Joe Biden sold himself to the American people as a foreign policy heavyweight during the election last year and claimed President Trump was ruining America’s reputation abroad. The liberal media, academics and pundits backed him to the hilt and suggested things could only get better under Biden. How wrong they were. The Taliban is now in control of Afghanistan and Americans are fleeing the capital Kabul. People are comparing these chaotic scenes to the fall of Saigon in 1975 when U.S. forces fled Vietnam. So what does the Biden administration and his mainstream media allies do now? Well they’re blaming everyone but themselves.
