“And he’s going to get away with it... “

I agree. The dumb masses have the attention span of a gnat. They will forget how bad this mess is, go back to their phones, and the media will push the lie. Before you know it, the dumb masses will agree, Biden is some kind of genius.

Xoe Xiden is the most incompetent boob to hold the presidency since Obama, yet with every (intentional) mistake he and Democrats find someone else to shift blame to for their Afghanistan disaster. I watched a video on a WaPo piece claiming Americans are to blame for service member deaths, and you can check it out at Whatfinger News in crawler link top of page. The buck doesn’t stop with Biden, it goes around him as if he were shielded. Every day the Usurper in Chief remains in office the weaker America gets.

"And he’s going to get away with it. The press is already gushing about his “leadership” and the generals are coming out to support him."

Strongly-worded lies. And blaming Trump several times...

He is trying to hear himself speak over the sound of Obama’s voice in the earpiece he has worn for almost 2 years now. Biden is the puppet.

They upped his dementia drugs to get him to show some spunk. I expect he’ll put a lid on things for a few days for recovery.

Biden is leading us...from one disaster to another. He is also leading us...to record levels of third worlders invading the USA.

Those soldiers died 4-5 days ago. C’mon man, move on already.

I read this as him saying that this WAS the best of their ability.

Which is even scarier....

Sadly, by tomorrow, the MSM will be all excited about this. Even this morning, they were chirping about how it was a great thing to be out of “the longest war”.

“When Joe’s best buds the Tallybamd start skinning trapped Americans alive what will “

it was their fault for not showing up before the last plan left ... they’ve already been saying that for a while ...

Suffered through this, thoughts:

1. He needs to stop selling the idea that we had to get out of Afghanistan. NO KIDDING Joe, what is angering many is not the intent to leave - but rather your horrible execution of it.

2. He needs to stop with blaming his ‘predecessor’. Joe forgets that as commander in chief / leader of the free world - YOU can set terms with the enemy. YOU can define when and how we leave. Instead, you act like they have leverage over the United States of America.

3. He could/should have set the exit date as conditional on events or whenever we damn well thought we would be ready. Setting a formal date set was a driver for this clusterF and put lives at risk.

4. To put a fine point on it - he failed to have a plan that got America out without chaos and loss of life. Those 13 soldiers are on Biden.

5. He should have NEVER closed Bagram, instead he relied on the unsecured Karzai airport - controlled by the enemy as our exit point. Both should have been exit points FULLY controlled by our armed forces.

6. He put America and our allies at risk by equipping our enemy with $90B of military supplies. You enabled China and others to collect our tools of war and determine how to replicate or take advantage of them.

7. He needs to stop this whisper talk schtick. Talk like a man.

8. He needs to apologize to the parents that received their loved ones at Dover.

9. He should face the press and take UNSCRIPTED questions. If he’s incapble of doing so, he should resign.

10. He should resign in shame. Not just for Afghanistan, but for the abject failure he’s been since January

I was able to see some of it at lunch. I told my wife they got him all jacked up on prescription ADHD speed (Adderall, Ritalin, Concerta, Vyvanse or just plain old amphetamines). It look like he had cotton mouth and then there was his forceful tone. Even his whisper seemed more forceful. I was waiting for him to start grinding his teeth.
