Hiding in your basement might be good political strategy for a Presidential candidate, but if done by the President it is dereliction of duty.

Bunker Biden?

Speaking of hiding, where is VP Harris? I think the odds of her running for president in 2024 just dropped to near zero.

he President on Thursday had used the threat of police retaliation and military intervention in Minnesota where protests turned violent and destructive -- saying on Twitter that "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." Trump's weekend tweets also invoked imagery tied to brutal civil rights-era police tactics.
Now, a serious divide has emerged among the President's top allies and advisers over how the President should address several nights of protests and riots.

Trump is being urged by some advisers to formally address the nation and call for calm, while others have said he should condemn the rioting and looting more forcefully or risk losing middle-of-the-road voters in November, according to several sources familiar with the deliberations.
This story has been updated with new reporting about White House staffers being advised to hide their passes coming into and leaving work.

CNN's Kate Bennett, Kevin Liptak, Noah Broder and Brian Todd contributed to this report.

WHEN THE LOOTING STARTS,THE SHOOTING STARTS.....(police retaliation and military intervention)

Remember when President Trump said he didn't trust US intelligence or the generals? The Left mocked him. President Biden trusted the generals and Intel bureaus and now he looks like a fool as the Afghan National Army collapsed in weeks instead of months.

Homeagain,
What I "got" from your post is that you have once again violated the rules of posting on MMT. You do not give a source for your 4 paragraph missive other than to say that some CNN reporters contributed, In that complete sentences are used unlike any of the post that you yourself compose the plagiarism is easy to ascertain.

Other than that, what does this comment have to do with Afghanistan?

President Biden has warned the Civil Airline Reserve that the US may start requisitioning American airline flight crews and airplanes to start flying refugees out of Asia but not Afghanistan. I have to think this will overburden already stressed domestic passenger services.
