Biden the phony gave a dishonest speech

 John Kass:

Joe Biden read what they gave him to read about his “extraordinary success” in Afghanistan. And once again he became that angry old man at the end of the bar at closing time.

He used that special voice of his, the Commander McBragg voice, the one he uses to recount his fabulist heroic exploits, from vanquishing the mythical thug “Corn Pop” in their titanic rumble behind the pool or lying about the time he was mythically arrested trying to visit Nelson Mandela in jail.

The words they gave him to read bore him aloft, as if upon the wings of eagles. And as he spoke, he seemed to believe his own myths, Biden as Horatius at the Bridge, Joe as our Churchill during Dunkirk, getting us out of Afghanistan and that 20-year war.

He spoke for more than 20 minutes. And for all that time, he didn’t look at his watch. Not even once.

Days before, Biden checked his watch again and again while at the “dignified transfer” ceremony of those Marines killed in his disastrous withdrawal, killed by the terrorists the Taliban let through with their bombs to the crowded Kabul airport wall.

The Gold Star parents were disgusted with Biden, for checking his watch repeatedly as if he had something better to do. But Biden-friendly media buried their disgust, allowing him to prattle on and on.

“No nation, no nation has ever done anything like it in all of history,” Biden said of the airlift of Americans and unvetted Afghans out of Afghanistan. “Only the United States had the capacity and the will and the ability to do it, as we did it today.”

What he meant was that only he had the will and ability. Shameless.

He blamed former President Trump for his failure in Afghanistan, gaslighting the American people by saying he had no choice but to follow Trump’s plan. But he cancelled all of Trump’s other policies, from restricting the flow of illegal aliens at our now wide-open Southern Border, to the Iran nuclear deal.

And in the words they gave him to read, there wasn’t anything about Biden breaking his promise to Americans he left behind.

Just days ago, he told Clinton Donor Zero George Stephanopoulos in an interview on ABC that he’d delay leaving Afghanistan as he planned on Aug. 31, so as not to leave Americans behind.

“If there’s American citizens left, we’re gonna stay to get them all out,” Biden said.

Biden left them behind to the mercies of the Taliban. He blamed those who remain there for wanting to stay, though we know now that many were barred from approaching the airport in Kabul by the Taliban and are now, in effect, hostages.

“Ninety percent of Americans in Afghanistan who wanted to leave were able to leave by the deadline,” he boasted. “And for those remaining Americans, there is no deadline. We remain committed to getting them out if they want to come out.”

Is there anything quite like a president blaming people he left behind after he promised to never abandon them? No.
...

There is more.

Unfortunately, we will be presented with more lies from this man.  About the only speech, I am interested in from his would-be a resignation speech that would hopefully be a short one.
