Joe Biden

I don’t think any one of us can see these pictures, and not feel that pain on a human level.

I hope. I hope you'll go to vaccines.gov this weekend and make your appointment for next week. Because again, it's coming. What you asked for is coming.

I don't think anyone -- I don't think any one of us can see these pictures and not feel that pain on a human level.

The past week has been heartbreaking. We've seen gut-wrenching images of panicked people, acting out of sheer desperation.

The political leaders of Afghanistan were unable to come together for the good of their people, unable to negotiate for the future of their country when the chips were down.

It is wrong to order American troops to step up when Afghanistan's own armed forces would not.

American troops cannot and should not be fighting in a war and dying in a war that Afghan forces are not willing to fight for themselves.

PRESIDENT Joe Biden saying Americans can get through.

I am making the same commitment to any Afghans who want to get out.

I will bring home any American who wants to come home.

What interests do we have in Afghanistan at this point with al Qaeda gone? We went to Afghanistan for the express purpose of getting rid of al Qaeda in Afghanistan, as well as, as well as getting Osama bin Laden. And we did. What is the…

President Joe Biden is standing by his decision to withdraw from the war, refusing to call it a mistake in the face of bipartisan criticism.

You know, we`re not going to sit by as governors try to block and intimidate educators protecting our children.

Unfortunately, as we`ve seen throughout this pandemic, some politicians are trying to turn public safety measures, that is, children wearing masks in school, into political disputes for their own political gain. Some are even trying to…

No. Not at -- not in terms of whether we were going to get out in a timeframe all troops. They didn`t argue against that.

No, they didn`t. It was split. That wasn`t true. That wasn`t true.

There`s no good time to leave Afghanistan. Getting out would be messy no matter when it occurred.

The past week has been heartbreaking. We have seen gut-wrenching images of panicked people acting out of sheer desperation. You know, it's completely understandable. They're frightened. They're sad, uncertain what happens next. I don't…

What’s happening now could just as easily happen five years ago or 15 years in the future. We have to be honest. Our mission in Afghanistan has taken many missteps, made many missteps over the last two decades. I am now the fourth American…

The President says build back better and he says build back better for a reason.

It would not be a great thing to happen.

I think the polling and just they suggest most people in the U.S. even recognizing the tragedies that are happening right now, that even recognizing that there are -- this was not -- not a wise use of American power.

Americans understand we are going to try and get it done before August 31.

Unfortunately, as you’ve seen throughout this pandemic, some politicians are trying to turn public safety measures... into political disputes for their own political gain.
