Could Joe Biden Handle A Military Crisis That Directly Involves The United States?

Yes EOD.

A two post thread. No more responses needed!

 

Be TERRIFIED!!

 

If you're talking about the withdrawal from Afghanistan keep in mind that Biden's predecessor committed to the total withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan by May 1, 2021, three months prior to Biden's August 31 date; that he (Trump) negotiated with the Taliban without giving a seat at the table to the then government of Afghanistan; that Trump reduced the US troop level in Afghanistan to 2,000 against the recommendation of his own generals and that Trump pressured the former government of Afghanistan release of 5,000 Taliban prisoners including a number designated as terrorists. If anyone failed the test of leadership it was Biden's predecessor.

I agree that it would be nice to have someone with more mental fitness wearing the hat of the commander in chief. That description would clearly exclude Biden's predecessor who praised Vladimir Putin as a genius as well as the guy who referred to the Russian invasion of Ukraine as a "territorial dispute".

Righties would probably want him to fail, but I think he could handle it just fine.

 

It would be tough with half the country literally pulling for our adversary - but I think Dark Brandon could pull it off.

 

Unlike Trump who thought that he knew more than the generals Biden would defer to Lloyd Austin, his Secretary of Defense and former Centcom Commander as well as the Joint Chiefs of Staff on military issues.
Trump claimed he knew ‘more than the generals.’ Now they want nothing to do with him.

 

Joe Biden, the thief in chief, I'm sorry to say, could not pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were on the heel! I'd be interested to know what you guys have been looking at for the past 2.5 years. We are indeed in trouble when half of the country is blind! Everything the guy touches turns to crap. Remember what the great Barach Hussen Obama said about his VP. And I quote, " Never underestimate Joe's ability to f--k things up!!

 

Which is why I think he’d handle it fine, he’d have no problem deferring to and listening to the experts. Feels comforting to have that type of maturity in power again.

 

It's impressive how many of you either are truly ignorant of how our government works or are willing to pretend to be ignorant to criticize a President you don't like. Dark Brandon isn't going to need to jump in a tank and lead on the frontlines. The Secretary of Defense (who is a retired four-star general), Joint Chiefs, and other military leaderships will handle it just fine.

 

Just a correction regarding the identity of the thief in chief. Some examples:
Trump golf club charged Secret Service $10,000 for rooms in May, records show
Trump properties got almost $2 million from the Secret Service, including stays at Mar-a-Lago, documents show
Air Force crew made an odd stop on a routine trip: Trump’s Scottish resort
The Air Force spent more at Trump’s Scottish resort than originally thought
Documents Detail Foreign Government Spending at Trump Hotel
Trump D.C. hotel receipts show $10,500 rooms for foreign officials seeking to influence U.S.
Although he ended up backing off, this was probably Trump's most outrageous attempt to enrich himself on the taxpayer's dime.
Trump's National Doral Miami golf course to host G7 summit
After backlash, Trump says his Doral resort won’t host G-7 summit

 

He's made some mistakes, IMO, but so has every president we've had since I've been alive - so that isn't really shocking to me.

But the guy came into office with the country literally on fire and about the most divided it had been in at least a generation, coming off of a horrible pandemic that crippled the economy, with our old cold war rival literally trying to expand the empire in eastern Europe, and with all of that and everything else, he has been pretty stable. Very little drama from the white house in the past 2 years, despite facing these immense challenges.

Is he perfect? no. Is he kind of what we all hoped for after Trump? Pretty much.

 

he would not defer, he would, along with hopefully giggles harris, be put under lock and guard

 

What planet are you guys living on? No drama for 2 years? That is because the dumb ass media does not report anything that makes the democratic party look bad! Unfricking believable!!

 

If war were to break out, I'll take Biden at 80% over you at 110% every day of the week.

 

Objective

 

I’d rather not find out, not because of lack of confidence in Biden, I just don’t want to see the US burn anymore blood or treasure on the other side of the world.

To the OP I don’t have a clue how Biden would do.

 

As opposed to that Orange surrender monkey Biden replaced I’d say President Biden would be an exemplary Commander in Chief. I can’t think of a single Republican I’d trust in a time of conflict. After all the republicans want to cut the military.
