So I knew it would get worse before it got better. Our weak stance and hasty withdrawal from Afghanistan....it was a huge mistake. It was foolish for Donald Trump to negotiate with the Taliban. It was incompetence on the part of Joe Biden to make such an unwise decisions that has left so many dead or wounded. I don’t blame them. I blame America. We brought this on. We are responsible for every single death today. For decades we have been treating politics as if it were a tram sport. If the penalty was on our team there had to be a reason. If it was the other team, well they are no good dirty rats. They are just determined to destroy America with their corporate greed or their free handouts. We are the reason today happened. We root for the other team to fail not realizing that their failure hurt us all. We continually set the other team in a position so we could always say we were wronged and ifs all their fault. This has created so much instability. This has created a weaker America. The constant change in direction in Afghanistan over and over placed countless people in danger and left us funding a war without a clear path forward. We killed Osama, why didn’t Obama pull us out? Trump created a deal? Why didn’t he do it? We can play the team sport however you want to, but if you don’t see that that’s the problem, then you are the problem. If we don’t stop the stupid and silly team sport of politics and constantly setting the other team up to fail, then today is just the start of our problems. We can disagree on politics. We may even have legitimate quarrels and positions on issues, but the constant fighting and desire to see the other side fail is unacceptable. I’m tired of it. I’m tired of the finger pointing and the excitement, that America has failed, when we feel our team won. Left, Right, Independent, today’s blood and our failure in Afghanistan falls on all of us. When are we going to realize that it’s time to stop the games?
