Biden didn’t only prove himself to be a fool on the matter just a few weeks later but reiterated during his speech that he had “no regrets” on his withdrawal plan. This is perhaps the most egregious thing said by Biden during the whole presser. //
Biden’s speech was everything you could have expected from Biden: The speech was filled with various finger-pointing at Trump, at the military, at the Afghan people, despite it ending ironically with a Truman-Esque “the buck stops here.” But yet, the symbolism that truly showed through at that presser was when Biden had to then turn his back on the cameras and walk away. Worse than that, he then walked outside to Marine One to head back on vacation.
He didn’t take any questions. He didn’t act like a person who is in charge. He acted like he was checking a box. “Well, I addressed the country. Can I go back on vacation now?” In fact, Biden created more questions than answered them. Remember, just a few weeks ago, Biden said Afghanistan was not going to become a new Vietnam, and any withdrawal would not lead to Taliban control on the country. //
We already know what they plan to do to the country that we have spent 20 years, 2 trillion dollars, and thousands of American lives to create and Joe Biden was willing to throw all that out. Worse yet, even with the benefit of hindsight, he has no regret.
Yet, despite these huge errors in judgment, Mr. “The Buck Stops Here” didn’t stick around after his presser to accept questions. //
He turned his back on the military. He turned his back on the Embassy officials still on the ground. He turned his back on our allies who are still in the country. He turned his back on the Afghan people. He turned his back on the Gold Star Families, wounded veterans, and others who were lucky enough to return home. He turned his back on the local interpreters who saved countless American lives. It isn’t like the President doesn’t see the same images we see or isn’t terrified by the same video we are seeing. In fact, he probably has access to even more footage and data. Not so much as a plan, a promise, or a guarantee. Despite all these horrible results of his failure to plan, he has no regrets. //

Why do people assume Biden has a conscience? He knew this would happen and just didn't care. Quit trying to measure him by standards of decent human beings. Nothing in his history shows he has morals or decency.
