Afghanistan Withdrawal Was 100% Biden's Fault
If not more
In July 2021, President Joe Biden announced the United States would withdraw from Afghanistan completely by the end of that August.
Naturally, people had questions. And just as naturally, Joe responded to those questions by lying his ass off.

Joe not only insisted the Taliban wouldn’t take over the country, he claimed none of his advisers even predicted it.
And as you can see, he still had a lot of his marbles. He’d lost a step or three by that point, but it was nothing compared to the way he is now. So he knew he was lying.
And then we pulled out of Afghanistan, and this was just the first part of the disaster:
It only got worse from there. Total chaos. Afghans and Americans died needlessly. Biden’s presidency has never recovered from the disgrace.
And it was all his fault.
Caitlin Doornbos and Ryan King, NY Post:
President Biden was so hellbent on getting out of Afghanistan that he rebuked any advice to the contrary, ignored the pleas of the Afghan government and disregarded objections from US allies.
That was the one of the main takeaways from the House Foreign Affairs Committee’s more than two-year investigation into America’s chaotic, deadly Afghanistan withdrawal, according to a blistering report released Sunday…
“Despite President Biden’s public assertions to the contrary, our investigation has revealed the secretary of defense, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, the commander of US Central Command, the secretary of state, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and the commander of NATO’s Resolute Support Mission and United States Forces-Afghanistan all advised against withdrawing all US troops from the country — both during and after the interagency review,” the report said.
Yep. Everybody told him not to do it, and he refused to listen. He lied and lied and lied, and people died and died and died. Somehow he justified it to himself, despite literally everybody telling him it would be a disaster.
