U.S. House Rep Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ), who was previously elected as a Democrat in 2018, only to reverse course to support Trump and become a Republican and was re-elected in last year’s election, called for the resignation of top Democrats following the Afghanistan pullout debacle.
In an appearance on Fox News’ “Sunday Night in America,” Van Drew was asked by host Trey Gowdy, “How did we get to this point in Afghanistan?”
Van Drew responded, “My God, it is one of the darkest, most embarrassing days we’ve had in our country, and it’s a tremendous embarrassment for the Biden administration.”
“With this administration it is failure after failure after failure. Honest to God, I cannot believe I’m saying this, it literally is time for this president to resign. It is time for this vice president to resign. It is time for the Senate president and Speaker to resign. We need new people, even new Democrats, hopefully that are moderates. We can’t keep doing this,” Van Drew declared.
Van Drew also released a statement on Sunday about the situation:
“President Biden’s decision to simply hand Afghanistan back to the Taliban after almost twenty years to the day since the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001, will go down as one of the most shocking and embarrassing failures of leadership in American history,” Van Drew said in the statement.
Van Drew continued, “It is a slap in the face to not only our NATO allies and the Afghan people who stood shoulder to shoulder with us in the fight for Freedom, but to the thousands of Americans and coalition forces who sacrificed their lives and limbs to defeat the Taliban and liberate Afghanistan in the first place.”
“Whether it is China, Russia, North Korea, or Iran – friend and foe alike are taking notice of the Biden Administration’s weakness and will only be emboldened in the days, weeks, and months to come,” Van Drew concluded.
Now today, according to The Sun, China has warned Taiwan that they “can’t rely” on America in a crisis. which certainly backs up Van Drew’s words.
