1. This whole media meltdown is such bullshit.

Do they know how ignorant they sound?

[Warpy]

16. Print media are a little more realistic about it

which is why I avoid broadcast media.

[Atticus]

2. I agree with Mr. Reich, but several here appear to think the Biden administration is "over". nt

[Cha]

4. Yeah Too bad they bought into the

M$$$$$M Bullshit.

[Moebym]

5. There is a contingent

Of Chicken Littles on this site.

I'm no sunny optimist, but I find their defeatist attitude grating and utterly unhelpful. It may even be damaging.

[Cha]

8. I agree.. this is NO..

"Game Over, Man!"!

Fight the M$$$$$M Bullshit.. don't give into it.

11. democrats have this thing about eating their own...

we have the White House , the Senate, and the House but oh shit what about 2022-2024!!! ...Joe promised to get us out of a 20 year debacle, a war that cost us fathers, mothers, sons, daughters...arms/legs/faces..getting out was always going to be a clusterfuck...too many variables and outliers...Joe knows this..he also knows that as the situation on the ground changes so do the solutions...everything is fluid..what I find particularly disgusting is that Dems are supposed have Joe's back so why the fuck are so many buying into the war hungry GOP/MSM narrative?..and something else..there's a whole generation of 20/30 somethings who don't give a damn about Afghanistan...they do give a damn about a return to life without Covid, jobs, equal rights, gun reform, voting rights...so how about a show of support instead of knives out!!!

12. Yes there is and they are annoying.

[Hoyt]

3. Agree with that. Biden is not significantly weakened, at least yet.

He has to get most of the Americans and eligible Afghans out. But not necessarily by August, September, or longer.

And he may get pressured in humanitarian aspects.

And he has to avoid conflicting messages among the WH, military, State Department, intelligence, video media reports, etc. Have faith in Biden, but still. . . . . . this is a big friggin deal that some people seem satisfied with mediocre, at best so far.

[Moebym]

6. This is a good take.

I just hope that they are paying close attention to the situation on the ground and won't be caught off-guard again.

[Cha]

7. No "Not Yet" .. but the M$$$$$$$M would

like it to be.. seems they miss being called "FAKE NEWS"!

Robert Reich is Dead ON.. too bad some are buying into the M$$$$$$M BullShit.

They're still calling this "CHAOS!"

13. The corporate media are ready to swing toward

the old Republican establishment, e.g. Cheneys and Bushes, as they try to take back the Republican party from the Trumpists. So Biden's bold move in Afghanistan is too radical for them. They (conservative non-Trumpists) do not like the foreign policy reset that Biden is making.

15. TY Rt!

[Rhiannon12866]

19. Thanks!

I think it's important to emphasize who got us into this mess - and who's getting us out!

[Cha]

20. Exactly.. the m$$$$m won't do it..

so Social Media is On the Case!

[Jon King]

10. I don't think many voters give a crap.

It won't even matter in 2 weeks time. The number of people who pay attention to the news is a small fraction of the country. With football season starting, not many will give a hoot in a few weeks.

No one is going to vote for Desantis in 2024 because Biden had the Afghanistan thing 3 years prior.

[Cha]

14. Not for the M$$$$$$M lack of

trying..

I hope so.. I'm concerned about the magats running in th Midterms in Swing states.

[myohmy2]

17. exactly...

...there' no problem...trump would do better?

...if all these slimy Republicans and their stooges are so upset why didn't they and trump starting pulling people out years ago instead of trying to overthrow our government?

...they're hostile to letting people in, they're hostile to not letting people in...

...Republicans are assholes...

18. Joe Walsh can go and take Clint Eastwood's advice and go fuck himself...

Arsonists don’t get to b!+c$ about the smoke from the fire.
