George Stephanopolis interviewed Biden.
"There's no way we could have gotten out without chaos," said POTUS.
He seemed very angry.
He is so inept on this topic. Again, his July 8th comments were crystal clear and now clearly the complete opposite of what happened.
How else could this have been handled? Umm, waiting until you’ve evacuated all of our afghan partners (translators etc) and US assets before dismantling our military force over there?

That's a horrible look for him.
Yes. And the RWEC is calling for the release of the full, unedited, video of the interview.
Stephanopoulos responds that they're releasing the full transcript.
Not good enough, says Hewitt. Release the
Krakenfull video. -

Looking more like the fall of Saigon than ever.
Seems that Gwynne Dyer thought similarly back in mid March:

What does everyone think about the release of Mullah Baradar under Trump, co founder of the Taliban, and now apparently in charge?
The Trump administration had struck a deal with this guy where he agreed to make the Taliban more civil and less terroristic. In spite of the cluster fuck Biden has caused, this seems to be working, as the Taliban leadership held a press conference vowing to not seek retribution, to allow women more civil rights, including the right to attend school. In fact, if they follow through on all the things they said, Afghanistan could end up less like Iran and more like Saudi Arabia, relatively peaceful but a strict Islamic state.
As Quirt would undoubtedly say, if not spell, colour me skeptical.
I doubt that story get past D.I. Chistopher Foyle without raising an eyebrow.

@mik She is a truly awful human being.
Have you heard the joke about how liberals, when their children act up, threaten them that if they don't shape up and behave, Daddy will send Ann Coulter around to visit them in the night?
As tactics go, this is said to have a high success rate.
