It's not blame, they are contributing circumstances.

From CNN….
From the article…
“The US military negotiated a secret arrangement with the Taliban that resulted in members of the militant group escorting clusters of Americans to the gates of the Kabul airport as they sought to escape Afghanistan, two defense officials told CNN.
One of the officials also revealed that US special operations forces set up a "secret gate" at the airport and established "call centers" to guide Americans through the evacuation process.
The officials said Americans were notified to gather at pre-set "muster points" close to the airport where the Taliban would check their credentials and take them a short distance to a gate manned by American forces who were standing by to let them inside amid huge crowds of Afghans seeking to flee.
The US troops were able to see the Americans approach with their Taliban escorts as they progressed through the crowds, presumably ready to intervene in case anything happened.”

Absolutely not. As long as ISIS, al-Qaeda and the Taliban exist we will always be under the threat of a future attack. I fear it will happen, even though I pray it doesn’t, and we’ll wind up right back in the Middle East. With all sincerity the greatest threat to this country comes from its own citizens that includes white supremacists and those crazy antivacvers or whatever they call themselves. Yes, I fully agree with this.

His spokesperson says Rep Johnwayne is safe, where abouts unknown.
According to one NBC NEWS the few Americans left behind are those with dual citizenship who either elected to stay until their entire family could get out, those working with aid groups, and those for whom the paperwork wasn't approved in time.
The government made 55,000 phone calls and sent 33,000 emails attempting to work with the Americans on the ground to get them to the airport and get them out before the Aug. 31 deadline.
Mullin has never served in the military or worked with any clandestine services.

joe sure is. That's who you're talking about, right? I'd like to add joe's also a feckless feebleminded weak dotard. He's pathetic.
The gall to brag about this big airlift is disgusting. Our soldiers are scrambling because this bumbling old fool finally got to sit his boney old ass in the big boy chair and he created this catastrophe.
I hope the ghosts of anyone left behind haunts him in his sleep.
It must really eat at the Republicans that after four years of total devastating incompetence by a Republican President the Democrats managed to elect a decent man doing a really decent job cleaning up the mess left by their guy. That he is showing compassion and empathy in the process that the other guy could never do. And thank you for sharing your petty little remark with us. It’s a perfect example of the bitterness Republicans must feel about now. That he is showing compassion and empathy in the process that the other guy could never do. Empathy? No. At the beginning of the withdrawal in his interview when he was asked about the horrific scenes of people trying to escape and people so desperate they were clinging to the outside of an airplane taking off and falling to their death, he got mad and snapped "That was 5 days ago!" (it was 2 if that even matters in his repugnant unempathetic answer) During the arrival of the flag draped coffins of our 13 soldiers, he kept checking his watch. Repeatedly. Disrespectful, but not empathetic. When he went to visit the families of those soldiers they said they were disgusted with him as he kept talking more about his dead son than their son who died as a result of HIS fucked up withdrawal. That is not empathy, it's at best narcissistic. Biden is not empathetic. At this point he's lost the ability to even pretend. *disclaimer: I know this thread is from a little while ago, but I just now got the chance to read this.

Ahhh, it’s very clear to me now now why nobody in your life wants to celebrate you and your birthday. Maybe you should take the hint. One of the problems is that people will not accept that Joe Biden has had a stutter since he was very young. It is not unusual for a stutter to be exacerbated with stress, upset, which was evident yesterday for all of us. Certain words/letters can create problems also. We know compassion is lacking from particular individuals and groups of people of late. A stutter does not make you forget that you're running for president and not for senate. A stutter does not make you ramble on and reminisce about letting kids playing with your leg hair decades ago. A stutter does not make you read the stage directions from the teleprompter. A stutter does not make you keep admitting that "they" won't let you take questions, to say that "they" are going to be mad at him. A stutter doesn't make you forget words, concepts, people's names and that this is the Biden presidency, not the Harris presidency. A stutter is not what causes his handlers to aggressively make sure he never answers questions. A stutter is not what has foreign officials questioning his mental capacity.

This is why I want good faith hearings in Congress to determine exactly what happened and what could have been done better.

Do you know he wears his dead son’s rosary beads on his wrist? As a religious man how do you know he wasn’t glancing at the beads each time a coffin was removed from the plane and saying a prayer? I had read someplace awhile back he wore his son’s rosary beads on his wrist and just read an account where a father of one of the dead said President Biden check his watch each time a coffin came off the plane. It was then I remembered reading about him wearing rosary beads on his wrist and put two and two together.

So your reasoning for dismissal of "my opinion" that Biden fucked up, doesn't hold water. Even a third grader can tell you that when there's a fire you don't get all of the teachers out of a school first and THEN get the students out. This a man checking his watch. Not a man looking at nonvisible rosary beads and lovingly remembering his son. Not by any stretch of the imagination. Even if you twisted yourself into a pretzel to somehow spin it, it wouldn't explain the rest of it. We still have people left behind. Still. And he "has turned the page on it." Biden is not empathetic. At this point he's lost the ability to even pretend.

While I am not trying to dismiss or sway your opinion (because truthfully I really don’t care what you think) or do the whole “but what about” thing…I am curious why you (you or more importantly Trump supporters) think that Joe Biden’s mental capacity is any worse than that of what Trump’s was when he was speaking as the President?
None of Biden’s misspeaks or physical actions are any worse, convoluted, or more out there than so much of what came out of Trump’s mouth and the way that (actual words and structure) he spoke. And actually Biden’s sound much more like just being misspeaks/gaffs (and I have done many in my life myself and that is not even at a podium in front of millions of people) than much of the crazy shit that came out of Trump’s mouth.
That is what I don’t understand…how those insisting that President Biden has dementia and yet think that Trump is anymore of sound mind? Especially if you are truly paying attention.
I have listened to both and I certainly would not call either of them great or gaff free speakers. But if I knew nothing of either and was just shown some tapes of both of them speaking I can guarantee you that I would be wondering much more about the intellectual capacity of Trump than I would of Biden. I just don’t understand. 🤷♀️

Biden is not empathetic. At this point he's lost the ability to even pretend. I’m not watching your video or any videos you post. We’ve been down this road before and you are easily duped by doctored videos. As to why President Biden was looking at his wrist. Believe what you want, but understand it may not be what you think it was or want it to be. As to “I don’t have to be part of the decision making process to know” scenario it only shows your ignorance. I’m not just picking on you. It’s all “backseat drivers” who think they know or know better or think they can do it better. All backseat drivers are making assumptions without knowing the facts and they often end up looking foolish once the facts are brought to light. As to any Americans still in Afghanistan, dumpster don had said he was pulling the military out by 5/1 and when he lost and President Biden took office he said in April that he would pull the military out by 9/11. So the question is why were there still Americans left in Afghanistan by the end of August, they were given ample notice the US was pulling out. So why did they wait until the last possible minute? You are the one with all the answers, care to enlighten us? Could it possibly be because no one anticipated how fast the Afghan government and military would collapsed? And how much did the agreement dumpster don made with the Taliban, while cutting out the Afghan government , contribute to the chaos? This is why I want good faith hearings on what happened so we can get the facts. And it’s unfortunate the Republicans in Congress aren’t interested in getting the facts on anything. As to “turning the page”, last I heard the Biden Administration is in talks with the Taliban to get the last of the folks that want out, out. If you have solid verifiable proof this is not the case and he has “turned the page” please share it with us.

Too funny coming from the person who spends their time scouring Twitter and retweets all the backseat drivers on there.
Speaking of the Afghanistan government, that President Ghani has quite a history and story.

Your comment is kind of in the same vain as this Congressman’s comment about President Biden.
