An astonishing thought occurred to me today as I listened to President Biden’s announcement that he is ordering our troops home from Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

Are you sitting down for this? Joe Biden is invoking a policy that mirrors one espoused by Donald John Trump!<\/em><\/p>\n

Recall that Trump bellowed during the 2020 campaign, and before, about he wanted to cease getting this country involved in “endless wars.” Well, his successor has followed that course. President Biden today announced our final contingent of troops will be out of Afghanistan no later than Sept. 11.<\/p>\n

So, this thought also occurs to me: Will there be a statement endorsing this policy decision announced by Joe Biden coming from his immediate predecessor?<\/p>\n

I know. You’re laughing out loud! In a way, I am snickering under my breath as I type these words. Hell, how can Trump endorse anything that President Biden does without ever even acknowledging that he was elected to the nation’s highest office?<\/p>\n

We might just have seen the weirdest joining of strange political bedfellows<\/em> in memory.<\/p>\n\n
