    I like how you downplay the shit out of a terrorist organization setting up roadblocks which has caused a dramatic slowdown of evacuations. Keep on keeping on. Oh by the way did you see the statement the Biden administration put out today that they had no way of knowing this would have happened? Almost as if he's saying it was impossible...weird.
    I’m not downplaying anything. I’m refuting your idiotic point that you put no thought into before you posted

    Now you’re implying that, no way of knowing has the same meaning as impossible? Lol?

    Like military leaders could have just decided to secure Kabul until Americans were safe? I find that hard to believe, that sounds like a decision that would require presidential approval, something they clearly didn't have.
    Again, this is only sudden if you haven't been paying attention for the last 20 years. There was a fuckup somewhere between the guys manning the checkpoints and the guy setting policy, over several administrations. That needs to be investigated.

    What did you refute exactly? I said Americans are trapped in Kabul. Are they or are they not trapped in Kabul? The terrorist organization supposedly letting Americans pass "with no trouble" doesn't mean Americans aren't trapped in Kabul. Why are you so fucking stupid?

    I asked where did Biden say this?
    Tgo sends an link and quotes Biden said “it’s highly unlikely”
    See the difference? Here let me help you with another version

    Would people still buy lottery tickets if it was IMPOSSIBLE(0% chance) to win?
    Imagine the lottery company said it’s highly unlikely you’ll win the lottery! People spend millions only to find out that the company made it impossible, the lottery replies, “highly unlikely, and impossible?! There’s no real difference!” (You and Tgo’s logic). Actually yeah, there is a big difference.

    It’s not about the word “impossible” it’s about Tgo floating false information as fact.

    Probably still too difficult for you to comprehend. Don’t even know why I try.
    Can you give us some sources where "everyone" has said that President Biden "royally fucked" this up?

    Or do you have a problem with English?

    China and Iran have already cut deals with the Taliban to exploit all of their natural resources.

    Good job, Biden! So we spent trillions in the country only for you to allow the Taliban to take control in a matter of days and now China gets to reap all of the rewards.

    What was even the point of all of this then? Each day I am somehow shocked that Biden is more incompetent than the day before.
    LOL again!

    NEVERMIND!

    Pentagon: Afghanistan evacuations past Aug. 31 would require additional Taliban talks

    The Pentagon conceded Thursday that continuing evacuations out of Kabul after Aug. 31 “would require additional conversations” with the Taliban to ensure the safety of Americans and Afghan allies seeking to flee the country.

    The acknowledgment comes after President Joe Biden said Wednesday he would maintain the U.S. military presence in Afghanistan beyond the end of the month — his self-imposed withdrawal deadline — if evacuation operations were not yet completed.

    But Pentagon spokesperson John Kirby said Thursday there “has been no decision to change the deadline” and indicated that an extension of the timeline for evacuations would need tacit approval from the Taliban in the form of a new agreement between U.S. officials and commanders of the militant group.
    So now we are put in a position where we have to beg the terrorist regime to allow our citizens to be evacuated if we can't evacuate them by the 31st? So Biden flat out lied saying we would stay there as long as we needed to?

    My God. You all voted for an absolute monster and can't just admit it. You're gonna vote for him even if he's in a vegetative state in 2024 aren't you?

    They aren't hitting hard at the airport. This evacuation could have been a whole lot worse if they were challenging it. We are probably going to be buddy buddy with them vs ISIS too, as we both hate them.

    Then why didn't Biden just cut deals with the Taliban so we could have evacuated our citizens in an orderly fashion and so we could take all of their natural resources?

    Either way Biden comes out of this looking completely incompetent.

    Shit maybe we should have just kept a military presence there if this is the alternative. I didn't realize just how badly Biden fucked this all up.

    “We’ve all seen the pictures,” ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos said in an interview on Wednesday. “We’ve seen those hundreds of people packed into a C-17, we’ve seen Afghans falling — ”

    Biden, the supposed champion of empathy, bristled.

    “That was four days ago! Five days ago!” he interjected indignantly.
    Four whole days ago! Old news already! Move on! Did you hear I'm taking a break from all of this Afghanistan nonsense to go after governors for opposing mask mandates in school?

    Talk about a complete lack of empathy. This guy is a straight up ghoul.

    How did this guy get elected again? Oh right, he wasn't Orange man.

    Dollars to donuts that we have at least 10,000 troops in Afghanistan by the end of the year.
