Just like when Carter put his feet up on his desk and lit a nice celebratory cigar because Obama took the mantle of worst President in history and donned it for him, now Obama just had a big superspreader celebration that coincided with his 60th birthday but was really about his joy at passing that mantle onto Joe "BFD" Biden who now wears it with a big smile along with a quickly escalating case of dementia.
"The likelihood there's going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely," Biden said in July during a news conference, adding that Afghan troops were "as well-equipped as any army in the world."

If it had to fall did we really have to arm our enemies so well at the same time, betray the people who helped us so they can get dragged out of their houses and executed in the streets, and as girls 12 and up are forced to marry cutthroats and murderers have Joe Biden become the world's most prominent facilitator of sex slavery?
Although first and foremost this is a massive failure of Joe Biden, special credit also has to go to the U.N. for doing absolutely nothing. Why is it the job of the U.S. to defend human rights for everyone? Of course Joe Biden was supposed to be the guy who gets cooperation from the international community and increases the standing of America around the world but we see how much that's worth. Nada. With our borders overrun and our murder rate skyrocketing, we can't defend ourselves so it's small wonder that we can't defend others either. We're a laughingstock.
Maybe one way to turn this around is for Biden to use it as a cautionary tale. You don't want to get invaded by America. If you oppose us when we invade we'll kill you. If you help us when we invade we'll get you killed when we leave. We did that to the Kurds in Iraq too so Afghanistan is not a one off. It's a promise we have a history of keeping. You'll get the old Kabayashi Maru. Damned if you do and damned if you don't. No way out. So don't piss us off.
