Biden Shows His Incompetency Once Again in ABC Interview About Afghanistan
I have no words about this interview. It was a complete dumpster fire.
Professor Jacobson’s quick hit in Thursday’s newsletter said it’s scary that President Joe Biden is barely present.
I don’t know if I agree. Every time Biden opens his mouth it’s a disaster and makes everything worse.
On Wednesday, Biden threatened nursing homes and Republican governors over COVID at a press briefing. He turned his back on the press, ignoring questions about Afghanistan.
Turns out he headed to an interview with ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos to address the Afghanistan fiasco.
Here are some highlights. It’s a doozy. Not only is Biden incompetent, but Georgie did not challenge him or push back about obvious lies and mistakes.
Timing of Certain Videos
First and foremost, Biden is not paying attention. Stephanopoulos asked about the Afghans holding onto planes for dear life, falling to their deaths as they try to escape the Taliban.
What a moron. Stephanopoulos did not push back. Disgraceful. He should have corrected Biden.

Chaos
Biden insisted they could not withdraw from Afghanistan without chaos. I agree. But the withdrawal could have gone a lot better. They had over seven months to prepare for the withdrawal.
EXCLUSIVE: Pressed on whether the U.S.'s exit from Afghanistan could have been handled better, Pres. Biden tells @GStephanopoulos, "The idea that somehow, there's a way to have gotten out without chaos ensuing—I don't know how that happens." https://t.co/mH1AyWI5lb pic.twitter.com/osAwdDQy2L

Stephanopoulos: So you don't think this could've been handled, this exit could've been handled better in any way? No mistakes?
POTUS: No… the idea that somehow there's a way to have gotten out without chaos ensuing, I don't know how that happens. I don't know how that happened.

Warm and Cozy With the Taliban
On July 8 Biden said “it is not” inevitable the Taliban will take over Afghanistan. He praised the Afghan army and troops. He skipped over a question about trusting the Taliban.
Then Stephanopoulos asked Biden if he thinks the Taliban has changed.
Are you kidding me:
STEPHANOPOULOS: What happens now in Afghanistan? Do you believe the Taliban have changed?
BIDEN: No. I think– let me put it this way. I think they’re going through sort of an existential crisis about do they want to be recognized by the international community as being a legitimate government. I’m not sure they do. But look, they have–
STEPHANOPOULOS: They care about their beliefs more?
BIDEN: Well, they do. But they also care about whether they have food to eat, whether they have an income that they can provide for their f– that they can make any money and run an economy. They care about whether or not they can hold together the society that they in fact say they care so much about.
I’m not counting on any of that. I’m not cou– but that is part of what I think is going on right now in terms of I– I’m not sure I would’ve predicted, George, nor would you or anyone else, that when we decided to leave, that they’d provide safe passage for Americans to get out.
EXCLUSIVE: @GStephanopoulos: “Do you believe the Taliban have changed?”
Pres. Biden: “I think they’re going through sort of an existential crisis about do they want to be recognized by the int’l community as being a legitimate government.” https://t.co/zgMVDKleiv pic.twitter.com/Bgxenaydap

Does anyone with a brain cell think the Taliban cares about what the international community thinks about them? Do you think they care if others consider them a legitimate government? Do you think they care about fellow Afghans?
It gets worse every single day with this man.

