Biden said:

*"We completed one of the biggest airlifts in history, with more than
120,000 people evacuated to safety."  *

And that was true. Biden also said the "*extraordinary success*" of that
airlift was not due to him but "*was due to the incredible skill, bravery,
and selfless courage of the United States military and our diplomats and
intelligence professionals*". Trump would have claimed all the credit to
himself.

Biden also admitted he made a serious error in judgment:

*"The assumption was that more than 300,000 Afghan National Security Forces
that we had trained over the past two decades and equipped would be a
strong adversary in their civil wars with the Taliban. That assumption —
that the Afghan government would be able to hold on for a period of time
beyond military drawdown — turned out not to be accurate."*

Even Trump, dumb as he is, was smart enough to know the Afghan war was
never going to end in success  and that's why he issued an order to remove
all forces from Afghanistan by January 15, five days before the end of his
term. But Trump was also smart enough to know that the last few days in
Afghanistan were going to be ugly, so that's why he chickened out and
rescinded that order and let Biden do the dirty work that needed to be
done.

Compared to the megadeath caused by COVID-19, the social an economic
disruption AI will cause in the near future, and the constant threat of
thermonuclear war we've all been under for over half a century, the border
"crisis" is no crisis at all, it is at most a mild irritant.

 The inflation we have today is not even an irritant, it is a healthy
economic development.

The crime rate is dramatically lower than it was 30 years ago and is
completely trivial compared to any of the real crises I described above.  But
if you want to get a Trump zombie to start slobbering all you have to do is
mention the word "crime",  just like Pavlov's dogs started slobbering as
soon as they heard a bell ring.

What the hell do you mean by that? And the above is a perfect example of
one of Spudboy's patented garbage links that add precisely nothing to the
conversation. I was foolish to even click on it.
