They will also meet with the families of the 13 U.S. service members who lost their lives last Thursday in a suicide bombing at the gates of Hamid Karzai International Airport.

Since the Taliban overthrew the Afghan government during an 11-day offensive that surprised officials, the U.S. and other allies have evacuated approximately 114,400 people as of Sunday morning, according to the White House. Roughly 120,000 people have been relocated during the entire month of August.

Over 70K Afghan defense forces died (10x the allied losses) and approx 40K civilians. Despite little resistance in 2021, many fought and many died in the conflict.

This goes to show how little you understand about politics. One of the worst things trump did was normalize the president free speaking to reporters. His narcissism could never allow him to stay on topic or do the actual job of president.
Presidents aren’t jazz players who everyday must show up and answer questions. Most have meetings and are busy focusing on politics. That’s why they have press secretaries. Historically, even this Press Secretary briefings that we’re familiar with are pretty recent innovations in this era of social media and nonstop tv news cycles.
Biden was speaking about the hurricane, not Afghanistan. It’s actually normal for aides to instruct the president about the message and topic. That’s normal. Just because Trump had a the attention span of a squirrel doesn’t mean every president must. Read a book or educate yourself about this subject, it would help you a lot.

And if we’re being honest there, was there anything Biden could’ve said that would’ve satisfied you? What were you looking for?

This was probably one of the very first security briefings he had when he took office. That’s time to put together some sort of plan instead of this cluster **** that’s going on now.This goes to show how little you understand about politics.

Lol you act like that didn't happen under trump. I specifically remember trump getting into petty arguments with reporters on the regular and often having them removed if he didn't like their questions.

I remember when Trump would find himself in trouble in those dumbass covid briefings where he would give god awful medical advice and would give himself a life raft by calling on this OANN reporter for a softball:

We all wanted out of Afghanistan, yes. He is fine with the way it happened though. He can't admit that this administration is completely inept and ****** up big time.
