   Maybe if he added his creepy whispery voice ---  No one at the helm weeeeee--- 
   
   Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels fired an anti-ship ballistic missile at a Marshall Islands-flagged, U.S.-owned and operated container ship called the M/V Gibraltar Eagle, the U.S. military and the vessel's operator said Monday, as the rebel group continued its assault on global shipping in the Red Sea. There were no injuries or significant damage reported on the civilian vessel, but the missile caused an inconsequential fire in the ship's hold, the vessel's operator said.
   
   "Earlier in the day, at approximately 2 p.m. (Yemen local time), U.S. Forces detected an anti-ship ballistic missile fired toward the Southern Red Sea commercial shipping lanes," the U.S. military's Central Command said in a statement posted to social media, which also confirmed the attack on the cargo ship. The earlier missile "failed in flight and impacted on land in Yemen. There were no injuries or damage reported."

      Attack on Ft. Sumter in 1861, should we have removed Lincoln from his job on account of that?
      
      We can talk about the sinking of the  "Maine" 1898, should we have removed President McKinley?
      
      Perhaps the USS Arizona in 1941, should we have removed FDR?
      
      How about the Hizballah attack on Marines and sailors in Lebanon in 1983, during Reagan's watch, killing 240? Nobody was talking about his stepping down as Commander and Chief.....

         I appreciate the compelling examples you provided, showcasing presidents adept at addressing dynamic challenges through decisive decision-making. Both leaders demonstrated strength and a proactive approach to prevent escalating issues. In contrast, it seems that Biden has been overlooking problems he may have played a role in creating, allowing them to worsen over time, including the current Red Sea situation.
         
         How in the world are you not realizing the mess this man has made in a short three years?   He has caused such turmoil. What Next?

            It is easy, Sharlee all I have to do is compare Biden with his predecessor then and now, under those circumstances, the choice is quite easy for me anyway.

                  But you calmly sat by for four years + watching Trump dismantle the structure of our country, piece by piece, and that's all just fine and dandy.

   A U.S. ship gets attacked by foreign rebels, and your knee-jerk reaction is to remove the country's commander in chief?  These partisan threads are getting more ridiculous.

      It's important to recognize that the current challenge has led the majority of ships to opt for longer and significantly more expensive routes to avoid potential threats from a few terrorists. The Houthi attacks have compelled commercial ships to take a lengthier and costlier journey around Africa, sparking concerns about potential inflation and disruptions in the supply chain. Container shipping rates for vital global routes have surged this week.
      
      I can't help but find it noteworthy that you don't attribute this situation to Biden. From my perspective, Biden's failure to respond decisively and halt Houthi aggression in the Red Sea has contributed to the problem. This marks a historical moment where nations may no longer consider that route as relatively safe. 
      
      It appears that appeasement has only empowered terrorists, leaving many nations, including the US, in a state of apprehension. On a somewhat positive note for the upcoming election, the avoidance of the Red Sea due to its increased risk may lead to rising inflation and scarcity of products. Interestingly, this might work in favor of the candidate I support.
      
      Hey, keep them coming, Joe.

         So like that candidate that MAGA supports, they want misery for the United States, as long as it helps them politically.  This is why many think of the MAGA movement as selfish and traitorous.

            Speaking solely on my behalf, I'm willing to endure additional challenges if it contributes to a stronger America in 2024. After all, we've been grappling with inflation for the past three years, and a little more persistence might be the key to improvement. It's not about selfishness; it's about seeking a brighter future for our nation.
            
            I have had to endure misery under Biden, and I am willing to endure whatever more I may need to, if it leads to a Republican winning in Nov. Hey, I am sure of one thing --- Joe will not disappoint, he will surely be responsible for bigger problems to come.

               I think a theme of MAGA is being miserable unless they get their way.  It doesn't have much to do with Biden.  And when Trump goes down in 2024, we can expect four more years of listening to that misery.

         "From my perspective, Biden's failure" - same song. Second verse. But Trump can do no wrong - 90 indictments aside.
