Tuesday on FNC’s “Fox & Friends,” House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) slammed President Joe Biden for his “lack of leadership” in his handling of withdrawing troops from Afghanistan.

McCarthy argued the Taliban’s takeover of the capital of Afghanistan, Kabul, “would have never happened under President Trump.” He added Biden’s withdrawal “causes problems for decades.

America had leadership.

Both parties conspired to get rid of him. Two impeachments. 1 stolen election.

Where is your leadership now?

Exactly. The Republicans in congress epitomize lack of leadership.

What a bold move McCarthy! Wait until Biden is criticized by both sides, test the prevailing winds, then try to gain some political points with your own criticism.

I can’t tell you how disgusted I am with the GOP. At least the Democrats have staked out their position as my enemy, and have made that well known. The GOP hates me, but wants my vote.

Had this cowardly leader in Congress fought for investigating the fraud that occurred at 3am the day after the election, we would never have had to deal with a lack of leadership in the Executive branch.

I say this about McCarthy. He has a beautiful tie collection, and gives special attention to the baby blues.

How about the “lack of leadership” in the deep state RINO’s, Kevin my boy?

I think it was botched big time but I don’t think it will be a problem for decades. At least not for us. A whole bunch of Afghanistan people will suffer for centuries.

Exactly. Biden and the democrats are committing the Mt. Everest of incompetent and harmful acts toward America. Yet they don’t seem worried at all that this might spell their doom.

Why is that?

Why is it that anytime anyone points out how harmful their acts are and how the American People disapprove the first thing out of their mouths is: “we have to get our election law passed.”

Inflation- “Election Law Passed’

Out of control border- “Election Law”

Covid restrictions, vax passports and masks- “Election Law must be passed.”

Wash, rinse, repeat.

The Republican’s response? “Election fraud is conspiracy theory advanced by those Trump cultists.”

Taliban advances in Afghanistan, government surrenders without a shot.

Democrats steal elections, GOP surrenders without a peep.

Parallels anyone?

McCarthy? He’s too busy dating the trojan pundit, Frank Luntz.

IMO, this entire debacle is at the feet of the Republicans who chose to stay silent before and after the election. Mitch MCConnell just congratulated Joe Biden last week for “putting together the BIPartisan infrastructure bill”. They know or have known Joe Biden for years and they turned their backs on Trump to get this fake, demented, lying con man in office and MCCarthy was right at the front of the Biden train.

Grahamnesty also criticized Biden’s lack of leadership, but quickly called Biden to explain he respects his actions and is just trying to keep the “radicals” happy.

About .001% of everything posted on FR actually matters.

This doesn’t even cause a ripple.

One thing for sure, Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), is a world class expert in Lack Of Leadership, ... he's right up there with Jao Xiden himself.

Who knows but that this wasn’t the plan of the uniparty from the start in their globalist agenda? Afghanistan is just a notch on their TO-DO list.
