Mr. Ramirez, do you still believe we had fair and good election. What a mess we are in because of a selfish, arrogant party and man. He is criminal and so are many of the party. Sigh, what now?
The first hand reports from grunts on the ground indicate this is all political theater. The Taliban is described as bought and paid for by the CIA. Many troops report helping the Taliban. The photos of heavy transport aircraft taking off with hundreds or thousands of desperate Afghanis scrambling to get on board is staged and probably paid for. One soldier reports that Afghanis at the Kabul Airport were chanting “kill America” but at the same time laughing and having fun with doing it. The only thing I can surmise is that this spectacle is meant to demoralize Americans or perhaps intentionally discredit Biden so he can step aside and give the reigns of power to Kamala Harris. If I were to draw a cartoon it would have depicted how whoever staged this wanted it to be perceived side by side with how it was being choreographed.
