He abandoned the Afghan people in their hour of need and sentenced them to an eternity of terrorist rule. The President&#8217;s decision also sets a bad precedent for current allies like Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, and Israel. Even the American people, who despise foreign wars, turned against the President as his approval ratings dropped below 50%, the lowest ratings Biden has seen in his short time in the White House. Whenever there&#8217;s a crisis, there&#8217;s always someone looking to make a buck off of it. <br \/><br \/><br \/>Governor Gavin Newsom praised Biden for withdrawing the troops from Afghanistan, saying how incredibly proud he was of the President. Yet Newsom&#8217;s kind words lack sincerity as the President and Vice President consider campaigning with Newsom in a bid to retain their grasp on California. So instead of trying to appeal to the voters, he&#8217;s busy sucking up to President Biden. <br \/><br \/>Biden stated on Twitter, &#8220;Gov. [Newsom] is leading California through an unprecedented crisis \u2013 he&#8217;s a key partner in fighting the pandemic and helping build our economy back better&#8230;To keep him on the job, registered voters should vote no on the recall election by 9\/14 and keep California moving forward.&#8221; While Newsom thinks Biden can help him get re-elected, remember that public opinion has not been in his favor since the fall of the embassy in Kabul. Thus, an endorsement from Biden could hurt Newsom&#8217;s electability, causing Democrats to lose their stronghold state. Let&#8217;s hope that the voters remember the fall of Kabul come 2024.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Image from: Gage Skidmore via Flickr<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by: Nathaniel Mannor President Biden&#8217;s handling of the Afghanistan War was disastrous.
