A weak America threatens everyone’s security
In August, the UK Parliament voted for the first time in history to formally hold the President of the United States in contempt! They called President Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan “shameful.” The UK Parliament’s displeasure was not that we withdrew from Afghanistan. The UK was unhappy about how incompetently the withdrawal was performed and how poorly it was communicated. Biden’s withdrawal blindsided the UK as well as France and our other NATO allies. Prime Minister Boris Johnson attempted to contact President Biden as the Afghan capital was being overrun by the Taliban, but Biden reportedly did not return Johnson’s call until 36 hours later.
Only a few weeks later, France recalled its ambassador to the United States for the first time ever over a different dispute that scuttled their deal to sell submarines to Australia. France said the actions constitute “unacceptable behavior between allies and partners, whose consequences directly affect the vision we have of our alliances.” This unprecedented action and harsh words are coming from our longest ally. France fought on our side in the
Revolutionary War!
Candidate Joe Biden promised to restore our historic partnerships, and many of our allies openly cheered when Joe Biden became president. They looked forward to a return to the good old days where they could take advantage of the United States. However, Biden’s string of disasters and his administration’s incompetence has changed their mood. Our allies are learning the hard way that elections have consequences. A weak America threatens everyone’s security!
