President Joe Biden finally publicly addressed the nation regarding the shocking fall of Afghanistan on Monday.
“The truth is this did unfold more quickly than anticipated,” Biden said during his speech at the White House.
Biden said he was willing to accept criticism for his decision, which he defended as the “right” course of action.
“I am president of the United States and the buck stops with me,” he said. “I’m deeply saddened by the facts we now face but I do not regret my decision to end America’s warfighting in Afghanistan.”
Biden began his speech by narrowing the goals in Afghanistan on counter-terrorism, noting that nation-building was never an achievable goal.
“Our mission in Afghanistan was never supposed to be nation-building, it was never supposed to be to build a unified, centralized democracy,” he said.

Did Biden say anything about the 10,000 or so Americans that are trapped
Nothing slips past ol’ laser-focus PedoJoe.
‘Quick perusal seems to indicate the networks were not impressed with the speech.’
Love your sarcasm.
Dems are always on the march to somewhere else when the bad things happen
Things move pretty quick Joe, might want to try and keep up.
Libtards in charge.
Not much was expected from you Dementia Joe.
You are special. Is today mystery malt Monday?
Go home and have some.
I would never follow the current CINC and I recommend no one else should either.
Dopey Joe ate pudding and it filled his diaper more quickly than he expected. Maybe why he skedaddled away in such a hurry from the press questions today.
but he always eats his ice-cream long before it melts
“Joe Biden Admits Afghanistan Collapse Happened ‘More Quickly’ than He Expected”
I suspect everything happens more quickly than Biden expects. An elevator door opens (whoosh) and people move out and in at high speed. Like a fast forward on a film. One moment someone is standing in front of Joe, Joe blinks and their gone. Another blink and someone else is there. It must be like sitting in a time machine watching the world change.
More quickly than expected means it was expected, and he didn’t give a shit.
Joe Biden murdered a nation.
He’s already the Supreme Leader of the US and issuing edicts to Joe.
Gonna say. Everything out of Joe’s mouth is a filthy lie.
So he DID expect it to collapse?
This guy now claims he is clueless about what was going on when he served in senior positions in the US Senate with access to the highest level intelligence information, then as Vice President, then now as President.
Joe Biden and the corporate press, Democrats, Neocons, and RINO’s vouched for his excellent experience and competence. After all he has been in Government for almost 50 years. He would not rock the boat.
The self proclaimed brilliant elitists said Joe would surround himself with brilliant people unlike President Trump. Joe knows. Well, I say Joe, his appointees and the press know but deliberately lie. They continually harm Americans, they can not be trusted.
“Joe Biden Admits Afghanistan Collapse Happened ‘More Quickly’ than He Expected”
Has he ever paid attention?
Back on July 8th, he said it was never going to happen.
Now, he says it happened more quickly than he expected.
Mmmmm-kayyyyy.....
