I cant imagine what Taiwan and the entire Asian region is thinking right now.
Taiwan is thinking that whenever California becomes independent, I can be independent. Why can’t California. Such an America is not democratic
Ego is a waste.
@Jigzaw Tactics yours it’s the best comment ever. You made my day.
IMPEACH this clear and present danger to national security
@Jigzaw Tactics ask the do nothing Republicans
That’s what happens when you let dead people elect the president.
Of course he doesn’t take questions again after, and bolts back to the basement to eat ice cream.
@Ian Pleasant Trump hasn’t been the one to fall down steps.
@Anarchy And Empires trump raped ivanka… but you support Roy Moore and Matt Gaetz too. Did you know that every person on “to catch a predator” was a trump supporter?
@Ian Pleasant bro To catch a predator ended in 2007, trump didn’t launch his political campaign until 2014.
@Anarchy And Empires yep, they went back and checked with them. All are big Trump supporters. I think all pedos are.
@Ian Pleasant ahum…..sure fella…….. ya ain’t very good at this trolling business you know, the point is to make a statement that is reasonably believable, something that the other person can’t refute and your knows is wrong.
This bro yeah not very good, most people don’t even remember to catch a predator, and the few that do instantly know you’re trolling for remarking on such an old show and expecting a reaction.
It’s almost like he’s reading from something
probably is lmao
20 years of arming the Afghan army. And now those planes, helicopters, tanks and ammunition now belong to the Taliban.
@Josh Escude I am reading your post and you obviously have not read anything I said as I said it. Maybe you need to reread or stop trolling.
@Sylvia Rucker oh I read what you said. And your words demonstrate you have no idea what you’re talking about in regards to Afghanistan on any level
@Sylvia Rucker you absolutely suggested that Biden is being honest. All you’ve demonstrated is blind loyalty to the Democrats. And Afghanistan isn’t on the Republicans like you suggested. Feel free to look into the vote for GWOT. Furthermore the entirety of 9/11 rests on the shoulders of Bill Clinton. Bin Laden’s first attack against the US was in 1995 at the OPM-SANG Building in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. I’m extremely knowledgeable on it because my school was next door and our windows were blown out. My grandmother worked in the building. More than a dozen of my friend’s parents died despite them hiding that information. I was in Al Khobar when the Khobar Towers were attacked. I’m well versed on the continued attacks by Bin Laden prior to 9/11. Just like I’m aware that they had numerous opportunities to kill prior to 9/11. But you’re probably an expert on all that right?
@Sylvia Rucker and I’m still waiting on what specifically you are referencing on regards to human rights in the US
This is impeachable
“How could you not take questions on this?” Because he’s a coward running away from questions the way we ran away from confronting the Taliban and saving lives. He makes me sick.
He’s solved “racism” duh
Yea the 1st ? Would have been how about them helicopter taking people out of the embassy?
It’s not that he doesn’t want to answer questions, he’s physically incapable of creating a coherent sentence without reading it word for word from a teleprompter
He only had scripted pre-approved questions and bailed on them!
Who could run faster than trump. He dealt with nothing to a favorable outcome. Wait and see if this is good for all.
Kim jong un is rubbing his hands because he’ll be able to sell nukes to the taliban
Seeing how their testings go, I hope they do.
Nuclear weapons don’t exist, its a hoax.
Also Covid research as Bio Weapon in the Taliban possession and then have them come into the US thru the Mexican Southern boarder . We will never know we have been attacked until it’s too late !
Joe “if they die, they die” biden
Why not? It’s better than our folks dieing.
Republicans talk but only create more distraction in their ones country. Still cowards. Be a mercenary with your bad self and go help. I don’t think you will be stopped.
George Carlin was 110% correct when he said, The world is a freak show and in America, you get a front row seat.
No. You get onstage!
Biden used his own words to hit the face of the United States America’s credibility is gone, Biden promised the people that no one can unify Afghanistan, the Taliban and the Afghan government who can not eliminate who, the United States go. The Afghan government was wiped out, and the Taliban were founded. If Biden is a little ashamed, Biden, you step down. You will be remembered as a disgrace to American history if The Japanese leader had such a disgrace. In the spirit of Samurai, suicide should be committed, and the United States has never experienced such a great shame。
This world is manage by less than 1% and everything they do is for their profit interest.

He and Kamala should step down as they are UNFIT to lead this country!!! Wtf is he even talking about??? Our whole purpose for still being over there was to help rebuild the government and infrastructure!!!
Why? While Americans go hungry, homeless, jobless we help others? Let’s start giving a s..hit for our brothers and sisters here, let’s use the military to clear out drug infested communities then, and only then take on the world.
The CCP must be licking their chops right now about the prospects of “reunifying” Taiwan. If I’m Taiwan, then I’d be extremely worried about the U.S.A’s transient protection…
@I DRES – interesting Could you please provide the source/link? Whom ever wrote it sounds downright delusional.
@Pac1fic0 China’s state-run media tweeted it.
@I DRES it’s from an editorial in the Global Times tabloid. I don’t take that rather vitriolic rag seriously. They write crazy provocative stuff all the time.
@Pac1fic0 It’s operated under the People’s Daily newspaper, and is under government control. But you make a good point. My opinion might change a bit.
@I DRES – yeah. That tabloid is weird. It’s sort of like a bathroom stall for disgruntled CCP members, where they go scribble irresponsible or offensive stuff on the walls. Come to think of it…a little like the comment section of YouTube.
“Our mission was always counter-terrorism.”
Well, you failed. Hard. Can’t wait to see how many terror attacks originate from there now.
Well, considering the literally wide open southern border now….
He failed. What about the presidents before him and ones who went in without a plan of coming iut
@Lane Morrison is this the only area that politics are trashing the constitution. What about every man should be treated equal and many others which Americans don’t care about bc it benefits them. Take care of home.
This isn’t America anymore, it’s an SNL skit that has gotten out of control.
Except SNL isn’t funny, and the collapse of the US is hilarious because it’s Aalllll a product of spineless Men, and Women.
Explain to me what you believe America is. If you can articulate it in words and not some figment of your imagination.
I was all for leaving Afghanistan, but my goodness who came up with the plan for leaving Afghanistan the way we did? How could this administration have such poor planning? This is a national embarrassment.
as if you have a better way. either way you are assuming we were there to spread democracy.
We had to pull out quickly. Maybe some of those Afghans had covid
Joe: we just copied trump’s exit plan but because it’s republican we altered it like a true-blooded democrat, vietnam style….
@Vlyden Knox nope, the US should have learned how not to repeat vietnam exit..
The only thing this press conference proves is that he can read a teleprompter.
His job is to read whatever they tell him to read and stay out of the way. He is very much not in control of anything.
Barry Soetoro is the puppet master of this feeble, incompetent disaster IMO.
Ok so don’t blame him for this
@KnightLife Biden agreed to be his puppet, so he’s equally to blame.
Biden just gave the Taliban as much weaponry as any great military in the world. His words not mine.
Was it just me or did Comrade Joe leave the “” press conference” faster than a peaceful protester leaving a Target with a new T.V. 😂😂🤮
