Trump on Biden’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal: America has been 'humiliated'
FOX Business ^ | August 31, 2020 | Talia Kaplin

Former President Trump slammed President Biden’s botched U.S. troop withdrawal from Afghanistan, telling "Varney & Co." during an exclusive interview on Tuesday that America has been "humiliated."

He argued that "the single worst decision ever made in our country’s history" is for the U.S. "to go to the Middle East."

Trump said that the Biden administration cannot do "a simple withdrawal from a country that we should have never gotten into in the first place."

"The level of incompetence on this withdrawal is even far greater than the level incompetence at the southern border," Trump said, adding that "what’s happened to our country in the last eight months is a disgrace."

He also argued that Biden "owes an apology" to the American people and the world.

The former president made the comments the morning after the Pentagon announced that all U.S. troops have departed Afghanistan. The final C-17 carrying service members lifted off from the Kabul airport at 3:29 pm U.S. Eastern Time on Monday.

The removal of U.S. troops meets the Aug. 31 deadline the Biden administration agreed to with the Taliban, officially drawing the country's longest-ever conflict to an end.

But the fate of those left behind remains a mystery, with White House press secretary Jen Psaki confirming earlier on Monday that a "small number" of Americans who want to leave remain in the country.

CENTCOM Commander Gen. Kenneth McKenzie acknowledged, "We did not get everybody out that we wanted to get out."

The general added that the ISIS threat to the operation was "very real" until the end, with "overwhelming" U.S. airpower circling overhead in an attempt to prevent further attacks.

What a despicable pile of BS.

Of course, I don’t mean just what he said.

The only thing that was an “Extraordinary Success” was his ability to read from the teleprompter.

It's proof that Bathhouse Barry is involved because that's how Hussein pronounces Taliban along with pronouncing Pakistan as Pockeystahn.

Concur. There were other key phrases used by Potato-Head that were identical to the ObuttHolio dayz.

We are indeed living through ObuttHolio 3.0.

“He” is an unreferenced pronoun in your text. Trump or Biden?

It is not America that has been humiliated, it is woke socialism and its many wrong-headed world views, so the task is to recover control of the nation and place it under a better form of government.

I think the soap box and ballot box options are non starters, unfortunately. FEDGOV seems to want to destroy the Constitution, the US, and of all of US. They’ve looted the Treasury, so the useful idiots think they have earned a lifetime pension just like the sociopaths in DC. Do we have the stomach for this fight? Can we draw from the lessons of WWII versus the worm tongue lessons of Viet Nam and afterwards? Do we salt the Earth of the vanquished if necessary as was done in Carthage?

We are indeed living through ObuttHolio 3.0>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Why are the pundits silent on this reality?

Biden knew the Taliban were taking over, and he knew Pakistan was providing logistic support and intel as well as ocasional air cover for the Taliban.

The president of Afghanistan asked for intel and air support. Biden refused.Biden knew tha Taliban wouod take over.It was no surprise. Joe was counting on it.

Why f**k around with these CRT a$$hats ( Biden , Susan Rice, Jarrett, Obama)who believe that America is a White Supremacist country engaged in coloniial adventures in Afghanistan , along with NATO White Supremacist colonial allies? America and its allies must be PUNISHED!Joe is tha man to do it. This is the true story of the CRT subversion and treason of America , by arming the Taliban with 62 billion dollars of military ordnance.

Based on the historical “apologist for America” exhibited constantly by both Obama and Biden since about 2009 WHY NOT JUST SAY THE TRUTH.

Biden used this situation purposefully to arm and recognize a terrorist organization supported by Pakistan and China . Obama, Joe and Hillary did the same in Bengazi, only that grift was screwed up royally thanks to a few Navy Seals, some who gave their lives.

This way of withdrawing from Afghanistan was an exercise in grift and treason for the purpose of historical justice, America has exploited too many black , brown and yellow people, you see. Blinken even knuckled under to China when he first met with them on the issue of Interantional Human Rights.

And Biden , Blinkin and others should not only be impeached for these crimes, they should be subject to a Congressional order of electoral decertification and recall to void everything Joe has done, the evidence is in those 5 swing states in order for Congress to do so.

No President is Mr. Biden, he is alligned with both China and Pakistan, thanks to his graft and corruption via his son Hunter.

Or maybe Biden needs to attend the soccer stadium in Kabul to participate as a subject to the tender mercies of the Taliban in taking Biden’s head. Its theirs anyway.

Thats a show I would gladly watch.”Taliban Behead Joe Biden.” They have already done so figuratively.

America rejects Biden as president and wants to leave him behnd in Afghaniztan. just like Joe did with so many others, even his own rescuer/translator.Most Americans would not cross the street to piss on Joe Biden even if he was on fire.

We’ve been ‘humiliated’ since Roe v Wade.

The chickens are now coming home to roost.
