Taliban taking over Afghanistan

[Shaps]

You misremember what happened. To the extent there was criticism, and there wasn't much, it came from Republicans. See, for example, the below article about Lindsey Graham's reaction..

We'll never know. This is Biden's 100%, because he came into office and scrapped Trump's plan in place and timeline... and instituted his own. Once that occurred, regardless of what perspective you have on the situation, it became his.

Also, all our enemies know Biden won't do shit. They had no idea what Trump would do, and that bit of an unknown variable works as a deterrent. Everyone knows Biden is a pushover... it's why you see things deteriorating not just in Afghanistan, but in numerous other regions and situations.

Exactly. I just don't see Trump begging a terrorist organization to spare the US embassy, he would have instead threatened severe retaliation from the US on our way out and would have been criticized by Democrats for threatening terrorists.

No one give me this shit that the president in office has no bearing on shit like this.

I can never remember how to do the damn video thing.

And personally, I think we should have left the minute we killed Bin Laden. But to late for that - numerous mistakes over the years happened through multiple administrations. But this current situation, sadly sits at the feet of the current President. Just how it is. When you want to lead, the responsibility comes with it.

On Biden's watch. Those that dealt with this shit personally for 20+ years - get ready for your kids to deal with it for the next 20.

The only thing Biden is watching is the backs of his eyelids and the “bouncing titties/nsr on Reddit. Most people don’t even know who our president is. I have watched MSNBC, FOX, and CNN all week and Joe Biden was mentioned a couple times in an entire week. However, I heard them say Donald Trumps name thousands of time....Daily

Obama, Bush, and Carter are all super happy Biden got elected because that pushes each of them one step closer to getting off the list of the 5 worst presidents ever elected.

Well that's it, the Afghanistan government has officially collapsed and the president has fled the country.

We were there for over 20 years and it took the Taliban a week to take back control.

[Astray]

Just turn Afghanistan into a parking lot.

[Neveragain]

With our southern border being wide open, freshly armed terrorists, 20th anniversary coming up and a terrible administration. Not good.

The pedophile and chief won't even address the nation.

This is now happening in Afghanistan:



Interesting though, just like other mass migration events it's typically young men who are doing all of the fleeing and going through desperate measures such as this.

Is there a reason for this? Like all of the older people and women can't make the trip so they are left behind? Women are married to these guys and these guys are like "Don't worry, babe, you stay here where it's safe, I'll make the dangerous journey to another country. I'll send money. Promise!" Men are typically stronger than women (please insert your whines for stating facts here) so they can overpower women and make it to places such as this airport?
