Graham: ‘All This Was Avoidable — Joe Biden Chose Poorly’
Breitbart ^ | 08/16/2021 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 08/16/2021 1:30:53 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Monday on FNC’s “America Reports,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) was critical of the Biden administration’s handling of Afghanistan on the heels of the collapse of the Afghan government.

The South Carolina Republican lawmaker argued the Trump administration had the situation on a proper course, but President Joe Biden abandoned a plan put in place by former President Donald Trump and was now dealing with the consequences.

“Well, for about three years, we had a formula that worked, a small American contingent of soldiers and airmen providing close air support to the Taliban, intel to the — excuse me — to the Afghan security forces and medical evacuation capability,” he said. “That gave the edge to the Afghan security forces. So what happened is, we changed the game. Joe Biden is responsible for this, not Donald Trump. Donald Trump had a conditions-based withdrawal. The military told President Biden, if you pull the plug on Afghanistan, it’s just a matter of time that the Taliban takeover in whole or part.”

The Pubs need ONE MESSAGE:

“It wasn’t that we should leave Afganistan, Trump said that. It was HOW we left.”

Stupid pubs won’t even get together for that one clear message.

Mr. Graham chose to be a Republican today, and I generally agreed with what he said.

Most likely, he will chose to be a RINO weasel again at some future point, but he was correct today.

Linda! Words like that is not going to heal your broken relationship with Joe Biden that you allowed Donald Trump to effect. Joey is no doubt really hurt by that!

At least he’s putting down Biden. Granted, the Republicans cannot seem to criticize something without wholeheartedly endorsing its opposite. Anyway, BLAME BIDEN. Even the nitwits in the GOP should be able to grasp that. Well, Ben Sasse didn’t, but he’s even dumber than most of them.
