If it Was Donald Trump Who Pulled Out of Afghanistan.
Imagine how the right wing would be responding to all of this.
It’s been as difficult as it has been surreal to watch the situation in Afghanistan only continue to devolve in recent days, and listening or watching commentary coming from the right wing have only made it even more difficult to stomach. Of course, there was Tucker Carlson essentially giving props to the Taliban, and how can we forget Lauren Boebert declaring they’re the only ones building back better. All that being said, perhaps even more unbearable has been the commentary coming from people like Lindsay Graham, who is literally threatening Biden with impeachment over our military’s exit. Graham’s comments are particularly interesting, considering this was none other than Donald Trump’s goal in the first place.
Which begs the question, how would the right wing be reacting if it was Donald Trump presiding over this situation?
What would Lindsay Graham be saying if it was Donald Trump sitting in the oval office, signing off on the withdrawal of troops and watching everything taking place in the aftermath? What would Lindsay Graham have to say if Donald Trump was president when Afghans were falling from airplanes in a desperate attempt to escape?
