Maybe the president of China told Joe he’s not allowed to leave Afganistan.

It must be fun having a US president under your thumb after purchasing his son.

This has got to be fake news. Just a few weeks ago the President of the United states said this would never happen.

Twitter, Google and Facebook need to ban this story as disinformation. Hopefully, Psaki can get on this today and erase this story.

Our boys must be really confused here.
Are you withdrawing or deploying ?
I get the logistics, but this is a fiasco.
3,000 troops will be over run by Taliban as they
march to Kabul by Labor Day.....as I see it.

President Biden, July 8, 2021: “The likelihood there’s going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely.”

Beijing Biden and Susan really have a pulse on the situation. WTF ?

I have a plan.

Send General Milley to lead an on-foot evacuation of the Americans in Kabul to Jalalabad. They can rest at Gandamak, where Milley can give talks on white rage and transgenderism(I understand he is an expert).

Give him a diverse and inclusive brigade for escort. Call it the Elphinstone Brigade.

What could go wrong?

Where was the air cover to stop the Taliban’s march to take over?

Same place the air cover was to stop ISIS in Iraq. The convoys going across the desert were observed - nothing done. The build up / staging areas outside the cities where they were preparing their invasions were viewed - nothing done. Likely the similar thing was done in Afghanistan...just watching the Taliban troops march when they could have been stopped in their tracks.

Biden was behind both of these debacles - and he said back in 2009 that it was foolish to believe something like that would happen in Iraq...then when it did happen, did nothing to stop it at a stage when it would have been easy without allowing a single city to fall.

As has been said before, Biden has been wrong about every major foreign policy position he has taken throughout his entire political career - with disastrous consequences.

A phased pullout has turned into a debacle because the Taliban know what would have happened if they’d crossed Trump and they know equally well that nothing will by crossing Biden. The Dems want this to just go away so they can get back to “transforming” America into...well, it looks like into Afghanistan, doesn’t it?
