Biden gave a very ‘yelly’ speech today touting his successful withdrawal from Afghanistan and how the Taliban will allow freedom of travel to get the Americans trapped there out, because the UN Security Council demands it or something.
Here’s all the ‘lowlights’ from this terrible speech.
Biden claims the mission was an “extraordinary success”:

Biden blames the Afghan military that folded:
BIDEN: "The assumption was that more than 300,000 Afghan national security forces that we had trained over the past two decades and equipped would be a strong adversary in their civil wars with the Taliban…turned out not to be accurate."

Biden assures everyone that the Taliban will allow freedom to travel because the UN Security Council is demanding it:

And that there’s no deadline to get out those who still want to leave and Biden is committed to get them out:

Of course, Biden blamed Trump again and said the only alternative to leaving was to go back to war:

BIDEN: "We were left with a simple decision: follow through on the commitment made by the last administration and leave Afghanistan or say we weren’t leaving and commit another tens of thousands more troops going back to war." pic.twitter.com/r2Sj3hGDSt

Biden bottom lines it for you, says 90% of Americans who wanted to leave were able to leave:

And lastly, Biden didn’t take a single question from reporters. He turned his back on them, and us, once again:
