President Joe Biden wanted the now-departed Afghan president to create the 'perception' that his government was capable of holding off the Taliban - an indication he knew it was only a matter of time before the US ally fell to the Islamic group even while reassuring Americans at home that it would not happen. In the last phone call between Biden and his Afghan then-counterpart Ashraf Ghani, the American president said they needed to change perceptions of the Taliban's rapid advance 'whether it is true or not,' according to excerpts published on Tuesday.

Joe "Dementia" Biden
"People with dementia experience changes in how they perceive things. This includes misperceptions and misidentifications, hallucinations, delusions and time-shifting."

"So long as the optics are good, what do we care?" They think we deserve no better, and going by the proud stupidity of too many people who should not be allowed to vote, maybe they're right.

Stevie Wonder could have seen the collapse coming. Twenty years, and the Afghan Army wasn't going to fight without the US running operations and paying them boatloads of cash. The second that stopped, they couldn't throw away their rifles and uniforms fast enough.
You can't turn tribal barbarians into a professional army, no matter how much equipment and training you bestow upon them. They were going to revert to form, and that is exactly what happened. That we even tried was one of the greatest military blunders in history.

Nobody? President Trump did, and clearly said so in a speach in 2017. He said a rapid withdrawal would lead to an immediate fall to the Taliban and that ISIS and Alquida would come in. Somebody knew, our once and future President

By way of response and sympathy, Xiden leaves the poor Tolly Bon several billion dollars worth of American military hardware. Have we received a Thank You note yet?

#6 - I heard a rational defense of the Afghan Army's collapse. Just as the Taliban was advancing, the Afghan Army awoke one morning to find the Americans had slipped out of Bagram Air Base in the dead of night. With them went the close air support that was part of all their operations. The Afghan special forces were an effective unit only with the U.S. support and the front line soldiers knew that. I cannot imagine the demoralization the midnight withdrawal of that air support did to their ranks. How can we charge them with cowardice when because of Biden's actions their only choice was to die today or run away and fight another day.

and then he told him to skip the country with the whole treasury of the Afghani government and if he did that they weren't going to pursue him to get the money back - it's mind boggling to see the level of corruption in this guy and the rest of the demcommies
MAGA,A

Three points:
1. Soros, Obama & the Chi-Coms are running Biden, and were behind the mayhem in Afghanistan.
2. They were also behind the 2020 election fraud, and Biden’s occupation of the oval office.
3. Expect more of the same in 2022 and 2024 and the continued Marxist transformation of America.
