Outlaw Platoon’s Sean Parnell Surges in PA as Biden Fails in Afghanistan
Breitbart ^ | Aug 23 | MATTHEW BOYLE

Posted on 08/23/2021 5:51:14 AM PDT by RandFan

Sean Parnell, the Afghanistan war veteran who led the infamous “Outlaw Platoon” for more than a year of heavy fighting against the Taliban and terrorists, is surging in his bid to become Pennsylvania’s next U.S. Senator as Democrat President Joe Biden fails in his withdrawal from the 20-year war in Afghanistan.

“Pennsylvania voters are seeking candidates for office who will put America and the people of our great nation first,” Parnell told Breitbart News. “If the chaos in Afghanistan has highlighted anything, it’s the fact that there’s a gigantic leadership vacuum in Washington, DC. The only way to fix that is to start electing more citizen leaders and fewer career politicians. I’m not going to the Senate to be a follower, I’m going there to be a leader because I know our nation stands on a very thin line between hope and darkness.”

This moment — almost made for Parnell — where Biden completely botched the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan has propelled the war hero from Pennsylvania to new heights in his bid for the U.S. Senate and on the national stage. At every turn, he has been countering Biden’s moves and comments with key tweets, comments, and media appearances — ripping the president and more broadly Democrats and leftists for lies and mistakes, critiquing them with the expertise only someone who actually served there could.

“surging in his bid to become Pennsylvania’s next U.S. Senator “

These reports are so annoying. People STILL assume elections are going to be legitimate. They’re not.

Agreed. There’s a disdain for us commoners that transcends politics. They’ve captured power, have our money to use how they wish, and they will pay any and all entities available to help them steal every election going forward. The people of Venezuela also thought elections would save them... until they couldn’t.

Yup, mail in voting meant he lost the last election even though he had a huge lead in the real vote.

Yup, let’s just all give up and sit behind our keyboards and bitch like a bunch of sour old men. There’s a recipe for success.

I didn’t know Sean P was running. I’ve respected him and admired, from a distance, for quite a bit. Good guy.

Thank you. Remember the “Just stay home” idiots during the GA runoff. Led by...

He seems very decent.

Citizen not career politician. The Senate needs more of those.

I look forward to learning more.

There was a lot of voter fraud in Pennsylvania - and that needs to be cleared up.

I was in Penn in October 2020 - all up and down the state visiting relatives - saw nothing but fervid Trump support all over except in Philly. We even had to wait while a large Trump parade passed in one of the towns we visited (my nephew was at the head of the parade driving a decked out Trump Big Rig, so we didn’t mind).

Very hard, if not impossible for me to believe Biden won that state.

I’ve already seen more “Trump 2024” signs here in Indiana than I saw “Biden 2020” all of last year, LOL.

Lin Wood. Who still has not provided the evidence he claims concerning CJ Roberts.

He’s an unethical person who happens to be a lawyer.