“Biden shows his incompetency once again…”
That sounds like it’s just now and then when in fact it’s a coninutal on-going problem. Biden shows incompetence many times daily. It would only be news if he were able to go one whole day without showing incompetency.
One article said that having Biden as president is like being taped to a chair and having a toddler stand in front of you waving a loaded gun in your face.
It would be front page news if the pedophile managed to show himself competent in ANYTHING.
Trolls: serious question. How do you support this joker? Do you still think mean tweets are worse than this? If so you need to rethink your ability to cast an informed vote.
They are like whores. Their pocketbook is their first loyalty.
Who said anything about supporting him. It’s a case of the best policies and things like the infrastructure bill, voting reform, investing in the green economy are good starts. With respect to Afghanistan I certainly don’t think Biden has done a good job. That said the end result whether it had been Biden or Trump would have been the same.
With respect to mean tweet being the only reason for not liking Trump. Man you didn’t pay attention. A man who lied more than any other in the history of politics, who made Obama’s immigration policies even worse locking kids in cages, who lied to the public about covid and managed to have a response so bad 600k plus Americans are dead, a man who abused his office for personal gain, making millions out of the Whitehouse, who endorsed white supremacists and is now a figure head for many of those types, a man who thinks it’s ok to sexualise his own daughter, who’s spent most of life screwing people over in his business dealings, a man who has been bankcrupt multiple times, doesn’t pay any taxes , doesn’t contribute to society in any meaningful way, a man who didn’t do any fucking work spending his time watching Fox news and playing golf, a man who denigrated the US constitution in multiple respects. A man who has openly flirted with authoritarian rulers and used there tactics to try and overturn an election by lying about it before during and after. Attempting to subvert the choice of the people using stooges in the DoJ and when that failed actively encouraging fanatical followers to violently assault the capitol building. 140 officers attacked, some of which have been threatened afterwards because it doesn’t for with the magas shallow pro LE narrative.
If you really think that it was because of Trump’s tweets that practically the entire planet thinks Trump’s a useless grifting prick then maybe you should step outside your bubble.
you think with your emotions and not your intellect, you’re not part of the 16% of people who think, reason and decide for themselves, you belong to the 84% of SHEEP PEOPLE who fall for anything and do not stand something!
Sleepy Joe’s minders wouldn’t normally let him do an interview, because it would show how incompetent he is. But they’re willing to let him do one with George Stephanopoulos, who started out as Bill Clinton’s communications director and has continued to serve as a Democrat operative since then. They trust George.
There is no way George would ever ask Biden a confrontational question; still, Biden’s minders are confident that George will edit out any of Biden’s blunders and make him look Presidential.
This super-friendly interview is right in line with their policy of never letting Biden answer any unexpected questions. All questions are submitted in advance, so Biden can read the answers off the teleprompter or cards. Unfriendly questioners are never called upon.
Right. So knowing that this is the best manufactured B.S. they could come up with – you can just imagine how bad things really are.
Shit show all the way.
Shit show all the way.
And back.
Correction: The Pentagon has had twenty years to prepare for this specific withdrawal. They’ve had a couple hundred to prepare for withdrawals in general.
Moving troops and equipment away from one place and to another with minimum fuss -even under fire – is something they should train for almost as much as actually fighting.
Biden is a senile idiot who should not be in charge of anything. His administration’s policies are idiotic and destructive. But that does not excuse the multi-star place-holders at the Pentagon who utterly failed to do their jobs!
Politicians in uniform with near-zero field experience.
To borrow the words of one of the most intelligent men alive, Dr, Thomas Sowell: “Biden has always been a doofus”. Youtube interview in April 2021. A doofus is not a one to get to be in charge of what until Nov/2020 was the most powerful nation on earth. The doofus is making sure that we are not anymore. Dr. Sowell also said: “Biden is America’s point of no return”.
Please stop being so kind to the thoroughly corrupt party that worked to steal an election for a man they knew could not do the job.
Randomly pick any bum from any street in America, and they will be able to give you A LIST of ways to withdraw from Afghanistan while minimizing chaos, bringing American citizens home, and making sure OUR military equipment does not fall in the hands of the taliban.
Joe Biden just proved one more time that there are only 2 choices:
1- He and his team are utterly incompetent and unqualified for the job
or
2- They are doing it all on purpose
I vote C: All of the above
