Obama’s Former Ambassador to Afghanistan: I Question Biden’s ‘Ability to Lead Our Nation’

Paul Bois 15 Aug 2021

The fall of Afghanistan has shocked Obama’s former ambassador to such a degree that he is now questioning President Joe Biden’s ability to lead the nation.

Speaking with The Spokesman-Review, Ryan Crocker, who served as Obama’s ambassador from 2011 to 2012, lamented that the Biden administration failed to see the Taliban’s swift takeover when preparing for the withdrawal from Afghanistan.

“I think the direction was predictable; the trajectory was not,” he said. “What President Biden has done is to embrace the Afghan policy of President Trump, and this is the outcome.”

Just a little over a month ago, Joe Biden rejected assertions that U.S. withdrawal would lead to another “Fall of Saigon” moment, wherein Americans and their allies would be fleeing Kabul as the country crumbled around them.

“Mr. President, some Vietnamese veterans see echoes of their experience in this withdrawal in Afghanistan. Do you see any parallels between this withdrawal and what happened in Vietnam?” Biden was asked on July 8.

We are in for a very interesting 3 1/2 years
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Unsurprising, as the Biden Men have a degree of senility in their genes, dating back generations.
Further, he was never a presence while in the Senate and was simply a reliable vote who had
trouble concentrating. He's ageing quickly and matters have only gotten worse.

I had the probability of Biden finishing his term at 20-30%.  Now I am more inclined to place it a 5-10%.
