This was by design which is why we are cutting and running on the 31st. There will be a lot of Americans who just "disappeared" or what the Biden Administration will classify as those who didn't want to leave Afghanistan.
And the dims will make damn sure to have each of their names, so they can still vote.

Absolutely. All we have done is show weakness. This administration is a joke. Sadly China knows this and is organizing stuff to take Taiwan.

More propaganda from the Administration:

They will stand in front of the American people and shamelessly lie, as if we can't see video and reports coming out of Kabul.

Ah....there's the rub, though. More than a few of those Afghanis who have been beaten have actually been American citizens.

CNN
A bipartisan group of 55 senators is urging President Joe Biden to quickly evacuate Afghan Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) applicants and their families and fully implement changes to the program signed into law in late July.
"The Taliban's rapid ascendancy across Afghanistan and takeover of Kabul should not cause us to break our promise to the Afghans who helped us operate over the past twenty years and are counting on us for assistance," the lawmakers, led by Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen and Republican Sen. Joni Ernst, wrote in a letter obtained by CNN Thursday.

They are responsible for 63% let me spell that out for you so you understand SIXTY THREE PERCENT of the global semiconductor market.
Semiconductors are critical components that power electronics from computers and smartphones to the brake sensors in cars to fishing reels to furniture manufacturing to pacemakers to Air conditioners.

It would take approx. 5-8 years to build just one plant if you started today.
