Top Democrat Rep. John Garamendi (D-CA): It’s “Not Sensible” to Provide Stranded Americans Safe Passage to Kabul Airport (VIDEO)

Democrats are showing the world their true face and it is straight from hell.

Top Democrat Rep. John Garamendi (D-CA), the Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, told CNN it’s “not sensible” for the US government to provide safe passage to the thousands of stranded Americans in Afghanistan to the Kabul Airport.

You gotta read this and see this to believe it.

Rep. Garamendi: “We’re going to send American troops in the heart and into the streets of Kabul to extract people? It makes no sense whatsoever. We do control the airport. We’re going to do the very best we can and the people in Kabul and other parts of the country are going to have to do the very best they can to get there. There is no way the American military should use military force to go to someone’s house or some building somewhere to extract people. That will create a very significant problem and a very significant loss of life on both sides… To provide safe passage from parts of a huge city? No way—not sensible.”

Garamendi should just have quoted his president: “F that.”

No- Trump has already made it clear that the entire plan was made available to JoeBama and his incompetents— and the plan did not include 1.) early abandonment of Bagram Air Base, which was hugely expensive to build and seriously fortified perimeter etc. 2.)the exit of the majority of US defensive forces PRIOR to the safe exit of US civilians and allied opsec Afghans (translators, network agents etc.) and did not especially include 3.) the embassy not having already emptied all digital and paper records from any enemy eyes.

JoeBama ignored the timetable that would have had all these people out by May, and then rapid exit of all US forces, incorporated with the either rendered inoperable equipment, or removal of equipment to non-Taliban counterinsurgent native ANA (uh... and “other” combatants) protection and use. Not abandoned all the hell over the place like chicken shite JoeBama “contractor” liars have clearly done— possibly with kickback money from the scrapper/wreckers alone.

there would be no need at this point if Trump’s plan given to them had been followed, to ever order troops in as this incompetent dementia bozo and his criminal chi-com directed “staff” have purposely done. Criminal actions.

Dems abandoning 10,000 citizens behind enemy lines equals abandoning the whole nation.

But the communists don’t see it that way.

Sacrifice or risk their lives for others? Not in their playbook........

Let them all be exposed for who and what they are.

Carpet bomb the Taliban strongholds,

If you really want to make them mad carpet bomb their poppy fields and processing & opium storage facilities.

We did that for a short time and they freaked out.

But alas we can't, the Big Guy needs his 20%.

Defund the Capitol Police Department.

It’s not sensible to provide security for Representatives and Senators.

I was wondering if anyone would know who I was referring to, using Rush’s lingo.

Did the reporter ask him if he would say the same thing if his wife was stranded over there?

I think it's highly unlikely that his wife is an afghani national who happened to luck their way into getting a U.S. passport in order to collect any type of cash benefits available, only to prefer and hold loyalties to Trashcanistan.

That's the type of "American" that's over there. No rational, non-Trashcanistan born American would be there. All the sensible Americans left months ago.

It will be all forgotten and forgiven, tomorrow. Garamendi is safe and so are all politicians.

John Garamendi is a graduate of the University of Bezerkley - California and Harvard. He also dodged the draft by volunteering for the Peace Corps. He was also involved in ripping off Executive Life policyholders for $5 billion while serving as California Insurance Commissioner.

That should give people a clue of what a dirtbag he is.
