I asked for a link re: the White House stating that Biden going to Camp David on Friday was a vacation.



It’s ironic that you are using the term “the White House” to represent the presidency while simultaneously arguing that it’s ok that Biden isn’t there in a massive national crisis.

The White House is the symbol of the presidency and represents the presidency and the seriousness of the highest office in the nation. I don’t care if it’s described as a vacation or not. It’s terrible for optics that Biden hasn’t returned. I don’t care if they can get stuff done at camp David or not. It implies that he isnt treating this situation with the gravity that it requires.

don’t trust a damn thing they say but I can only hope they won’t do this bc they don’t want to give us a reason to return.


There isn’t a chance in hell we go back in and start an operation. First of all Biden is a coward. He will just give them cash and military equipment and anything they ask for.

No way we go back in

Agreed.

Appeasement is the way forward for this administration.

You can bet the world is taking notice.

Well no shite, look at China's commentary about Taiwan today.

Any country we threaten will simply respond with:

"And what? You'll pull your troops out under the cover of darkness, then completely fail to have a plan to evacuate your civilians, causing an international shite show streamed live while your President hides for three days?"

I don’t think there is a person on this planet who doesn’t think Biden is a retard - including Joe Biden

'We could have done more' - frustration grows in Washington over Biden's Kabul evacuation


quote:

WASHINGTON, Aug 16 (Reuters) - Frustration and anger at U.S. President Joe Biden’s handling of evacuations from Afghanistan are mounting among administration officials, lawmakers of both parties and advocacy groups.



quote:

But five U.S. officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters that weeks before the Washington-backed Afghan government collapsed, the U.S. military wanted a bigger role in helping to evacuate Afghans at risk because they worked for the United States. The officials believe that a more orderly withdrawal would have been likely.

"We could have done a lot more to help. The administration waited too long,” a military official said.



quote:

A person familiar with the situation said the Biden administration was behind the curve as things deteriorated in Afghanistan. "Every decision has come too late and in reaction to events that make the subsequent decision obsolete," the source said.
Local embassy employees who have been at home for weeks were left to make their own way to the airport, the source said, adding that emails were sent to them on Sunday after sporadic gunfire to remain in their houses or some other safe location.
The pandemonium hampering the evacuations prompted some embassy officials to raise concerns that there was an insufficient number of U.S. troops to secure the airport, reflecting poor planning and intelligence failures, said the source.



quote:

The source and another U.S. official told Reuters that the administration so badly misjudged the situation that the State Department flew a regular rotation of diplomats into Kabul last Tuesday even as the Taliban advanced toward the capital.

Deflect, derail, divert. This shite no longer matters, no matter how much you try to divert everyone’s attention. Biden showed his true colors and has shown the US to be untrustworthy to our allies, and an embarrassment as a nation.

Doing a suspicious amount of deflecting about Trump supporters for someone who didn’t vote for Biden…

If Americans and other NATO citizens are beheaded in the streets and broadcasted, he may have no choice but to take some coordinated action. We won’t go back in with boots on the ground but I don’t know if citizens of all the countries involved will allow “diplomacy” ie payoffs to be the only course of action. People are already pissed.

It's not a matter of if they invade, but when. And Taiwan will fold because the US is weak and won't do shite.

ETA: I'm sure someone will link the exact quote. I'm just paraphrasing.

European nations are neutered facsimiles of their former, glorious selves. Japan too.

If we don’t lead with boots in the ground nobody will

This isn't an a-hole response, but they issued a statement. It is easily found on Google.

With the exception of negotiations or peace talks, don't presidents usually go to Camp David almost exclusively to vacation?
