I am going to break this into two parts: What I agreed with and what I disagreed with.
Agreed With:
Yes, quality health care should be a right, not a privilege. Also, yes, we can or I should say could afford it, by not waging war on every country that says no to Israel. Or refuses to give us access to their oil for practically nothing.
During the scam-demic, millions have lost their lively hoods. We have fuel trucks that need drivers. Last year when the government shut the country down meant that no one was really traveling during the summer. That also put drivers out of work. Here is something I didn’t know before a couple of days ago, drivers who haul gas need an additional set of skills that drivers who move radios across the country don’t need. I had suspected but didn’t know for sure.
President talked about the rash of domestic violence. This is a touchy subject for me because of my own experience. He was right there are women killed every month by their partners. He didn’t mention the men who are also killed by their partners.
I do agree that the supremacist mindset is toxic and must stop. I have a daughter that is part Mexican and white. I get it.
Disagreed With:
The idea that he was saying in one breath we need to come together and weed out white supremacists is laughable at best. He didn’t include other forms of supremacist mindset. It’s not just white people who have a supremacist mindset. It’s in every race. But that’s not cool to think about or say. I don’t care. The supremacist mindset is toxic regardless of who is exhibiting it.
He talked about how Russia compromised our voting! Bullshit… No, they didn’t. There is no actual evidence to support it. This isn’t a democratic country. Hasn’t been in a long time. If we are a democratic country why are we forcing it on Afghanistan? That goes against the word itself. He certainly filled his minion’s heads full of bullshit than he will all year. We went into Afghanistan based on a lie and we have lost so many soldiers. The same can be said for the situation in Iraq.
As of October of this year, we have been in Afghanistan for 20 years. And people wonder how did China get so far ahead of us. That’s probably one of the stupidest questions you can ask anyone. That got so far ahead of us military-wise because we have been chasing ghost enemies of Isreal. And make no mistake, they are the only ones who have benefited from us being there. The Afghanistan citizens are no better off today than they were 20 years ago today. As a matter of fact, if you were to Google pictures of women from the 1960s in Afghanistan and women today you will see a dramatic difference. In the last twenty years alone we have degraded Afghanistan Women into being nothing but property. No! We have not helped them at all. As a matter of fact, I would say our democracy has made life more miserable for women in Afghanistan and Iraq along with the Middle East in general.
In closing, I say this, China has not stolen anything from our country. The agreements between American Tech Companies and China’s Government are mutually beneficial. Not saying the Chinese people have benefited. Not at all. Their lives were made miserable. Russia didn’t interfere with our elections. They have other matters to deal with. Like military drills on the Crimean and Ukrainian border.
Iran and Syria are the poster of self-restraint. I can say they are the poster child of self-restraint because I would have reunified Palestine a long time ago. There wouldn’t have been an Israeli government after they attacked the USS Liberty in an attempt to pull us into their war with Eygpt. And North Korean leader is not dead. He came out over the last few days to respond to Biden’s comments during his speech.
