He just wanted Americans to think he was doing great, essentially lying to Americans to improve his image.
Because let's face it, why else would be do that? Surely it wasn't for the afghans, their president would be saying there is Taliban on tv as the people watched the Taliban take over.
So he just assumed Americans would be stupid and believe that everything was going great over there and that Biden did the impossible by bringing peace to the middle east or some other such shit.
There is nothing wrong here... Please stop thinking from the American side and think from Afghan side
They knew they were going to loose, just how badly was in question...
If Biden and Afghan President came out and said they are loosing the war, this is the same as raising white flag. Mass surrender from the Afghan army overnite.
Taliban would have no opposition...
Trump had signed a very bad deal. It was surrender and he took his troops out of Afghanistan before terms of the surrender could be executed...
Biden had only small preccence in Afghanistan and huge Taliban Army rising the day he took charge
If he had even a sizeable army on the field he could have negotiated a withdrawal to include safe passage for US Citizens and friendlies..
So why did Trump's withdrawal agreement include safe passage for Foreigners(e.g. US Citizens) and US Friendlies?
