I was at a meeting this morning when a guy started goin on about being upset with the "clowns" running this Afghanistan thing. A few moments later, an old guy says, he was a Vietnam vet and he was damn glad this was ending, they were just getting people killed and a bunch of military companies were making a lot of money. I can practically guarantee the old vet did not vote for Biden. Yeah, anyone who actually cares is glad this is over. I can't find the link,, but better polling shows the slip in Biden's approval rating is tied to the rise of the delta variety and the worry about another lockdown. It's not about Afghanistan.
