“He blames the Afghans for not fighting and he blames Trump for withdrawing, and then says we should have withdrawn all along because it was all joe’s idea. Guy is all over the map.”

Good observation.

He is the consummate demagogue.

“I’ll bet plenty of people ate it right up. Prepare for the accolades from the MSM to come.

It was far better than I expected from him; someone very bright scribed that one. “

It really is genius at empty platitude and demagoguery.

Exploiting, usurping, manipulating. Diabolical.

nd the diplomatic failing, the US negotiator Khalilzad, he seemed to take everything from the Taliban on trust, that the Taliban would negotiate with Ghani -- there was no negotiation. It's taken everyone by

The Democratic Party believes in unicorns. They’ve gotten away with this for a long time because no matter what they do or say, they are defended by the propaganda media and the oligarchs of big tech.

Is abandoning Bagram Air Base several weeks before evacuating the Embassy and civilian personnel in Afghanistan who have helped us the biggest screw up of the Biden “plan”? Anyone who has seen videos of the chaos at the Kabul airport could tell you that Biden should have kept an air base with a hardened perimeter until all the civilians had been evacuated.

Instead Bagram airbase was abandoned in the middle of the night without even informing the Afghan military. Bagram Air Base should have been evacuated last, allowing us to take action against the Taliban for any moves they made that went against the agreement

Somehow Biden thinks we’re ‘still withdrawing’ from Afghanistan. Is that what you call it?

Some "droppings" from a plane leaving Afghanistan according to India Today. Biden can BS all he wants but he really can't make people unsee these videos.

I do not believe the person who gave this speech is actually Joe Biden.

It simply does not look or act like him.

Biden will pumped up on whatever Meds can keep him functional for the time.

I do not believe that the man who gave this speech is in fact Joe Biden. I have previously felt this, it's not first the time. (beginning with his nominations acceptance speech).

Thought I saw online that VP would be standing behind him during speech. Didn’t happen. 25th amendment territory?

Someone should remind SloJoe that over the course of the 20 years we’ve been in Afghanistan, the greatest number of U.S. fatalities - by far, approx 64% - occurred in just the first 4 years of the Obama/Biden administration.

She is and Joe’s enabler.
