Just wanted to see what some of your guys thoughts were? This could be situational or a person.

Doug Collins for example would be one, he basically ran for Senate because of jealousy and ruined his career


I want to say the Steele Dossier is a blunder, but it never actually amounted to anything. The impeachments never did anything as well.

Both Obama and Biden made the exact same mistake: their choice of VP. Wouldn’t bite Obama in the arse until 12 years later since Biden was a mere seatfiller in his administration. As for Biden, he’s now exceeded this by withdrawing the troops before American civilians, our allies, our Afghan translators and their families, and our equipment. I think that may be the single dumbest move in American history.

Patriot Act.

Nothing else comes close. It changed the US forever. Irreparable damage. Irreparable loss of freedom.

Iraq.

Afghanistan nation building.

Hillary not focusing on the Midwest trying to rack up wins in places she didn’t need to win.

Trump not getting ahead of the mail in ballot debacle when it was obvious that was the dems strategy in the 2nd qtr of 2020.

RBG not retiring.

Bush invading Iraq. Bush staying in Afghanistan.

Biden’s pullout of Afghanistan to kill any faith in America beyond our borders.

Obama invading Libya and broad support for Arab spring destabilizing the region.

You mean it never had any negative consequences for the pieces of shite who created and used it, right? It absolutely amounted to a whole bunch of illegal activity and an attempted soft coup.

Obama and his husband were the worst things to happen to America until the pedophile Biden was sworn in.

No doubt about it. In normal times you would never hear the end of this on the news, or the errant fatal drone strike, but these times aren't "normal" in the traditional way.

This...is the New Normal.

Trump whining about mail in ballots instead of pivoting to having his ground game harvest as many ballots as possible.

Won't be well received here, but...

Trump signing the first omnibus bill was a monumental mistake. Until that point, he had played hardball and won. After that, the Uniparty knew they could back him into a corner on huge issues and get him to break.
