I can see his point. A "Saigon", and then a "Black Hawk Down" in the same week would look bad. But on the bright side Joe, you really can't look any worse.
The BEST time to take action is before the enemy digs in.
Time isn't working on our side. Things will only get worse as the days go by.
Either USE the troops... or remove them. Why are we staging soldiers at the Kabul airport, with orders not to do anything... except to act as targets?
If Washington DC REALLY wants to evacuate 10,000 Americans from Afghanistan... and get them safely to the airport within 3 days without using U.S. troops, then the solution is easy. Hire the Russian Mafia. Pay them $10,000 cash for every American evacuee brought safely to the Kabul airport for transportation. Only pay $1,000 cash for any wounded ones that arrive.
For $100 Million, the Russian mafia would see all 10,000 Americans delivered at the Kabul airport within 3 days. They would arrive stuffed in car trunks, strapped to luggage racks, dressed in Hijabs, etc... but they would arrive.
Well, Joe's little shit-show just gets worse and worse. But MOST POPULAR PRESIDENT EVER, am I right? Right?

Just for entertainment purposes, let's plan a Drag Joe Biden's Ass Through Mogadishu parade. He needs to experience it first-hand.
