Article Excerpt: Watch the new ad for this sorry POS Biden, that abandoned our troops in Afghanistan. He protects the borders of Ukraine, depleting our weapon stores and spending billions of our tax dollars on their protection while our country is destroyed by his foreign invasion of our country by unvetted illegals. He has shut down our petroleum industry making our Saudi and Russian enemies wealthier with high cost dirtier oil products, increasing our energy costs exponentially.
