Just own the fact that Joe screwed this up ROYALLY! Trump has NOTHING to do with this debacle. You have people falling off airplane because they just want out. I have never seen anything like this before. Unbelievable the only thing you and other democrats have to say is…but Trump.

The intelligence reports are all lies and that’s the data used to determine next actions. Garbage in, garbage out. Works every time.
But it would have been a smart move to evacuate the Americans and interpreters and their families first and to either take the military equipment and vehicles or destroy them. It was a total incompetent order by Biden and the blame is totally on Biden.

It wasn’t balls, but stupidity

Kind of not putting much faith in the Afghan military to grab all their equipment you gave them and take it back though. In hindsight, sure, not like they were going to be using to anyway.

Because crimes against humanity are ok, so long as you don’t send mean tweets.

Oh and because it’s racist if you censor radical Islam.

Not really. It would take balls to leave Germany, Japan, and Korea.

The deal to leave Afghanistan was already in place before Biden arrived, problem is Biden botched it.

The Taliban Troll Joe Biden on Twitter

It seems as though the Taliban have seen the images.
He is a laughing stock and an embarrassment to the whole world.

The only people who are not embarrassed by Biden are far left wing liberals, who are incapable of criticizing their glorious "leader".

I am in no way defending Biden though, this is one big s#$t show for sure.
Trump, the loose cannon, under whom we had peace.
