A defiant President Joe Biden defended his tumultuous exit from Afghanistan on Tuesday, refusing to admit mistakes or accept blame for lives lost or Americans left behind.
“Some say that the evacuation from Afghanistan could have been started sooner and completed in a more orderly fashion,” Biden said. “I respectfully disagree.”
Biden began by describing the military evacuation as a success, defying critics of his rushed exit from the country after the Taliban seized control of Kabul on August 15.
“The extraordinary success of this mission is due to the incredible skill bravely (sic) and selfless courage of the United States military and our diplomats and intelligence professionals,” he said.
Biden was 44 minutes late for his scheduled speech — even though it was already rescheduled from earlier in the afternoon. He began his speech by nearly shouting from the podium as he defended his efforts.
His address took place more than 24 hours after the last flight left the Kabul airport, leaving the State Department and the Pentagon to explain why Americans were left behind, even after Biden promised to stay until every American was evacuated.
The president also defended leaving Americans behind in Afghanistan, arguing that 90 percent of Americans who wanted to leave were evacuated.

He didn't get them out.
Tough luck for them.
Dementia and Delusion, what a combo.
The “News” is reporting that the aircraft given to the Jihad were “inoperable.” (HaHa!)
Yes sir, angry. He was coached, and with a big shot in the ass, to go before the camera and read his speech with anger. That was to prove his impatience with all the deplorables that are out their lying about his stellar success at surrendering to the Taliban, getting Marines killed, and handing over a treasure trove of our best military hardware. Not to mention leaving fifty dogs to Muslims who hate dogs. It was so difficult to get fifty dogs on all those huge planes.

So, how does the “buck stop here” when you refuse to accept the blame, Peds?
If not you Diaper Joe, then who?
~~~~~~~~~~~
Strongly-worded lies. And blaming Trump...

90% out, 10% left behind. The Big Guy is very familiar with 10%.
This evil effer is becoming UNTOUCHABLE like Ovomit! The mediapukes are making it possible for this ass to literally get away with murder and abandoning arsenal that can be used against America in the near future. How in the hell can aour military soldier tell apart a terrorist dressed in our uniform and caring our equipment driving our Humvees if they have to face each other in the future.
I could not believe how awful he was today.
Obvious cognitive decline.
And the media are spinning like windmills.
When was the last time any president accepted responsibility for when they screwed up? Certainly not in my lifetime.
