Joe Biden gave a terrible briefing about Afghanistan today, where he lied a lot, and Jennifer Griffin of Fox said it was difficult to keep up with all the false statements.

But Joe Biden did answer a few questions.
The pre-approved list Biden chose to ask questions: Justin Zink, Bloomberg; Stephanie Ramos, ABC; Meredith Lee, PBS; Scott Detro, NPR. That’s it.

Unfortunately, his reaction was as bad as his remarks.
For example, he refused to promise to stay in the Americans after August 31, if they had not let everyone who needed it leave by then.
Joe Biden did not promise to save all Americans stranded in Afghanistan after the August 31 deadline.

But one exchange did make people ask questions.
NPR reporter Scott Detrow asked Biden if he really said that Americans would not be able to reach Kabul Airport under any circumstances because it did not match the information the reporter had learned locally. In fact, this is what Biden said in his speech.

Detro asked: “Are you making it clear that any American who wants to get to the airport will get there, cross the security barrier, and board the plane they want to go?” Listen to Biden’s response.
NPR: You mean that any American can get to the airport, pass the security barrier, and then get to where they need to go?
Biden: As far as we know, the Taliban are letting people with American passports pass.

Biden said: “I think the question is-how can they get to the airport outside the airport.” “The answer is, as far as we know, the Taliban checkpoint is letting people who show their American passports pass.”
Not only did he fail to answer the question asked, but he also said “I think the question is” and replaced what was asked with what was not said. It sounds like the reporter may have deviated from the script and did not ask questions that Biden thought he would ask, so Biden decided to answer only the questions he thought Detro would ask.
Now, this convinces people on the Internet that Biden has answered a planned question.
Detro denied it. He did ask Biden a very good question.
I am as shocked as you are, false information is everywhere on the Internet, but I did not submit any questions to anyone beforehand or knew that I would be invited. Biden said “I think the problem is…” because I am following up on his answer to someone earlier.

But the fact is that, no matter which way, Biden did not answer this question, he just answered the question he wanted to answer. He never answered Detro’s question about ensuring the safety of American citizens.So if he should In the words of Kate Bedingfield, so “focused on the laser”, Regarding the withdrawal of Americans and allies, why his “laser focus” is not enough to answer this simple question?
At the same time, as we reported, it is reported that Americans Was beaten on the way to the airport There are still many people who did not pass. According to reports, the Taliban are also shooting door to door at people working with the United States. People want answers, but trying to get anything similar to actions or feelings from Joe Biden seems impossible.
