Biden has been wrong for 50 years and this won’t ruin that record.

Isn’t it nice to know that no matter what, the Press will always be on your side?

it’s already been bungled. but it was Joe and BHO who pushed us deeper into Afghanistan - with no plan to win - so no surprise there. withdrawing without notifying allies and giving the Taliban an easy walk in - incompetence personified.

Trump should have not only fired him but had him Court Martialed.
