Nowhere to hide, Joe: President adopts fetal position as he crumbles under questioning and tries to blame Trump for Afghanistan catastrophe after 13 troops were killed along with 90 Afghans in ISIS bomb attacks
Daily Mail ^ | Aug. 26, 2021 | Geoff Earle

Joe Biden crumbled when confronted by reporters with the deaths of 13 troops and 90 people who were slaughtered at Kabul airport on Thursday by two ISIS bomb attacks in the latest tragic episode of his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.

The 78-year-old President was lost for words at times and and frustrated in others, gripping his notebook and widening his eyes while reporters from a pre-approved list asked him questions for about 30 minutes.

The press conference was at 5pm, nearly eight hours after the two blasts. Biden said nothing all day before the briefing.

When pressed, accepted responsibility for the violence but still stood by his decision to withdraw troops hastily while thousands of Americans remained in the country.

He then tried to blame it all on former President Donald Trump, who made the initial decision to withdraw.

Trump has since claimed the attacks on Thursday would not have happened on his watch, because ISIS and the Taliban were too afraid of the force he would use in retaliation. He has also slammed Biden's team for giving the Taliban a list of Afghan allies they said should be evacuated, calling it a 'kill list' for a group of terrorists who may end up killing them in revenge for their cooperation with the US in the war.

Biden has vowed to hunt down the killers responsible but in the meantime, he still has to get nearly 1,000 Americans out of the country before August 31 - a deadline the Taliban is insisting on.

He didn't know about the kill list when asked at the press conference, but said it 'could exist'.

As has become the norm for Biden, he was given a list of pre-approved journalists to call upon at the press briefing.

That “crumbling under questioning” is how most of the world saw it.

It was like a Witness for the prosecution melting under the relentless truth bombs of a Perry Mason type.
Questions where everyone listening already knows the truth.

Joe’s dementia may be faked to give him an excuse and elicit sympathy for the deliberate destruction of America.

What a disgusting excuse for a leader. I think the scumbag actually wanted to throw his binder at the reporters.

biden has humiliated the USA. It was part of his mission. Just as his former boss was ashamed of the USA, he is too. But joe is worse.
That image has been published throughout the world. The world knows that we have a wet noodle as Commander in Chief.

If nothing else Biden should definitively end the debate on whether Senators are good candidates for the Presidency. They are not. Biden spent nearly 50 years as one guy among 100, no personal responsibility for anything, able to say the DUMBEST things with no consequences, flip flop all over the place without anyone paying attention or noticing, doing all sorts of shady stuff and it all flying under the radar. In short: he was a typical US Senator.

Now he is President and everything he says is noticed, every time he lies someone points it out (not the media, of course, but still..), he is unable to rely on 99 other guys to help him out by hiding controversial issues to a committee where it's never heard from again. He is paralyzed because for the first time in his entire adult life (including his time as VP) he is expected to actually DO something, and do it right. And he has ZERO experience at that. Plus he's filled with dementia. But even with that said, as a Senator he simply has no experience leading anything so even in rare lucid moments he is lost and scared.

Never ever vote for a Senator for President unless they've done something else with their lives prior to that.

This would be valuable advice if we were ever to have the ability to elect a President again.

Pathetic. This is what it looks like when someone who doesn’t have God’s anointing to be the leader, pretends to be the leader.

Went to his lid room, cowered under a blanket and took out his coloring book; pudding later.

Joe just being Joe convinces more and more Americans every day — even the low-info types — that he’s a complete fraud.
