Despite barely being able to string along a coherent sentence, Joe Biden conducted himself fairly well against Donald Trump during last year’s presidential debates. Voters who were on the fence probably saw this and figured conservative pundits were lying when they said Joe was a bumbling dope.
But that’s just not true. The former VP just presented himself well, for once.
Because of his decades of gaffes, Biden’s handlers will keep from from taking questions from the press on a daily basis. That’s not how a leader handles himself.
From The Daily Wire:
Democrat President Joe Biden ran away from reporters who asked him, following a pandemic press conference, about his administration’s disaster in Afghanistan.
One of the reporters could be heard shouting at Biden, “Do you know how many Americans are left in Afghanistan?”

Here’s more concerning Joe…
NEW: House Intel Chair Adam Schiff just left a classified intel briefing on Afghanistan and broke a significant amount of news. Here are some of the highlights.
First he said getting all Americans and allies out of the country by 8/31 is unlikely..— Ryan Nobles (@ryanobles) August 24, 2021
“Given the number of Americans who still need to be evacuated, the number of SIVs, the number of others who are members of the Afghan press, civil society leaders women leaders. It's hard for me to imagine all of that can be accomplished between now and the end of the month,”

Schiff also said he was concerned about the security of the airport in Kabul:
“I think the threat to the airport is very real and very substantial and this has been a concern of mine for, for some days now that this would make a very attractive target for ISIS."— Ryan Nobles (@ryanobles) August 24, 2021
Finally Schiff said that the intel community was very aware that the Taliban had the ability to take over the country.
"the intelligence agencies assessments of the Afghan government's ability to maintain itself became increasingly pessimistic,” he said. (more)— Ryan Nobles (@ryanobles) August 24, 2021
…“Over the course of the last six months. And there were any number of warnings that the Taliban might take over, and some that included a potential of a very rapid, the Afghan government enforces."

Schiff's take was echoed by Intel Committee Member Jason Crow:
"I do not believe at this point, sitting here today, that I have any evidence of a intelligence failure," Crow- a Democrat- told @jeremyherb— Ryan Nobles (@ryanobles) August 24, 2021
