THE WHITE HOUSE — President Joe Biden said in a press conference on Saturday that his messaging surrounding the evacuation efforts in Afghanistan is going real great.
“We’ve successfully spun the story to the American people that the withdrawal is nothing but a great foreign policy success,” the president said, “despite the obvious catastrophe unfolding before our eyes. Give us some credit for those messaging efforts, c’mon man.”
The president went on to say that his trips to Camp David and Delaware really helped him to clear his mind and think of clever ways to communicate his dereliction of duty strategically to the American people, finding ways not to make this all seem like the fall of Saigon or the 1979 hostage crisis.
