Images of unrest and desperation at the international airport in Kabul, Afghanistan, spread across the world on Monday as the Taliban took the city and thousands of Afghans sought to flee.
The chaos brought widespread criticism of the U.S. withdrawal, but President Joe Biden said on Monday afternoon that he stood "squarely behind [his] decision" to begin formally pulling out troops in May.
Still, the U.S. exit poses a "real chance" of destroying the Biden presidency, Eurasia Group founder and political scientist Ian Bremmer tells Yahoo Finance Editor-in-Chief Andy Serwer in a new interview. The crisis could severely undermine Biden's standing if Americans die or are taken hostage while the U.S. completes its withdrawal, Bremmer said.
"There are a lot of Americans that we want to get out of there," Bremmer says. "What if we have a hostage crisis? What if we have a firefight? What if Americans get killed? What if we end up not being able to get all these Americans out? That destroys Biden's presidency."

Not a chance.
Half the population believes anything Chuck Todd tells them to believe.
Here’s the problem. The Rats are a team, not one person in particular. The person in White House really doesn’t matter all that much in the big scheme of things, it’s a package deal.
Trump, on the other hand, was just one man, who didn’t have a team behind him.
There are too many ‘Americans’ who hate those they feel superior to more than they love their country.
It will end it. Dems will no longer be able to whistle past the graveyard regarding Biden’s cognitive decline and they will take him out by the 25th. Listen for their PR department (aka the media) to start the whisper campaign next week.
Joe is vulnerable at the moment though. Lamestream media is attacking him for once. If the Taliban decides to capture hostages, it’s over for Joe.
That’s true.
Trump did not have a political party behind him.
Biden effectively has both political parties behind him. Not because they care about Joe, but they’re just all on the same team.
Right. But getting rid of Joe, won’t change much at all. The same people will be running the show as before.
They ARE superior because they have affirmative-action college degrees.
Flooding our country with infested illegal immigrants is worse and still happening.
There’s a Biden presidency? Who knew?
Which is why as of now, I prefer DeSantis, because he’s got a core of people he’s working with in Florida, he can bring to Washington with him.
In retrospect, what Trump should have done, when he started his 2016 campaign, was start lining up the people who would work for him, instead of waiting until he was in office. That was his achilles heel.
The Uniparty promotes those who put America last.
The same OLD people will be running the show as before.
And I mean OLD!
The rats are Liars and Thieves. Those who lie, can never make the pieces fit. No matter how smart they think they are.
Eventually they are exposed. That is why they are Totalitarians. There is no other way for them to stay in power. And they are EVIL! They serve the wrong master.
Heels Up is not part of their plan to replace Plugs.
There is someone else in the wings to take power.
I am still leaning towards the Hildabeast.
But here’s something interesting to think about.
In the Democratic Party, there are basically two factions: The Obama Faction and The Clinton Faction. The Obama Faction as of now is in charge, but with these screwups, the Clinton Faction may reassert themselves, and if Biden leaves, they may force Kamala to take Hillary as VP. And you know what will happen after that.
Yep.
He wont go out by the 25th.
They will do to him like what happened to JFK.
Then use that for gun control.
