Methodical Madness

 Though this be madness, yet there is method in't’.

~ William Shakespeare, Hamlet II:2


With the horrifying collapse of Afghanistan, I think many Americans feel the need to reevaluate the conditions and intentions of our current executive branch of government. I often hear that Joe Biden is a front man who is not calling the shots, and maybe that's true. Many people contend that he's demented, confused, unaware of what's happening around him.

After the travesty that has unfolded over the past few days, I'm not so sure. This man is cold-blooded. Today he scornfully waved off the widespread panic and human carnage at the Kabul airport as having happened "four...five days ago." Don't go dredging up the past, man. This guy has moved on.

I find it strange that every international agreement President Trump had made needed to be broken except for the Afghanistan one. The halt to the remain in Mexico policy at our southern border, canceling the Keystone Pipeline and rejoining the Paris Climate agreement, reviving the Iran deal and stopping our withdrawal from the World Health Organization were all top priorities for Biden. He couldn't dismantle Trump's work of four years fast enough. But when it came to Afghanistan, he "inherited a deal"? I'm not buying it.

Every single action Biden has taken since his first day in office has caused damage to everyday, hard-working, law-abiding Americans. The increase in crime, lawlessness, inflation, taxes, gas and grocery prices, and the ongoing debacle on the border are all directly traceable to Biden's terrible policies. Illegal aliens infected with COVID are being flown and bused all over our country--without IDs, without masks. Yet  American citizens are lectured daily about vaccinations and now booster shots.

So much of what has been happening since Biden took office seems as though there is a plan in place to take the country down, to collapse what's left of our institutions into chaos. It makes me wonder if all the parents rising up against CRT at local school boards was slowing down the plan's progress. Were there too many independent Americans having the unmitigated gall to assert their Constitutional and parental rights? Well, that could be fixed. Let Afghanistan implode, and watch America's values and prestige in the world fall into the bloody dust. The wheels of society can fall off that much more quickly and easily now.

So you didn't like mean tweets? Neither did I. But at least Trump was on America's side.
