After the tragic terror attacks in Kabul today, we are now venturing into extremely dangerous political waters that require wisdom, discipline, and strength... three attributes that our current American president is woefully lacking.
Yes, Joe Biden is a weak, narcissistic man. And he knows it. This is the danger.
When weak men want to prove to the world (literally to the world in this case) that they are not the weak men we all see that they are, there is a danger that they will present some grand gesture of strength to overcompensate for their weakness.
In the case of Joe Biden, this grand gesture of strength will be at the expense of young Americans who wear the uniform of our military. The very real danger right now is that this president will try to prove his courage and strength by exploiting the courage and strength of our troops by putting them in even greater danger than they already are due to this president's weakness.
Look at who Joe Biden is.
He is a weak man who likes to talk tough.
Remember when he tried to show how he'd take on Donald Trump as the Democratic Party's candidate? He was in the midst of a crowded primary for the nomination, and he needed to project strength. So how does a guy like Joe Biden do that?
Former Vice President Joe Biden said he would "beat the hell out of" President Donald Trump if they were in high school over his crude comments about women.
"When a guy who ended up becoming our national leader said, 'I can grab a woman anywhere and she likes it' and then said, 'I made a mistake,'" Biden said Tuesday of Trump, according to video of the remarks posted on Facebook by the University of Miami College Democrats.
"They asked me would I like to debate this gentleman, and I said no. I said, 'If we were in high school, I'd take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him,'" said Biden, getting laughter and applause from the crowd at the University of Miami.

Yeah... Biden's the tough guy, so he threatens to take Trump behind the gym and "beat the hell out of" him. This is what weak men do. They bluster. And Biden is such an obvious weakling that we all laughed about it.
Think about some of the other bizarre moments in Biden's recent past.
The infamous "Cornpop" rant. The entire bizarre,
rambling story was meant to project what a tough guy he is.
In Biden’s telling, CornPop was a “bad dude” who “ran a bunch of bad boys”, was armed with a straight-razor and backed by other gang members. And he was threatening to “cut” the future vice-president.
Instead of calling the police, Biden met CornPop and his cronies head on, having armed himself with a 6ft chain. After a standoff, CornPop backed down.
Do you see? Biden, the skinny white guy, confronted the bad dude who ran with a bad gang, and he made the scary black dude back down. Forget the inherent racist tropes built into Biden's yarn, the whole point is to project an image of Biden as the tough guy.
He does this all the time.
Remember when a voter in Michigan confronted him during the campaign? Biden's response was to tell the voter
he was "full of sh**" and called him "a horse's ass."
How about when he
called a voter a "damn liar" and challenged him to a push-up contest?
Time and time again throughout his career, Biden has defaulted to the faux tough-guy stance with over-the-top gritted teeth and threats of physical violence against a political foe to prove his point. It's become a joke, but only because we all know what a buffoon he is and how his tough-guy posturing doesn't square with his legacy as a weak man who will do what he is told and has never really shown personal strength in standing for anything.

This reflex to talk tough and threaten others is a revealing insight into the man's psyche and his instincts when backed into a corner. When his weakness is exposed, he reacts with over-the-top tough-guy language and threats of violence. It's how he always chooses to prove he's strong.
This is who Joe Biden is and always has been.
The only difference is that now he has the constitutionally granted powers of Commander-in-Chief to use our military to back up his empty threats and to project the strength that he doesn't have.
We must be wary of this.
America will instinctively and reflexively want to rally around any show of strength and retaliation that is framed as a response to these terror attacks. We must be wary that the response to these terrorists is about our dead Marines and the safety and security of Americans still in Afghanistan and not an egotistical reflex of a weak man who is backed into a political corner of his own making.
Weakness begets weakness, and poor decisions beget more poor decisions. Biden has always stood for one thing and one thing only: His own narcissistic political advancement. Until now, it was pathetic and pitiable. Now, it's deadly.
DPST Communist fools voted this fool in.
and when his imported Taliban terrorists come for you DPST fools - I told You So!
The vast majority of what Fiden imports from Afghanistan did not assist America - and are single male terrorist sleepers.
Fools!
