President Biden’s “surrender to the Taliban is now complete,” former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R) declared Tuesday after the president agreed to stick to what many say is an unrealistic August 31 deadline to evacuate Americans from Afghanistan after the jihadist organization said there will be “no extensions.”
“Biden’s surrender to the Taliban is now complete. He will leave Afghanistan on the Taliban time table even if it leaves Americans and allies stranded in the country,” Gingrich said.
“His humiliation and failure is now complete,” he continued, describing the situation as the “worst moral collapse by an American President in our history”

Good thing he didn't stick to the Trump timetable and evacuate by the end of last April.

Trump draws clear red lines in the sand, unlike obummer or xiden.

You know Trump would have succeeded and the Taliban would have stayed put until the last American had been transferred

He had 4 years in office, and didn't even TRY to end the Afghanistan debacle and pull out. I hope you're not one of the "DeMoCrAtS VoTeD FoR ThE wAr ToO" hypocrites on top of believing the above fantasy has any relevance.
He was in the process of pulling out
I'm confident Trump would have pulled out successfully, he overall has a pretty good track record with results.

Why aren't you judging Trump on results in THIS case? He had 4 years and did nothing to end the quagmire. In the end, he foisted an obligation to leave on an unrealistic timeline (3 months after inauguration) upon his successor. Then guys like you give Trump credit for what he "woulda" done and how perfectly it "woulda" gone, while criticizing Biden who's the man actually taking action getting us out of there finally.

Hey ‘Merica! You can trust Uncle Joe about vaccines! He won’t lie to you or leave you behind!
The alternative to Bashir al-Assad in Syria is not liberal democracy, but Islamist rule. And in Afghanistan, after a 20-year experiment with democracy, Taliban-style Islamism is returning.
Why did liberalism fail? In short, because liberalism cannot bind people together in conditions of profound insecurity, as religion and tribalism do. Nor does liberalism provide such compelling reasons to kill or die. A man will die for heaven or kill for his brother. He might die for his vote, too, but only if he thinks there’s someone worth voting for. But a Pashtun Jeb Bush? A Muslim Joe Biden?
How America squandered its moral authority in Iraq
The true cost of the disaster in Iraq may still have to be paid
WASHINGTON, D.C.—In a press conference today, Biden assured the world that he would get every American out of Afghanistan. When asked how he would do this, he explained that on the pull-out date of August 31st he will simply revoke the American citizenship of every American who hasn't shown up at the Kabul airport yet.
"Voila! An elegant solution! Knock on wood, no malarkey!" he said to a stunned press. "If you haven't fought through 12 checkpoints of terrorist thugs and shown up at the airport by the deadline, I guess you don't want to be an American! Boom! No American left behind! Real simple, Jack!"
Biden then began hitting on a female reporter in the front row before forgetting where he was and walking aimlessly into the crowd.
"Hooray! A truly elegant solution!" the corporate press all said uneasily as Biden was ushered off stage by a team of handlers.
The Taliban issued a statement in response, saying "LOL."
Osama bin Laden once warned al Qaeda not to target Joe Biden because he believed that his inheriting the presidency if something were to happen to Barack Obama would “lead the US into a crisis,” a resurfaced letter shows.
In the letter dated May 2010, the al Qaeda 9/11 mastermind wrote he had no assassination plots against Biden because he deemed him “totally unprepared” to lead the United States.

A man in Afghanistan says "Mr. Biden, you did this! You planned this. You made the deal with the Taliban. This is the consequences of it."

Biden is 100% who y’all swore Trump was.

Haqqani, one of the brigade commanders over the Al Isha unit, bragged in an interview with Zenger News that his unit is using US-made hand-held scanners to tap into a massive US-built biometric database and positively identify any person who helped the NATO allies or worked with Indian intelligence. Afghans who try to deny or minimize their role will find themselves contradicted by the detailed computer records that the US left behind in its frenzied withdrawal.
