polls, support for [Biden] on this issue is going down as well.
Trump certainly had more strong words for Biden as he shared his own thoughts. “This is the greatest humiliation I’ve ever seen,” he said, also offering predictions for the legacy of such a disaster. “Biden’s botched exit in Afghanistan is the most astonishing display of gross incompetence by a nation’s leader. Perhaps at any time that anybody’s ever seen. Name another situation.”
He also made quite the comparison to Vietnam, saying “Vietnam looks like a master class in strategy compared to Joe Biden’s. Catastrophe. And it didn’t have to happen. All he had to do is leave the soldiers there until everything’s out.“
Trump emphasized a sense of lamentations as to how the situation has turned out.
“The scene of those big giant planes taking off with people hanging on the sides and falling off. There will never be anything like that.”
Biden has drawn ire from all sides of the aisle for his reaction during an interview with George Stephanopoulos, pointing out that that was “four days ago, five days ago.”
President Trump once more conjured the image of helicopters, saying what’s going on in Afghanistan is “worse,” and continuing on.
“You remember the helicopters taking off the roofs? This blows it away, not even a contest. This will go down as one of the great military defeats of all time and it did not have to happen that way. This is not a withdrawal. This was a total surrender surrender, surrender, for no reason.”
His lamentations of how it didn’t have to be this way extended to how “then we had a rigged election,” and how Biden “dropped to his knees and he said, come on in and take everything that we have.”
Trump suggested that not only was the withdrawal from Afghanistan “a disgraceful thing” and “the most embarrassing thing that we’ve ever seen in this country,” but he also offered “there’s never been an
embarrassment and the nations of the world. Other nations, both friend and foe,” Trump said, “are looking at us and saying, what the hell happened so quickly to the United States of America? They can’t believe it.“
There’s also concerns with weapons left behind by the United States falling into the hands of the Taliban. “He surrendered our weapons,” Trump said at one point about Biden.
Trump also reminded the crowd that “Joe Biden was going on vacation as Afghanistan was going to hell,” pointing out that “this is what yay get when you have weakness in the White House.”
A particularly-headline grabbing moment of the speech came when Trump addressed wokeness, particularly when it comes to General Mark Milley, the Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staffs. General Milley has garnered particular attention for defending Critical Race Theory.
“I want to understand ‘white rage,’ and I’m white, and I want to understand it,” he said during a House Armed Services Committee hearing in June, as Spencer reported.
Trump invoked the great General George Patton then, asking the crowd if he (Gen Patton) was “woke.”
Such a line, in addition to appearing in numerous headlines, also resulted in thunderous applause from the crowd, as well as chants of “USA!”
Say what you will about Trump’s rhetoric, however, he is speaking for the American people, how we feel about all this bullsh*t that’s being spread upon our nation. This was a rousing speech, with plenty of booing about Joe Biden, as well as cheers and applause at other relevant moments.
When the democrats, the deep state, the main stream media, and the Big Money donors (who did I overlook?) all colluded to steal the 2020 elections–all up and down the ballot nation wide–they lacked a full understanding of just who they were screwing with.
Trump is a power house of equal caliber. And for those who think President Trump should “let it go” and “get over it” please keep in mind, every source of power in America as well as several other places in the world have long been arrayed against him. All he has behind him is his base, We the People. He MUST continue to speak out and speak out loudly as often and in as many venues as possible. God speed President Trump.
If President Trump does not continue to remind the nation and the world about the stolen elections, the issue will die and so will The United States of America.
