This may become the most infamous press conference ever held by an American President
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]
Joe Biden, Commander in Retreat  [REDSTATE] The depth of Joe The Big GuyBiden ...46th president of the U.S. Old, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant... or is that an act?... ’s ineptitude is stunning. Nothing he’s done in his first seven months has shown a breadth of competency — but his failure with Afghanistan has moved to the top of the list of failures. Biden made promises he couldn’t keep.Just hours after "guaranteeing " that Kabul would not be a repeat to Saigon 1975, with helicopters evacuating personnel from the roof our embassy, that is precisely what is happening. Biden issued a paper tiger, "Play nice or I’ll get really mad" warning to the Taliban ...the Pashtun equivalent of men... that, no doubt, was met with ridicule and mocking laughter. The Taliban will do as they wish, likely using the equipment we left behind. Biden’s stated goal was to be fully out of Afghanistan by the 20th anniversary of 9/11. Why he picked that date is incomprehensible. But the Taliban aren’t waiting. They will be in control of Kabul by the end of the week, and our embassy by Sept 1st. But rest assured, America — the Taliban won’t turn our embassy into ashes when they take it; they will wait to meet Biden’s withdraw date, then in a repeat of what they’ve done to monuments of prior empires, they will immolate those buildings on 9/11. Well done, Joe. Joe Biden Blames Donald Trump for Afghanistan Collapse [BREITBART] President Joe The Big GuyBiden  ...46th president of the U.S. Former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect hacked up by the World's Greatest Deliberative Body....issued a statement Saturday blaming former President Donald Trump ...His ancestors didn't own any slaves... after the Taliban ...mindless ferocity in a turban... rapidly took control of the majority of Afghanistan’s major cities."When I came to office, I inherited a deal cut by my predecessor," Biden wrote, complaining that Trump negotiated a deal "that left the Taliban in the strongest position militarily since 2001." Biden also noted that Trump had set the troop withdrawal date of May 1 and reduced troop levels to 2,500. The president said he had the choice of either following through with Trump’s withdrawal plan or sending more troops back into Afghanistan to secure the country. But Biden set a later date for withdrawal, choosing a new deadline of September 11th before walking it back to August 31. "I was the fourth President to preside over an American troop presence in Afghanistan—two Republicans, two Democrats," he said. "I would not, and will not, pass this war onto a fifth." On Saturday, Biden announced his decision to surge 5,000 American troops into Afghanistan to help ensure the safe evacuation of American personal. Posted by: Fred 2021-08-16 |
