CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 20,2021
IF YOU ARE A LIBERAL DEMOCRAT THE MAJOR MEDIA WILL BOOST YOUR
CANDIDACY AND WHEN YOU WIN, IGNORE YOUR FAILURES AND ASK YOU SOFTBALL
QUESTIONS.
WHEN THEY START ASKING REAL QUESTIONS AND DOUBTING YOUR ANSWERS,
YOU ARE IN TROUBLE.
PRESIDENT BIDEN’S MISHANDLING OF THE AFGHANISTAN WITHDRAWAL HAS NOT
ONLY BROUGHT HIM CRITICISM AND REAL QUESTIONS FROM THE MEDIA, HIS
APPROVAL NUMBERS IN THE MOST RECENT POLLS HAVE FALLEN UNDER 50 PERCENT.
USUALLY THIS IS LIKE BLOOD IN THE WATER TO MEDIA SHARKS. WE’LL SEE IF THE
SHARKS START CIRCLING. DONALD TRUMP’S POLICIES WERE WORKING, BUT THE
MEDIA GAVE HIM NO CREDIT. BIDEN’S HAVE FAILED. PICTURES OF DESPERATE AFGHANS
TRYING TO FLEE THE COUNTRY DOMINATE OUR TV SCREENS. PEOPLE ARE SHOT AND
BEATEN; WOMEN ARE ATTACKED FOR NOT WEARING BURKAS.
STATEMENTS COMING FROM THE PENTAGON AND STATE DEPARTMENT ARE
RIDICULOUS. THEY HAVE BEEN TOLD WHAT TO SAY AND THEY WANT TO PRESERVE
THEIR CAREERS.
CONGRESSIONAL HEARINGS MAY BEGIN NEXT WEEK. REPUBLICANS WILL ASK
TOUGH QUESTIONS. IF DEMOCRATS DO, TOO, WE’LL KNOW BIDEN IS IN REAL TROUBLE.
