curious that Trump is not getting the screaming hysterical condemnation from the media that Biden got when he faced facts and ended the Afghanistan occupation

Biden honored the deal TRUMP made in Afghanistan.

No video of people falling off airplanes, etc. That's basically it.

Michael Planey · Jun 17

Yes. Very curious, indeed…

MAGA is not self-reflective.

People tried to claim that the media loves war but they really just love Republicans.

@mrrexdart.bsky.social · Jun 18

It's probably because they like Trump and want to help him.

Gee. Do you think they display bias? Have asymmetrical standards? Surely not.

so curious!

even George W. Bush got crosswise with the MSM when Iraq turned into a disaster. Trump can create a similar catastrophic defeat except much, much faster and the reaction is "huh, that's unusual. anyway," bsky.app/profile/gene...

I don't think that Joe Biden ending the Afghanistan occupation. All President Biden did was fulfill the terms of President Trump's surrender to the Taliban.

Gasp! Why I never! You'd have them be mean to the very special birthday boy whose birthday is every day of the year??? Think of what his voters uh... I mean parents would say!

I remember Richard Engel being particularly hysterical about Biden.

The Israel side is trying, we’re backsliding, so we’ll see what happens when the rubber meats the road on the IDF leaving Lebanon. Strait’s still closed (to anyone but Iranian approved tankers)

Ah yes, the Afghanistan withdrawal ... the end result of another botched deal made by Trump.

Media's love of Trump might be the only thing stronger than their general bloodlust

Rhys Davies · Jun 17

Biden's decision to cut the Gordian knot and get swiftly out of Afghanistan is the best foreign policy decision that I've seen a US president make in my adult lifetime. History will judge him well for it.

Tis curious

@twistedphilosopher.bsky.social · Jun 17

The very same pullout TRUMP HIMSELF NEGOTIATED. Oligarch media must be ignored at all costs.

Media and trump

Trump and Pompeo surrendered to the Taliban in Doha ten months before Biden took office.

Wrygrin · Jun 17

The media has never held Trump 1/100th as accountable as Biden, on anything.

Holli Winters · Jun 17

This is what happens when the GOP controls most of the media.

He cried fake news for so long they decided to oblige

@dransct.bsky.social · Jun 17

MSM is all in for Trump

Bill Robison · Jun 17

Why? No media ever covered how Trump was actually responsible for the specifics of the Afghanistan withdrawal. Why would they cover him accurately now?

Lluttig · Jun 17

Because Biden didn’t own corporate media.

Julie Wash · Jun 17

That’s because the CIA section directing the media is working for Trump. Just like the CIA was all in with Nixon against the Washington Post when Katherine Graham was publishing Watergate info. Because the CIA was included.

@tension352.bsky.social · Jun 17

His optics are better. Never having boots on the ground means no "embarrassing" retreats, at least for low info broadcasters.

@cynharp777.bsky.social · Jun 17

The disastrous withdrawal was set up by Dump…of course…another one of his surrender “deals” with the Taliban….Biden did what he could given the bad hand he was given!

Poocharé · Jun 17

When he, in fact, did what Trump committed the country to.

Marc Reeve · Jun 18

“that Biden got when he ended the Afghanistan occupation on the timetable established by Trump.” FTFY

Because billionaires own the media and billionaires love them some Trump
