Warmonger Stunts & Bold New Afghanistan Strategy​: More War!




https://www.wonkette.com/war-monger-stunts-bold-new-afghanistan-strategy-more-war


Ever since President Joe Biden decided to follow through with the end of the war in Afghanistan, one already negotiated by the previous administration, we've had no shortage of armchair quarterbacks criticizing the decision. As the August 31 deadline approaches, it seems all the warhawks came to the Sunday shows to either request for forever war or criticize our exit strategy.

On CBS' "Face The Nation," political remora Senator Lindsey Graham from South Carolina decided to honor his last two long-term relationships with Donald Trump & the late John McCain. For McCain, Graham advocated for John's true love (foreign wars) when asked what he would have done differently than Biden.

GRAHAM: Well, number one, I wouldn't have withdrawn. I would have kept the counterterrorism forces on the ground. [...]


Graham channelled his war boner so much, it removed his ability to coherently spit out the soundbite he practiced all night.

GRAHAM: But let me tell you where I think we're at. This is a cata...catamalystic...a cat... just a fair beyond my ability to describe it.


Graham then decided to give some very late advice.

GRAHAM: [...] First thing we need to do is not recognize the Taliban as the legitimate government of Afghanistan.


That's some sage advice you maybe should have given Trump and Mike Pompeo when they made this deal with the Taliban, Lindsey.
