President Biden is facing a huge backlash for not taking any questions about the ongoing turmoil in Afghanistan following his coronavirus address to reporters.
As the world is watching the panicked withdrawal of Americans from the Taliban-controlled country, Biden focused his remarks on promoting the booster shot for COVID vaccines and mask mandates for children at schools while scolding Republican governors who oppose his agenda.
However, the president shocked the nation as he walked away from reporters after he concluded his speech.
"Wait!!! Timeout!!!! Did @POTUS leave without taking questions again?!?!? This isn't incompetent leadership... This is no leadership!!!!" Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., exclaimed.
"Watching President Biden's COVID remarks (instead of on Afghanistan) and have concluded that each speech will result in a net-negative instead of net-positive with the public. Too programmed. Too packaged. Too awkward. Takes no questions again, which looks weak and cowardly," Fox News contributor Joe Concha wrote.
"Oh my gosh he legitimately came out, talked for 15 minutes about a topic nobody is currently asking about, then leaves WITHOUT TAKING QUESTIONS. Unmitigated disaster," GOP strategist Matt Whitlock tweeted.
"Joe Biden again turns his back on Americans who want questions answered while he abandons Americans trapped by the Taliban. Shameful," Townhall.com editor Katie Pavlich reacted.

Institutionalized Democrat election fraud has consequences.
He should be facing removal.
Actually, he ignored Afghanistan and announced his intention to attack Florida and Texas instead.
I suspect he is. If he is not out by Labor Day, I’ll put money on him being gone by the end of the year.
Faces?
No. He’s basemented. He’s out. He never faced it. Never faced anything in his life

If they can try to impeach Trump over a phone call, we should be able to impeach Biden for leaving 10,000 Americans stranded in Afghanistan.— John D • (@RedWingGrips) August 18, 2021
"We have to consider Biden is no longer qualified to be commander-in-chief and Harris should not succeed him...[the Republicans] have to move to impeach both of them in January 2023," @FredFleitz tells Newsmax. https://t.co/VlT7z8v2lm pic.twitter.com/6UGlmxZZiO— Newsmax (@newsmax) August 18, 2021
Sure must be comforting to know these are rhe same people that have injected millions with an experimental vaccine. I’m sure they’ll have your back if something goes awry!
Why should he take questions while acting as the president when he’s actually NOT the president?
Yeah, stolen elections have very bad consequences indeed.
Unfortunately, he has an insurance policy- “President Kamala”.
He’s not going anywhere unless he dies. They love their puppet.
C’mon, Man, give Sleepy46 a break. He’s forgotten all about Afghanistan. If there were any questions about it, he would have no idea what they were talking about.
I doubt the American Presstitutes have a question worth asking or answering, they are Joe’s equal intellectually speaking
It was stolen fair & square.
Another fake speech I’m glad I skipped.
Oh give him a break...Afghanistan is so three days ago.
She is no deterrent. They can control that bowl of bisque Biden, they can control Kameltoe Harris.
He can’t handle unscripted questions. This isn’t a surprise.
Dictators don’t have to answer questions.
