Joe Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan was a complete disaster.
Afghans died when they fell from planes while trying to cling to the landing gear, 13 American service members were killed in a suicide bombing, a drone strike after that killed innocent people, including children.
And Senator Elizabeth Warren thinks we should be proud of Biden over this.
She said so during a recent appearance on MSNBC.
Transcript via MSNBC:
O`DONNELL: Joining us now is Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts.
Thank you very much for joining us tonight, Senator. Really appreciate it.
What was your takeaway from the hearing about the evacuation from Afghanistan?
WARREN: That it was actually an amazing undertaking. It was done under chaotic circumstances because the government had collapsed, because the party had melted away the Afghan army and that even in the midst of all of that, our military was able to get about 124,000 people out. They left no American-owned equipment behind. They managed to execute that.
And, yes, it was at risk. We lost a young woman from Massachusetts. I`m working now on trying to get the Congressional Medal of Honor for the people who we lost right at the end. But we knew it was a risky undertaking and the military performed. We should be proud of President Biden and proud of our military.
Here’s the video:
What’s being left unsaid about the military’s recommendation to leave a force behind in Afghanistan is that it would have required more than 2,500 troops & those troops would have been needed indefinitely. I believe @POTUS & his advisors had it right: withdrawing was overdue. pic.twitter.com/RB8NIQSfKI

If Trump had handled the exit from Afghanistan as badly as Biden did, Warren would be calling for another impeachment.
She knows this is true. She is a hypocrite and she doesn’t care.
