Yes he is and is responsible, but would you not trust a general and state dept who have been there 20 frigging years. Fire them all, embarrass them all publicly. 

Follow the money. It looks like the trillions were stolen and not used.

Must be Mad Dog and trumps boys....😁😁😁😁😁😁

 

You are absolutely clueless on how this country works, and how this thing has been handled.

What you post are conclusions based on zero knowledge and demonstrate gross ignorance.

You have not got a clue other than politics.

How your country works is no different than others. You are not that special anymore. The pres is commander in chief in title only. He relies on experienced people who in this case were totally crooks, stealing their salary.

So, if you think 20 years of military leadership, CIA involvement, state department etc and Biden is responsible. On paper yes. In reality not.

So sherpa boy, go sneak up on a pretty sheep tonight, keep warm until you figure out the world has passed your simple views by.

Say what? Yes, Biden is "responsible".  Not that that means much....it's just a word. I'm the President of my company, and yes, I am responsible too!  Does it mean that I make all the decisions about everything that goes on. Of course not. That's not the definition of 'responsible' as used in this context. Sheeeesh!

Harrowing footage has emerged of Afghan mothers throwing their babies over barbed wire at Kabul airport as they begged British troops to save them from the Taliban.

“The mothers were desperate, they were getting beaten by the Taliban. They shouted, ‘Save my baby!’ and threw the babies at us. Some of the babies fell on the barbed wire,” a Parachute Regiment officer told the UK’s Independent.

“It was awful what happened. By the end of the night, there wasn’t one man among us who was not crying,” he added quietly.

The heartbreaking scene unfolded as locals also handed their children to US soldiers on the other side of an airport wall in hopes of getting them placed on evacuation flights from the embattled capital.

 

 

Truly awful. Pisses me off.

Twitter says Taliban can stay on platform if they obey rules

Former President Donald Trump slammed Twitter for allowing the Taliban to use the social media platform to provide updates on their conquest of Afghanistan — as it stands by its decision to ban him from the site.

“It’s disgraceful when you think that you have killers and muggers and dictators and horrible — some horrible dictators and countries, and they’re all on but the president of the United States, who had hundreds of millions of people, by the way, he gets taken off,” Trump told Newsmax Wednesday in a phone interview.

While Trump has remained banned from the platform since the Jan. 6 Capitol riots, Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid has been allowed to post updates freely on the platform.

Mujahid’s unverified account, which was used to provide updates on the Taliban’s capture of Afghan cities as they aggressively took control of the country in days, has racked up more than 326,000 followers.

Another Taliban spokesman, Qari Yousaf Ahmadi, has more than 66,000 followers.

Twitter issued a blanket statement to questions about the radical Islamic militant group’s presence on the platform, but the company did not respond directly to the former president’s criticism.

No worries. Joe said we should expect some 'chaos'. It's all part of his plan. He's got this. WHAT A MESS!

Of course he is responsible....he is the man. But in reality his production Mgr, sales Mgr. , quality Mgr. Paid consultants all with 20 yrs on the job said that the Afghani army was trained and capable, the enemy was not able to respond quickly and the sales goal was a piece of cake to reach.

So pres, after a number of question to his staff, including his trusted friends he took their advise.

Bang, sales missed, stock price drops 45%, he is responsible. But the rest should be fired.

Lets face it billstime and co. loves china, the taliban, criminals, drug users, but they deeply, deeply despise white trump voters, church goers, conservatives etc...

These are the only enemies standing in these freaks way.

You and I agree 100% there.  Somebody needs to lose their job.  And probably more than one.  But....here again, Mr. Biden is responsible, and therefore he's responsible for doing the firing.  What do you think? Will he fire anyone? I doubt it.

I hope he does...but unlikely, the press would see it as passing the buck.

Glad we agree ....🙂

I wish he'd fire himself.  But that would leave us with Kackling Kammy.  :rolleyes:

He needs to do a press conference and take questions.   He’ll always own this, but he’s coming across as completely incapable of being President by acting like this.

DNC realizes she's as useful as a football bat.  Sending her packing to 'Nam to get her out-of-the-way.  Demented Biden basement style.  What an idiot.  We'd be better off with no Executive Branch at this point.  WAM.

Who elevated and legitimized the Taliban?

 

WELL OF COURSE - only the best:

 

 

PS: there was a reason why Trump and Pompeo cut a deal w the terrorists while the Afghan government we spent trillions building and supporting for 20 years HAD NO seat at the table…

 

What we are seeing today is all by design. 
 

The America First GQP version can go %^*=*  themselves.
