Biden: “I Was Instructed To Call On…,” Hangs Head In Presidency-Defining Image

Biden gave a sort of press conference today after suicide bombers killed dozens of Afghans and 13 US service members due directly to his incompetent leadership, his poor withdrawal plan, and the abysmal execution of that poor withdrawal plan.

As usual, it was entirely unimpressive.

But a few specific moments during this presser really stood out as exemplifying his entire presidency thus far.

Firstly, he announced from the podium,

“Ladies and Gentlemen, they gave me a list here. The first person I was instructed to call on was Kelly O’Donnell of NBC.”

Here, let me translate that for you into “reality speak.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, they gave me a list of pre-approved reporters who have promised to stick to pre-approved questions so I can then stick to my teleprompter and notes for the pre-approved answers to the pre-approved questions by the pre-approved reporters, so I don’t risk getting confused by being required to use a modicum of cognitive ability and end up saying something damaging to the narrative.
The first person I was instructed by my handlers to call on, because this is all scripted for me and I’m not the least bit cognitively capable of making my own decisions, is Kelly O’Donnell of NBC.”

Instructed. The President of the United States is so incompetent and cognitively impaired that his staff has to give him a list of reporters and instruct him on which ones to call on because he can’t even be trusted to take questions by himself. In fact, him even sticking around for questions was a shock to everyone, considering he usually turns tail and hobbles out of the room as fast as possible.

Then, during questions, Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked Biden whether he accepts responsibility for the complete disaster that has been his withdrawal plan, and everything that has resulted from it.

Biden said,

“I bear responsibility for fundamentally all that’s happened of late… But you know as well as I do that a former president made a deal with the Taliban that he would get all American forces out of Afghanistan by May 1…”
