Second Thoughts: Dems Have A Few
American Thinker.com ^ | September 5, 2021 | Clarence Feldman

Posted on 09/05/2021 2:44:33 AM PDT by Kaslin

As the pollsters across the board show resident Biden’s support tanking rapidly (even among those whose polls regularly overweight Democrat support), the major media are having a hard time burying the story of administrative incoherence and stupidity and the consequences here and abroad.

The man who as a candidate promised to repair our international alliances has dealt NATO a significant if not fatal blow. The rush to bug out of Afghanistan left hundreds, probably thousands of persons who were citizens, green card holders, and allies behind. And our NATO allies have not been able to extract all their people either. Worse, for reasons that seem impossible to justify, we gave the Taliban the names of the people we wanted to extract and turned down their offer to guard the airport ourselves instead of turning that task over to them. Credible reports and videos at the site show how the Taliban refused entry to those entitled to leave. Among others, busloads of American women and schoolchildren who made it to the airport gate were denied entry by our own troops and officials at the Department of State refused to intervene.

Afghans on those flights were not well vetted and it turns out a significant number of them are on terrorist watch lists and will have to be turned down.

Others are being flown to military bases for processing and then will be relocated to locations where local communities will have to bear the burden of providing for them as most of the noncitizens and permanent residents do not have Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) status which entitles them to obtain work permits. That means most were not confirmed allies of ours in Afghanistan.

I’m old enough to remember the MSM daily, breathless announcements of bad poll numbers for Republican Presidents.

Biden must get new voters, who can hardly speak the language, to vote Democrat. He will pay them money, house them, feed them, just for a D vote.

don’t fool yourself, the only reason why some of those in the Media-Dem Party are disillusioned with Biden is they don’t think he has been radical enough. They had hoped he would have granted Amnesty by now, implemented the Green New Deal, rammed thru Critical Race Theory at all levels of education, and much more.

“...polls mean nothing to them...”

Why would they? With an MSM biased to the point of crime, in your pocket, what do polls matter?
