President Joe Biden and his administration struggled Sunday to project order amid a race by American and other foreign personnel to evacuate Afghanistan as Taliban fighters entered Kabul.
The rapid fall of Afghanistan’s national forces and government has come as a shock to Biden and senior members of his administration, who only last month believed it could take months before the civilian government in Kabul fell – allowing a period of time after American troops left before the full consequences of the withdrawal were laid bare. [Snip] Biden is expected to address the nation in the next few days
Folks, keep in mind, that the whore Harris would make an even bigger mess of it. Vegetable's administration is incompetent from the top down.

“Miscalculation”? That’s like saying “some people did something” on 9/11.

Has it occurred to the world at large that American powers-that-be have no earthly idea what to do in any situation? God help our Nation, while we still have one !!!

Why hasn't Biden addressed the nation? It does not matter if he is on vacation. His first 7 months as president is mostly a vacation.

Parade of Humvees driven by the Taliban entering Kabul. A great PR and propaganda campaign for the terrorists. ....and don't forget, a free commercial for the Humvee manufacturers! "A vehicle with no racial and religious boundary."

Waiting for the next miscalculation when this administration gets the bright idea that they need to show how great and strong they are by attacking some supposed group or country. Who is next? Are they going to prove their mettle by going after Sryia or Iran. Are they going to draw a bright red line in the ocean by standing up to China regarding Taiwan and/or the South China Sea, or are they going to place Missiles in Ukraine and demand the return of Crimea? Just wait, the blowback from the Afghan failure will prod them to do something more stupid.

Miscalculation? How many is that now?
Remember when Trump told us we would get tired of winning? Everything was different then.

Are we going to provide exit flights for the 50,000 Afghan people who assisted and worked for the U.S. who are at risk of being incarcerated or murdered by the Taliban? They are in panic at the Kabul air port and the U.S. personnel are woefully understaffed and inept. This lack of preparation by the U.S. is a disgraceful scandal.

I agree with President Trump. Biden the cheater must resign right now. What happened today is beyond ridiculous and worse than a tragedy. Get Kamalie sworn in and we'll see if she can be propped up long enough for ???? to take over.

They obviously didn’t focus group test that word miscalculation enough. They should have used “glitz” instead or perhaps boo boo for Bidens sake.

Joe’s doesn’t even know where he is so it is an exercise in futility to blame him. All of the Generals need to be court marshaled for dereliction of duty.

I noticed none of the Tali-bums are wearing masks. I guess Covid has reached them yet.

Can’t wait to hear from Joe - although he may extend his vacation permanently.

Biden will take a page from Obama's play book. Just declare a victory and walk away. Simple but don't us words like 'miscalculations'. When you are stupid and dumb act smart and competent no one will know the difference. Remember Biden still has 50% support and won an election with 80 million votes so trust the man.

At the rate things are deteriorating, I expect the Chinese to initiate a barricade of Taiwan any day now.

You know that it has to be really bad if even CNN is covering it.
