Trump calls on Biden to ‘resign in disgrace’ over crisis in Afghanistan
-
I've not seen any commentary from former presidents on all this. I think there's a tradition of not butting in; there's an understanding of what it's like to be in the hot seat, and they had their turn and now it's so-and-so's turn, and leave him to it.
It's kind of like when Tom Brady was asked to comment on Aaron Rodgers' troubles, and what advice he would give him. I don't recall Brady's exact words, but it was something to the effect that Rodgers knows what he's doing and he, Brady, had faith that Rodgers would handle it just fine.
Kind of like that.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

One big difference between Trump and other former Presidents, Trump is still a potential candidate for the office in the future.

Please, the press will forget about it by September.
Joe will forget about it by Wednesday unless he takes his pill…

Do you guys think Biden will resign?
Nah. His handlers won't let him.
All I know is that Trump demanded it. I would be very careful about crossing Trump, if I were Biden. Trump is almost as dangerous as robots. And everybody knows how scared the elderly are of robots.

I may be wrong, but I think 44 broke that tradition.
In half.

Maybe...
But you can bet your ass.... Read my lips... it will resurface in Nov '22 and Nov '24.
We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on. -

The videos of Afghans clinging to the wheel wells of transports will be all over the news.
Not to mention the guy falling to his death.

I saw 2 fall in the video. It's being reported that it was actually 3.
I'm so curious what those people were thinking. They must have thought it's somewhat like a train and they could actually make it if they held on tight enough.
