Somewhere else to be, Joe? Furious veterans slam Biden for checking his watch during dignified transfer of 13 US service members killed in ISIS-K's Kabul suicide blast

President Joe Biden is under fire after appearing to look at his watch just seconds after a salute honoring the return of the 13 US servicemembers killed in Thursday's ISIS-K suicide bombing in Kabul.

The president made the unannounced trip to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware on Sunday morning as the caskets of the 13 service members killed in the attack were brought back to the United States.

He stood in silence, his right hand to his chest, as a succession of flag draped transfer coffins were carried past him from a C-17 Globemaster plane.

But during the ceremony, Biden appears to jerk his left arm up and look down at his watch.

Just heard on Bannon some liberal news outlet is spinning this. They say Biden is reaching down to touch a rosary he wears on his wrist that belonged to his son Beau.

Bad enough about the watch, but shouldn’t the Commander in Chief be saluting?

Joe, who enjoyed numerous draft deferments during Vietnam, constantly uses, and tries to tie his son Beau to Gold Star families. Well, he wasn’t. Beau was a reserve lawyer, was not on the front lines in Iraq, was never wounded, and died over ten years after he returned from Iraq of a brain tumor. Stop taking advantage of the heroism of others, Joe. It’s not yours and not your family’s.

FWIW, I think Deep State is more than happy to have people PO’d about the watch thing.

Because that means people aren’t focusing on whether or not Deep State sent certain personnel to Afghanistan to die and these 13 dead are just collateral damage to hide the intentional targets.

I understand that Beau would sneak out at night and personally look for Saddam. I also just learned that Demented Joe believes his cancer was service related, which explains his connection to real combat vets.

I’m sure that seems plausible in a dementia riddled mind.
