Number 3 was also a Trump thing. He set May 2021 as the date. Biden came in and pushed it back to 9/11/21. And has now pushed the 9/11 date up, but still later than Trumps date.

Of course trump was just planning it, joe gets credit for actually doing it after the last 3 presidents have only planned it.

Giving credit where it's due, I will give Biden credit for following through on getting us out regardless of where it started. He didn't have to, but he did.

Soon to be replaced with another war coming to a theater near you...

Agreed. We have been dragging our feet for too long on the subject, good to finally make a move.

A majority of Americans are too stupid to realize that all that free stuff gets wiped out by inflation. People on fixed incomes like welfare queens and retirees pay the highest price.

That and the fact that our inflation further damages our economic competitiveness with respect to the rest of the world.

Joe just gets credit for turning the lights off; almost all the troops were gone before biden ever took over the WH.

Yeah but no one had bothered to do that before.

It may have just been the final step but it was a step no one else would take.

It was a Trump decision, but people decided to cut his efforts short. If you don't credit one person because he was voted out of office before the policy was complete, then you can't give the next guy credit for something he didn't begin.

Anybody placing odds on how Trump will be blamed for the withdrawal after the Taliban creates a safe haven for terrorist?

Obama was also pulling us out of Afghanistan. So we can skip Trump and go straight to Obama.

If you get fired from your job you dont get to claim credit for the new guy finishing your work.

Biden sidesteps Chicago shootings for ‘boring’ speech in swing suburb
By David Marcus

July 7, 2021 | 8:58pm


President Biden largely ignored the 100-plus people shot in Chicago this past weekend during a Tuesday speech outside the Windy City that he admitted was “boring” — before stumbling on the stairs while leaving the stage.

An unidentified man sprang into action and put his hand on Biden’s back to steady the 78-year-old commander in chief following his appearance at at McHenry County College in the battleground suburb of Crystal Lake, Ill.

But you would have said Petey was a great choice so it’s hard to take you seriously.

I never wanted Pete anywhere near the Vice Presidency last election. And it didn't really matter anyways, after Biden started to run away with the votes against the Bern, Biden said explicitly he was going to pick a woman POC for VP. I wasn't exactly thrilled Pete got DOT honestly (he is amply qualified for it, but I still wasn't happy about it), but you go with what you get (given his exemplary communication skills and mastery of six languages, I thought he'd be a shoe-in for UN, but that didn't happen). I think Pete has done an amazing job selling the Biden Admin's infrastructure proposals and his other policy proposals to the American people. Biden has put Pete out in the media as a sort of second-spokesman for a reason; Pete was the primary candidate that continuously went on Fox News and other conservative media outlets to try to reach and talk to voters Dems usually ignore. I mean, Pete's presidential primary campaign took off after a town hall on Fox News when he received a standing ovation. It doesn't phase or bother Pete to do a Fox News town hall, CNBC interview, etc. Can't say that for other Dems (save for Bernie, he did the one town hall, credit when credit is due, even though he isn't a Democrat). Hell, Marsha Blackburn even likes Pete, and she is a bigoted homophobe. I don't like that Pete is hamstrung by the Admin with what he can say or do in media, but he is getting his name out there now. That will prove valuable down the road.

What Is Pete Buttigieg Doing?

Here’s the winner of the 2020 Iowa caucus, living out his grand political plan to … how exactly would it work? Something like: He takes an inherently snoozer job as a low-ranking Cabinet official, spends a few years quietly kissing up to mostly forgettable members of Congress with talk about railroads and broadband, and going on TV to defend the administration. Along the way, he counts on Biden not to run again and Kamala Harris not to emerge as Biden’s natural heir. If everything comes together perfectly, the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, becomes the first president since Herbert Hoover to have come out of the Cabinet.
