And then we have President Kamala.

And then the real dumpster fire gets lit.

Yeah, but we can't get rid of her without getting rid of him first.

Why didn't kamalllaa speak about the Afghan women over there? Why did she even show up for the speech? What was the point. Now she goes back on her vacation and we still heard nothing from her. She should demand the podium to say some words. Wimp as crap. I hate these people. Constant disappointment all the time.

This entire presidency is a charade.

Or the press corps gave specific questions to specific people and only those people were "selected" to ask questions.

Wasn't worth the time spent watching it since he just went "politician" on the answers.....either not answering the direct question or outright lying.

Yeah, his answer was terrible.....splitting hairs, and then holding the people being helped over the wall as an accomplishment/progress while having to check with Blinken what that number was (he couldn't remember that it was 169).

I think my favorite part was trying to read the emotion in Kamala and Blinken's eyes.

They know the ship is sinking.

That was probably Peter Doocy.

Biden says he has seen no evidence of NATO allies criticizing his poor decisions on Afghanistan withdrawal...

Have the people managing Biden him kept the comments from the U.K., Parliament, France and Germany from him?

Obviously. No one trusts the Taliban.

However, we're in a position where we have to HOPE they will do what they've promised.

Did you want him to go on television and say what he really thinks about the Taliban?

Maybe he should TWEET it....

At the beginning of the speech, I sensed a bit of fear in the eyes and in the body language of both Harris and Blinken.
