This guys is clueless. People are mad because you pulled everyone out as fast as you possibly could and left our civilians, diplomatic staff, and allies to fend for themselves without any notice. Nobody is clamoring to go back in.

This cocksucker has no clue that he has ZERO leverage to "guarantee" the treatment of anyone in Afghanistan! The Taliban is LETTING us leave. Period.

Yes, Biden. We should leave.

No, Biden. We should not have left American civilians, Afghanistan civilian targets, weapons and equipment and a pathetically low number of troops to get them out when it all went to shite.

This ordering, smoke screen speech just pisses me off more and it’s exactly what I expected.

frick you, Biden. Our diplomats and civilians aren’t consolidated at the airport. They are trapped there.

"We've safely transported our diplomats"

I have seen a good bit of evidence to the contrary.

I'm glad he blasted the Afghans. They became way too comfortable. Like an EBT cardholder.

LOL.

This paraphrase:

We didn't evacuate sooner because we didn't want to trigger a crisis and some Afghani's didn't want to leave. They were hopeful.

Stupid and transparently bullshite position for him to have.

We spent $900 billion developing their capability. This is a legit complaint.

But neither have anything to do with the botched withdrawal plan, especially given that the IC was warning that this was likely to happen for a while now.
