Media Turns On Biden: 'Why Do You Continue To Trust The Taliban Mr. President?'
2021-08-21
[ZERO] President Biden said the U.S. has helped evacuate 13,000 people from Afghanistan since Aug. 14 and is pledging to Americans still trapped in Afghanistan: "We will get you home."
"This is one of the largest, most difficult airlifts in history and the only country in the world capable of projecting this much power on the far side of the world with this degree of precision is the United States of America," Mr. Biden said Friday in the East Room of the White House.

#21  The're be back to servicing Biden (or Harris) in no time.

Yep - this 'anger' is purely for show, to give the false impression they're not completely compromised hacks.

#19  "Is it true, Mr. Pres--"
"Kiss my fist!"
"That you're, quite understandably, pissed?"
"Yes! Hey diddle diddle... I'm calling a piddle. You, clean up this mess! Class dismissed."

And the little dog laughed, and so forth.

#18  This military has been re-engineered to only take on domestic political opponents of the DNC. Period.

#14  #11 Can you imagine if your job 24/7 was to think of good things to say about Joe Biden? That by itself would drive even the most progressive reporter over the edge. "The President didn't piss his pants today... No, that won't work... Let's go with: There is no definitive proof that the President pissed his pants today... Wait, I got it... The President candidly and forthrightly pissed his pants today, fulfilling yet another campaign pledge."

#11  The guy stutters and stammers while trying to read his teleprompter then he turns his back on the media and walks away from them without answering any questions. No matter what their corporate bosses say, that has to piss them off.

#10  Hey media, what about the Taliban 2.0 narrative?

This is one of the largest, most difficult airlifts in history

Because nobody has done an emergency air evacuation from the middle of Asia after promising an airlift effort war could be won?

Its almost like us dumbasses, with our books and shit, were noticing flaws in this plan fifteen fucking years ago, but I guess The Managers needed to hew the ground to bear the fruit of Milley Pyrus and Lunch Vader.

#9  "This is one of the largest, most difficult airlifts in history...

Bigger than the Berlin Airlift in 1948?

#8  Biden has no choice but to trust the Taliban. They control the ground. The Taliban leadership is allowing airlifts for now. It would be foolish to rock the boat as long as he can evacuate. Untimely it will show he has no respect for the military, NGO, evacuees, and American public by getting into the worst hostage crisis since Iran. Then he will use the crisis thru the media to distract from all his other mistakes.

#2  I despise Biden and his people, but anyone who pisses off the media this badly must be doing something right. I'm so conflicted.
