Events in Afghanistan were predictable.

This was Minority Leader McConnell's statement four months ago on the floor of the Senate just the week before Kamala Harris bragged about being the "last person in the room" when Biden decided to withdraw from Afghanistan.

Republicans got this one correct from the start.

If that was the case, I daresay we never should have gone in to begin with. Bin Laden could have been taken out without invasion. We all knew this in the beginning. We also knew it would fall the moment we left. I remember having many discussions here on FR during that time about that very thing. At times, I was lambasted for my beliefs, because we were all starry eyed patriots just chomping at the bit to get back at em for 9/11. Well, here we are!

Put a sock in it McConnell, you RINO piece of schiff. Where were you to fight for Trump and pass his priorities? Where were you on the stolen election? Where were you on 1/6. Where were you on millions of illegals invading the southern border? Where were you to stop trillions in Democrat spending. McConnell, you are a horses ass. Take your commie CCP wife and get out of our country. You are not welcome here.

On China, the administration's tough talk has been welcome, but its proposal to cut defense spending after inflation suggests there is less interest in walking the walk. We will not keep pace with China and Russia by cutting defense spending to placate fringe parts of the far left.

This from someone who voted for the free trade agreements with communist China. The fact that these free trade deals are what allowed them to build up their military while forcing us to borrow money for ours must be completely lost on him.

Mitch McConnell is the most useless of tools. Why post this ChiCom-owned puke’s Military-Industrial Complex rantings?

Globalist leftists like McConnell and the Bushes got us into this mess in the first place.

We could’ve gotten out of Afghanistan without this disaster, easily. Even now we could reduce the entire country to smoldering ash with conventional bombs and we won’t do it. Why? We know the answer.

If this was Trump, impeachment charges would already be passed by the house.
