This summer, Biden declared to Europe that "America is Back" and was once again going to be a partner with Europe. No more "America first." Yet he did not consult with or inform any of the U.S. allies of his intentions in Afghanistan. I watched BBC world News today and he is being slammed in the press in Europe.
Member of Parliament Tom Tugendhat said - "To see their commander in chief call into question the courage of men I fought with, to claim that they ran. It's shameful,. "Those who have never fought for the colors they fly should be careful about criticizing those who have," he continued.
MP Huw Merriman called Biden a “total blithering idiot."
Another former minister, Simon Clarke, said it was the end of an American era. “The more you reflect, the more you realize the speech [Biden] gave last night was grotesque. An utter repudiation of the America so many of us have admired so deeply all our lives – the champion of liberty and democracy and the guardian of what’s right in the world,” he said.
This will be Biden's legacy that he will never recover from. Unfortunately it will also have repercussions for years to come, not only for the U.S., but the world. Is it any wonder that in a European poll this summer, most Europeans believe that China will surpass the U.S. as the leading World Power in the next 10 years?
Oh and as for the title of this thread - I think we all know now what the truth is.
