Journal by DeathMonkey

President Joe Biden will announce an end Thursday to U.S. support for a grinding five-year Saudi-led military offensive in Yemen that has deepened human suffering in the Arabian peninsula’s poorest country, national security adviser Jake Sullivan said.

    DeathMonkey's quote: "President Joe Biden will announce an end Thursday to U.S. support for a grinding five-year Saudi-led military offensive in Yemen"

    We're one month into 2021. Subtract 5 years, and that puts us 1 month into 2016. That was about when the primary elections for the 2016 election were starting. Trump and Hillary hadn't even collected enough primary votes to secure the nominations. Obama was still president.

    DeathMonkey consistently, without fail, paints the republicans as 100% pure evil. He is almost as reliable painting the democrats as pure good, but sometimes he wishes for more communism than they deliver.

    Here the implication is that Orange Man Bad because of... probably racism or stealing oil or something. (to use democrat terms, DeathMonkey used a dogwhistle) DeathMonkey failed to do the math. His beloved Obama was president when the war started.
