During a portion of an interview with ABC News on Wednesday, President Joe Biden said that he doesn’t think the exit from Afghanistan could have been handled any better and “the idea that somehow, there’s a way to have gotten out without chaos ensuing, I don’t know how that happens.”

ABC host George Stephanopoulos asked, “So, you don’t think this could have been handled — this exit could have been handled better in any way, no mistakes?”

Biden responded, “No. I don’t think it could have been handled in a way that — we’re going to go back in hindsight and look — but the idea that somehow, there’s a way to have gotten out without chaos ensuing, I don’t know how that happens. I don’t know how that happened.”

So was he lying two weeks ago about it, or now?

Once the agreement orchestrated by Trump was jettisoned, all chances for a orderly withdrawal dissipated. That’s on you, Biden, you pony dogface asshat.

The RNC sure is getting a lot of great campaign ad material so far....

There is a lot of stuff he doesn’t know.

And this very answer is why he deserves removal by resignation or by impeach and removal.

That was cringeworthy. Shame on the Dems for propping him up in this position.

Well Joe, in an orderly, staged withdrawal the soldiers leave last not first. That’s one thing you could have done.

Me: I do. It happens when someone like Joe Biden is not President.

THis is what happens when you elect a guy president who never ran anything in his life other than his mouth. He is telling a rare truth when he says he doesn’t know how that happens, but any Marine Captain could have pulled it together in short order.

Articles of impeachment should have been filed yesterday.

I’m not just saying this. Joe Biden is derelict in his duty as president. He nominated an incompetent, blithering idiot as secdef, a nincompoop for a secretary of state, and an incompetent, lying idiot as sec of homeland security.

The smartest thing Biden did is select Harris as his running mate/ vp. It’s the same strategy Obama employed.

Seems to me that holding onto the airbases until after the evacuation instead of abandoning them first would have been a way to handle it better.

I am starting to think that impeachment is necessary.
