The person who owns today is Biden. Just days ago the administration thought they had 6 months till the taliban reached Kabul.
Im glad we are getting out but not at a disorganized disaster for Americans.

Most people recognize this was going to be a shite show regardless of whomever pulled everyone out. The issue is the actual pull out of our non-combat types is so, so idiotically organized.

I'm not sure I'm prepared to blame the administration
Yeah saw journalist there today
On today's age why do they need to be there?

Youve ignored every fact given to you so far.
Its a fricking disaster and it's Joe Bidens fault.

its totally dependent on what happens with american citizens who are being told to shelter in place. if there is no plan to get them out and we actually leave them behind for the men to be executed and the women and children to be turned into actual slaves then yea, this is the policy disaster in american history and honestly biden should be impeached
100% agree
I'm still expecting that not to be the case. But even if they're all safely evaced but it comes under the propaganda of the Taliban allowing the defeated Americans to go - it's still a foreign policy catastrophe that could have pretty easily have been avoided.
Ultimately, is that all optics? Yes, provided they're safe. But it will dictate how we talk about this for 20, 50, 100 years, so pretenses and narratives do matter.

I blame all the Presidents for the bullshite idea of "nation building". We should have gone in, wrecked shite, and left.

How the frick could anyone with an ounce of objectivity support that pudding brained pedo after all this?
You people that are still in his corner are fricked in the head. Women and kids are about to be raped and men killed and desecrated.

Our tax dollars wasted, well that's a surprise no matter what US ADMINISTRATION
The biggest issue and where I think all the focus should be, is leaving with no warning and stranding our non-Military American citizens, that is indefensible.

Virtually no one has a problem with the decision to leave.
But it was Biden that conducted the withdrawl in the most undignified and embarrassing manner. That's what people have problem with. The implementation.

I can see a journalist being there, but not with an 11 month old.

It's how it was done, along with a complete lack of contingency planning. Going on TV saying the Taliban won't take back over and having it happen in weeks, not months or years, doesn't help either.
Pretty much what I'm saying. Gauging a clusterfrick vs. a best-possible-shitshow.

Well at least France doesn’t hold the record anymore for “Fastest time for your country to be conquered.”

Fact.
But who can believe he said just a week ago that the Taliban was no threat to take over Afghanistan?

In case we need an actual sign that the Talibaws just don't fit with the OT, this is it:
