The United States is the leading country in the world, but when countries unwind, it is often a complete surprise to the people who live there, observed Navy SEAL veteran Erik Prince in an exclusive interview with RedState.com.
“I’ve been to enough countries right after that’s happened, and you know exactly how it happened—and so there is no place to go after America—and so we had to, we gotta get our act together,” Prince said.
“Here’s the thing, America is like a turbine engine, which is a magnificent piece of engineered machinery, and you can throw gravel and stuff in a turbine, but eventually that turbine comes apart in a blindingly fast, horrific event,” he said.
“We can continue to throw gravel in the, in the engine built by our forefathers racking up more debt, building a society that is less accountable, less educated, and less responsible–and eventually it can come apart, and then we’ll all sit around saying, ‘How did that happen?'” he added.

My former boss.
We want MAGA, they want CACA.
This is the same guy who was crowing about what the NYPD found on Anthony Weiner’s laptop.
(FBI seized it and it all went away)
“My former boss.”
It is hard to tell just by reading someone’s opinion, but he sounds as if he would be a good guy to work for. Expecting you to be honest, work hard, and give your best while doing what is right for the organization, but understanding that “life” happens.
Really, remind me how successful he was within the confines of Afghanistan?
His quote...“If the U.S. were a stock, then I would say the stock value has been diminished over the last few years—and the credibility, the respect for, or even fear of from our opponents all have diminished.”
Sort of like his credibility and those who were dumb enough to work for him only for the money!
War profiteer unless I’m mistaken.
Exactly, if you judge his success based on taxpayer dollars received, he was very successful! He sure threw a whole lot of gravel in that “machine”.
Hmmm. I think the democrats see America as a latrine. Just keep filling it with feces and human waste.
The democrats have never ever been supportive of the United States.
I - who know NOTHING about Afghanistan could have come up with an exit strategy BETTER than what Biden and his goons came up with. So could a smart fifth grader. So could a drunk homeless person. This isn't rocket science. Operation Freedom’s Sentinel has merit. The Biden crime family doesn't.
“America is like a turbine engine, which is a magnificent piece of engineered machinery, and you can throw gravel and stuff in a turbine, “
A PERFECT description of what the rad left is deliberately trying to do.
You sound mad.... and confused.
But thanks for all the ignorance.
Thank you.
