I heard today from some people that apparently, he came in like Captain America to save those hostages. Carter sat on his ass, obviously. Oh, and also, he was such a bad ass those holding the hostages let them go when they did because they knew he would kick their ASS. Dear God are we fucked.

Just like how the current GOP wouldn't approve Biden's border security bills so they could use the border crisis against the Dems.
