There is a famous saying, "When they say no, it means yes."

[BigtimeAL]

Blinken: “I’ve tried nothing and I’m all out of ideas “

[jedifam]

We all knew what he meant. Quit acting like we're stupid

[patio]

Why is our LEADER saying the opposite? Why do secretaries have to correct our LEADER all the time?

[neilschmid]

He got the "they have no strategy" part right.

[williammurray]

Neither does the US government have a strategy for securing its borders, energy independence, domestic agriculture, interstate transportation or commerce, equitable taxation, nor any of the things listed in the preamble of the US Constitution.

The world heard what Biden said. Blinken saying Biden didn't say that doesn't change the fact Biden said it.

[Scott-cuol]

We all watched President Biden on television and we all heard what he said and I’m getting very tired of other people in the administration constantly walking back his comments.

Biden went off script for 3 seconds, the entire state department had to work the entire weekend

[americanpaisareturns]

See… Brandon is a puppet.
The keep having to walk back on everything that comes out of his mouth.

[vincentcoke]

Fun fact:
Biden is the lunatic they said Trump was.

[krisswegemer]

This was about regime change from the beginning. Are there people who didn't know that?

[LabTech]

Just because they don't have a strategy, doesn't mean they won't try to do it, and then get the media to once again cheerlead how the disaster was somehow actually a win.
I actually wouldn't mind this as much if the evil was at least competent, but there's nothing worse than incompetent evil.

[orangetuono]

Whew. And I was worried we might end up in WW3. I feel so much better now.

[markd]

"For gods sake this man cannot remain in power."

I thought the president was talking about himself.

[Mahtoor]

“For God’s sake this man(Putin) can not remain in power!!! “