Incompetence? More like malignancy.
He’s under the total control of the ChiComms. A man as corrupt, greedy and stupid is selling us out on a level even Obama and Clinton dreamed of.
Social media are all about things no actual participant is competent at.
He’s not my POTUS, I will never accept that pedophile piece of shit’s authority, or his vice-whore’s either for that matter.
He’s no one’s POTUS. It’s all an illusion.
Meanwhile, that illusion that is no one’s president, is doing incalculable damage to this country and its people.
I still can’t believe Sundowner runs anything in the government, he only says and does what the teleprompter tells him to say and do.
I have the feeling Barky or who runs him has way more to do with government decisions.
You’re just coming to this conclusion now? This has been obvious from day 1.
I strongly doubt Obama has anything to do with this administration – or wants to. He has totally cashed in and is sitting in his enormous, oceanfront home in Martha’s Vineyard surrounded by sycophantic celebrities.
I mean, it’s not like he did a lot even when he WAS president!
Behind the scenes he may have been a puppet master but like in a Twilight Zone episode, the puppet is cutting the strings. What may have started as Obama 2.0 is now Carter 2.0.
Like other commenters have pointed out, if this is what the cut and edited for beauty version of the interview from a dedicated leftist network looks like, what does the raw unedited interview look like?
Tucker Carlson claims to have a transcript of an exchange that was edited out. They are trying to get the actual footage.. It was really bad.. He discussed his deceased son Beau and mixed up where he served, even the wrong branch of the military…
Biden could drop trou and twerk at a press conference and they would spin it somehow.
Careful, Joe. You’re getting pretty orange.
Biden’s color is the same as the fourth horse in the apocalypse
In my family we wager about likely outcomes… elections are one of them. I took a beating on a 2020 election wager I made in 2017.
Next get together we will wager on Biden being removed. It’s actually great fun- you have to choose the outcome and if its highly probable you had to get the time line correct.
Joe didn’t answer Boris Johnson’s phone call for over a day and , from what I gather, didn’t take the proverbial 3 AM calls. There is a major impasse between British forces and US in Kabul… where Paras are going beyond the wire to save people while US forces sit back. Dereliction of duty at the highest level… or just a derelict playing prez. Now the UK can’t dare trust the US admin…
Clearly the Biden regime doesn’t want to be regarded as a legitimate government.
81 Million votes, ‘eh?
Where did they find them all…
Alzheimers/senile voters being helped in nursing homes, graveyard names, non-English comprehension people voting, HATERS OF TRUMP, prisoners, voters using 2 ballots, machine changing vote, putting a ballot in machine twice, ballot counters changing votes, etc.
You know what is the most important thing is?
We really need a concerted effort to get Joe and Kamala out the door by the shortest possible path, and impeachment, I believe is not one of those.
I do not believe we had an Election in 2020, and if we do not go back and cure it now, there will never be another.
It was bad enough that I withdrew from the registered voter rolls as I cannot honestly tell you that I am the end user of my own vote.
There is no way to verify that.
There is no other path than impeachment, and that is not a path either, since it requires numbers that are just not there. Like it or not, we’re stuck with them.
The plan is coming together. Kamala becomes president, and Obama becomes her VP.
You mean Michelle, right? What a terrifying (and also hilarious) thought!
It’s not incomptency!
HE. DOES. NOT. CARE.
Hunter: “Gotta say dad, I really appreciate you getting the media off my back about the hookers, meth, photos on my laptop and art sales.”
Hunter: “Gotta say dad, I really appreciate you getting the media off my back about the hookers, meth, photos on my laptop. And that was a really cool idea to claim all the money came from art sales.”
It gets worse. My gosh-

“Two days ago. It was two days ago.”
They’ve been giving him ice cream twice a day to keep him content in the basement, and naturally, his internal calendar is now running twice as fast.
Biden….non compos mentis
this was the MOST CHILLING ANSWER HE GAVE, ANGRY, UNCARING, what a terrorist of a SHITSHOW his election was and he’s lacking anything like human sympathy for what he contributes to as he lies about ‘the buck stops in my bank’ from China 4 me n hunter
Remember that in the Communist doctrine, life comes last. He doesn’t care about any of the thousands of lives that this blunder will cost. It’s not that his senility deprives him of feelings like it happens with age, but because his ideology goes first. He has another Lord to answer, not the American people, like every other President would. He knows he is here to stay, the hell with human beings. These are his true colors.
What a moron. Stephanopoulos did not push back. Disgraceful. He should have corrected Biden.
Respectfully sir, that is too much to ask of George. Stephanopoulos Is a leftist hack, there to cover the Democrats. No question, if that had been Trump or Bush, Stephanopoulos would have been all over him like white on rice.
