How long until Biden gets on Twitter and attacks the Gold Star families who misrepresented him looking at his watch? Gotta project strength!


I seriously doubt Biden will ever do that even if he does get strong criticism from Gold Star Families (as he probably will and in some cases should), but I don't see him blasting people on Twitter, that is just not in his character.

....I know. I was joking. The last guy would have done it, and his cult members would have loved it.

Does he want Biden to fly there and personally pick him up? 😂

It’s enjoyable watching you guys feign outrage over every little thing now.


If Biden actually gave a shit and the retreat was organized he would have gotten him out. Most people think that if someone saves your life that you would gladly do the same for them. Can't you visualize the likely last words between them 'You saved my ass Ahmad. Give me a call if you never need any help.'

Why are you so convinced that nothing is currently being done to get him out?

Why are you proposing their is? Do you really think that the US is going to start running Ranger extraction raids into Afghanistan after their defeat. The Afghani's have hundred of foreign nationals trapped in the country to take hostage if you piss them off.

I would believe that extraction plans are being made for some of the people left behind.

I will remember that the next time we put our ass on the line to protect some of your embassy staff. The remainder were held hostage for 14 months since you couldn't protect your embassy.

We should have left Afghanistan ten years ago.

Thanks Papa Joe for shepherding your flock adroitly and finally doing the right thing.
