Interestingly, I read a commentator this morning who pointed out that Biden has never referred to the Taliban as our enemy. Makes you wonder. Well, not really.

Why? It’s not like the Taliban can attack us here with that equipment. Well, ok, maybe, but wake me up when they are flying Blackhawk choppers around American suburbs and rolling some beat up APCs on front lawns.

Figured that was standard procedure and that it was already being done.

Well, at least they’re thinking about it. /eye roll

Perhaps the worst move he could make. Inflame the Taliban by killing some of them over some hardware that is already gone. The backlash against those Americans still “in country” will be swift and brutal. The French are getting their people out, why aren’t we?

Nothing like telling the bad guys you’re “considering” bombing the goodies you armed them with to give them time to stash them in safe places - the Buffoon In Chief hands the bad guys another gift.

Last week this might have made sense. But we’re dealing with idiots.

A little late to close the barn door ain’t it?

Well, just in case its NOT 'too late' it's nice of Biden's to tell the Taliban he's 'considering launching airstrikes on equipment left behind'. This way they can move stuff faster...

This is not something you advertise, thus provoking the enemy to hide or move more material.

The Taliban will be strapping American hostages to that equipment and daring TaliBiden to pull the trigger.

He is such a idiot. If he would have stayed with Trumps plan then it would have went smooth and all out people and equipment would be home and like the vaccine and jobs he could take credit for it. Instead he just can not stand it. He touches things and it’s goes way wrong. If he blows up equipment then he is burning our tax payer money. This guy need to go.

> Half the stuff is probably already in Iran. <

Well, you can be sure some of it will be on the way to China. The Chinese like to copy things, and we’ve just given them lots of cool stuff to copy for their own army.

So why did Dementia Joe not remove the equipment and American citizens from Afghanistan before he left?
Oh wait, he was too busy hunting and terrorizing President Trump supporters.
