Ron Johnson bemoaning the "surrender" of Afganistan.

He does know that their Republican deal maker signed the paperwork to that surrender, right?

He's just enjoying criticizing the sausage making that the Democrats were left to figure out. That's the way it works, isn't it? Republicans sign the paperwork but leave the tough planning for the Democrats to execute. Which leaves the Republicans with plenty room to criticize since they always leave us with touch choices to make.

You are right. For all intents and purpose Johnson and 7 other Republican members of our government surrendered at the Kremlin to Putin on our Independence Day, July 4 2018. WTF were they doing there?!

The republicans only use them for grandstanding, nothing productive at all. They refuse to allow an answer because they know their lies are going to be called out.
