The chaot­ic US with­draw­al is just the lat­est in a string of po­lit­i­cal crises the US pres­i­dent faces.

The par­ty is os­tracis­ing in­ter­nal Trump crit­ics like Liz Ch­eney, ce­ment­ing the idea that it’s Trump or bust for the GOP.

Out of of­fice and with­out so­cial me­dia, Trump’s voice at the mo­ment only echoes among his die-hard sup­port­ers.

While the US pres­i­dent is cur­rent­ly rid­ing high, his­to­ry shows that there are plen­ty of pit­falls that lie ahead.

It be­came a po­lit­i­cal flash­point last year; now, De­mo­c­ra­t­ic lead­ers refuse to en­ter­tain the no­tion.

US Pres­i­dent Joe Biden called for an end to ‘to­tal war’ in po­lit­i­cal de­bate. It is an elu­sive goal, even for him.

There are times when Amer­i­cans are con­cerned with the na­tion­al debt. Now is not one of them.

The US pres­i­dent takes ques­tions from re­porters on is­sues in­clud­ing mi­gra­tion, Chi­na, COVID vac­cines and vot­ing rights.

Af­ter every mass shoot­ing, gun con­trol sup­port­ers call for stricter fed­er­al laws, only to have their ideas side­lined.

The US pres­i­dent and his fel­low De­moc­rats hope the ef­fects of the re­lief pack­age re­sult in elec­toral suc­cess.
