#410 – Ben Shapiro vs Destiny Debate: Politics, Jan 6, Israel, Ukraine & Wokeism

For foreign policy, I mean, blemishes. I mean, the biggest one you can give to Biden is Afghanistan in the poll out there. But man, are we going to talk about the Inspector General report that says that one of the biggest reasons why the Afghanistan poll was so disastrous was because of the Doha Accords, where Donald Trump headed talks that didn't even include the

Biden took office, we had 2,500 troops left in Afghanistan. What was the options even afforded to Biden at that point? Obviously, you've got the abandonment of the Kurds in northern Syria for the Turkish armies to lay waste to. You're talking about Iran and North Korea, although I'm not sure we're...

#410 – Ben Shapiro vs Destiny Debate: Politics, Jan 6, Israel, Ukraine & Wokeism

I'm going to try to be concise when I say this. Broadly speaking, especially in studying Israel-Palestine and Ukraine-Russia, I try not to take politicians at their word because sometimes they just say stuff to say stuff. I understand that. But broadly speaking, I'm going to look at the rhetoric and the actions, and I am going to grade them the same.

One thing that I would ask you about that, though, is I agree, especially when you look at the favorability. But sometimes when I look at these polls, when you start to disaggregate them by party, I wonder if it's actually is Biden historically divisive or I'm trying to think of a really polite way to say this.
