Laurene Powell Jobs’ Atlantic Magazine Says ‘Biden Deserves Credit, Not Blame’ for Deadly Afghan Evacuation

Atlantic magazine, owned by billionaire widow of Steve Jobs, Laurene Powell Jobs, published an essay Monday congratulating President Joe Biden for the Afghan evacuation that has thus far left 13 U.S. service members dead and numerous amounts of military gear in the hands of the Taliban terrorists.

“If anything, Americans should feel proud of what the U.S. government and military have accomplished in these past two weeks,” Jobs’ publication claimed. “President Biden deserves credit, not blame.”

Jobs’ magazine praised the deadly evacuation as “one of the most extraordinary logistical feats in their recent history” by pointing to the number of extractions Biden failed to conduct months before the Taliban-enforced deadline of August 31.

“By the time the last American plane lifts off from Hamid Karzai International Airport on August 31, the total number of Americans and Afghan allies extricated from the country may exceed 120,000,” the essay said, referencing the 13 dead U.S. service members that “didn’t deter the military.”

Upon acknowledging the deaths of U.S. service members, the article gave Biden credit for the military’s heroic actions by suggesting Biden was steadfast in his decision making, “And he did so even as his critics again sought to capitalize on tragedy for their own political gain.”

I think some people just are living in their own reality, and factor in the tribalism in poltics this is what you get.

It was a brilliant plan, executed to perfection — if you are rooting for the Islamic terrorists. For our side, not so brilliant.

Biden is like the captain of a luxury liner who sails it straight into an iceberg, and this dipsh!t thinks he deserves credit for the crewmembers getting people into lifeboats.
