120,000 people evacuated to safety. That number is more than double what most experts thought were possible. No nation — no nation has ever done anything like it in all of history. Only the United States had the capacity and the will and the ability to do it, and we did it today.

The extraordinary success of this mission was due to the incredible skill, bravery, and selfless courage of the United States military and our diplomats and intelligence professionals.


Yes the military and intelligence people performed miracles considering a Jack Ass was leading them.

Tell me out of 120,000 people who exactly did he leave behind? Any Prisoners of war? You guys try so hard to find fault, well if that’s what you’re looking for you’ll always, always find it. If Trump had done what Biden did, my God, he’d be acting like he was Jesus walking on water.

In addition, what about the $85 billion in military equipment and weapons left for our enemies?
Stop deflecting. Take the criticism for what you put in office. You don’t get to use Trump anymore. Biden is President. Take responsibility for what you voted for.

Contrary to what you believe I'm not embarrassed or ashamed by who I voted for, maybe I would be if I voted for a lying corrupt traitor as in Trump.

You're entrenched in your misleading propaganda BS coming from the liar in chief POS Trump, some corrections, the 85 million in leaving behind weaponry and equipment is greatly exaggerated, First they left them behind but...not in any kind of working order and they were also obsolete.

In his speech, Trump continued to push the narrative that the U.S. left behind $85 billion of equipment, but an AP fact check found that those numbers are heavily inflated.

The $85 billion figure is what the U.S. spent on developing Afghanistan since 2001, but that would include troop training, pay, and other infrastructure costs over two decades of U.S. involvement.

The AP assessment found that only $18 billion was spent to equipping Afghans between 2002 and 2018, according to a report from the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction in June 2019.

In addition, a defense policy analyst said much of the equipment would have been obsolete or scrapped.

Marine Gen. Frank McKenzie said in August that 27 Humvees and 73 aircraft were disabled by Americans so they can never be used again. U.S. forces also disabled the Counter Rocket, Artillery and Mortar System as one of their last actions.

“We helped build a state, but we could not forge a nation,” he told the Senate committee. “The fact that the Afghan army we and our partners trained simply melted away – in many cases without firing a shot – took us all by surprise. It would be dishonest to claim otherwise.”

Wait a minute all i've been hearing is how Biden is the Commander in Chief, but now no credit, LMAO. Typical, when things are good, no credit, when things go awry, all the blame, good critical thinking there as usual.

You're ridiculous, he was going to bring over 65,000 people and in record time, he didn't do that, he went way above as we've never seen before and brought over 55,000 MORE! In record time! What an idiot comment.
It doesn't matter, if Jesus Christ was in the Whitehouse you folks would be the same disparaging way.

Nothing was ever real with Trump, as my Grandmother used to say, you can trust a thief but you can never trust a liar. No truer words, too bad Trump was both.

You have yet to address the issue with our abandoned fellow citizens that are still there. Deflection is your strong point.

Anyone who was left behind was due to their own ineptness, to do what they had to. to be clear, that would be anyone who lacked judgment, sense, competence, or reason.

FYI, when the boats leaving the dock, your priority is to be on it. They all had months and months notice of what was going to happen. Their own damn fault.

Oh my that’s classic. And pathetic. Are you and Lightfoot of Chicago related? She’s placing blame on the retail businesses for all off the smash and grab looting. It’s always someone else’s fault with the likes of you.

Wrong again. I’m not part of nor do I identify with any political party. To quote your most popular President of all time: “End of Message”.
Damn good thing it was on the teleprompter for him. He likely would have forgotten and started again to talk about any one of his other mentally deficient ramblings.
