'That was four or five days ago!' Biden snaps at George Stephanopoulos for mentioning photos of Afghans falling from planes in Kabul and suggests there's no way America could have gotten out 'without chaos ensuing'

President Joe Biden angrily defended his handling of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, saying on Wednesday that chaos was unavoidable and snapping when asked about horrific images of Afghans falling from planes.

'That was four days ago, five days ago,' he said, even though the images of people falling to their deaths emerged on Monday.

The combative moment came during an interview with former Clinton White House official George Stephanopoulos for ABC News.

Biden has avoided taking questions on the Afghanistan crisis for more than a week.

The White House has been on the defensive for weeks as Taliban fighters raced across the country.

And officials have struggled to explain how they failed to forecast the rapid fall of Kabul and to account for chaotic scenes at the city's airport as the embassy was evacuated.

Biden hollered fire in a crowded theater, started this s-—storm, and he sits there and says it was 4-5 days ago, like everything’s just fine now...

[jmacusa]

It's a condition called ‘’senior agitation’’. Saw lots of elderly people react like this when I worked in nursing homes.

Gets worse over time. Even with medication. And if we have a president who is either on or going to be on psychotropic medication that would make him medically unfit to be president.

I think the technical term for what we’re seeing play out now is “shit show”.

[luvie]

Chaos “was priced into the decision” agrees BiteMe when talking about his “handling” the Afghan situation? Un-freakin-believable!!

I nearly went up in smoke when I heard that. If I could have gotten my hands around his demented scrawny neck............

[luvie]

It’s what people with dementia do.

[luvie]

AND now he's off to Delaware because "he hasn't slept well for the past few days". Well...

[fella]

“At this point in time, what possible difference can it make.”

Or words to that effect.

[Republican Wildcat]

Her debacle in her on stage debut with the border made her damaged goods...they probably want to continue propping up Biden after seeing that.

[Elsie]

I look for Harris...

So is everyone else!

Where is Kamala???

[Elsie]

What's your caption say?

[Elsie]

Joe is one “mean tweet” away from a palace revolt.

[Eleutheria5]

That you saw it and liked it is icing on the cake.

[SunkenCiv]

Don't worry, I'm sure it will all work out fine. All the Afghans who worked with and for us will be abandoned to near-certain death, and unvetted Afghan terrorists will be evac'd right straight into our neighborhoods, then supplied with weapons, at the same time the Demagogic Party tries to destroy the firearms industry in the US and disarm American citizens.

[Does so]

Our government is being run from Kolorama, DC.

[GOPJ]

George Stephanopoulos knew Biden was in mental decline 10 months ago when he was pushing for Biden’s election.

Seems democrat thugs are preparing us for the new lie.... the next violent incompetent they want us to accept (or else) for President.

[Elsie]

...unvetted Afghan terrorists will be evac'd right straight into our neighborhoods...

In MY neighborhood, we have arms to welcome them with.

[a real Sheila]

Um, you got a typo there

[patriot torch]

The only question now is, will his own party deep six him or trigger the 25’th?

Either way, joe and da hoe got to goe!
