Here with Reaction, Donald Trump Jr.
is with us. I saw the president's schedule today, and that was about COVID. No questions, no discussions, no updates, no plan, nothing at all to help our fellow Americans.
And by the way, the interpreters and all the people that we promised, if this day ever came, we would protect them and get them out of there.
Not necessarily bring them here, but we would bring them to safety.
None of that has happened.
Your reaction? Well, I'm surprised they didn't do the press conference from an ice cream shop, Sean, because that's all he's been capable of doing.
But it's an absolute embarrassment.
The reality is this.
As far as I am aware, Joe Biden has created the largest hostage situation, perhaps in the history of the world.
If we have between 10 and 40,000 Americans blockaded off From an airport that our embassy.
Now, when we say embassy, we have to use air quotes, John, because the embassy has fallen to the Taliban.
So a bureaucrat from D.C. is saying they can't guarantee their safety, but they should get there anyway.
They've been blockaded by the Taliban.
They're trapped by a terrorist regime.
This is arguably the largest hostage situation in history.
And it's all on Joe Biden.
He took my father's plan and he wanted to change it because he wanted to make it his own.
He wanted to be the one to get credit.
So rather than doing it in the late spring before the fighting season and using your brain and knowledge and listening to the guys that are the door kickers, not the generals, that have been too busy worrying about critical race theory and learning about white rage, which no one had ever heard of prior to last week, He didn't. He wanted to make it his own so he could get credit.
And he made stupid decisions.
And now he owns all of it.
And he owns the largest hostage situation I have ever heard of.
And I imagine that anyone else has ever heard of.
You know, I had Mark Meadows.
He's one of a few sources that I have that confirmed to me a phone call that your father had when he spoke the first time to the Taliban leader.
And in essence, and your dad kind of confirmed it when he was on the show last night, the call went something like this.
You saw what I did to the caliphate.
You saw how I destroyed them in record time.
Let me be very clear.
If any comma is missed, any dot to any agreement you violate, if any harm comes to any one American, what you saw in my defeat of the caliphate will be nothing in comparison.
And that apparently, your father said, do you understand me?
He said that, said these words, do you fully understand what I am telling you what will happen?
Apparently they said, then your father said, and kind of Trumpy in form, okay, now we can begin our negotiations.
That was confirmed to me by numerous people.
I doubt Joe Biden had that as part of his plan.
No, Joe Biden got rid of all contingencies.
Had they violated any of those things, they would have been droning them on the roads coming in there.
But Joe Biden didn't want to do that.
Joe Biden, again, he wanted it on his own.
But the difference primarily, Sean, and we know this, we understand the Taliban.
They understand strength.
They understand resolve.
And they look at Joe Biden and they know he has none of those things.
The man cannot walk up a flight of stairs.
The man cannot get through a sentence.
He can't answer questions from a press corps that is effectively his marketing department and has been for the Democrats for the last few decades.
Donald Trump was not afraid to take those questions, whether it was during COVID or any other time.
He would get up there and answer them for hours.
Joe Biden can't be bothered.
He could barely be bothered to take a few minutes off of his vacation while the world burns.
And that's the difference.
The Taliban know that.
They're going to take advantage of it.
And guess what, Sean? They're not the only ones going to take advantage of it.
Because our enemies and our allies alike are watching.
They watch Joe Biden turn their backs on not only Americans, but our allies.
China is chomping at the BIC, because whatever their schedule was to take over Taiwan, it just accelerated rapidly.
They know and our allies know that America can't be counted on to have their backs anymore because you have weak and feckless leaders like Joe Biden, empty suits, pretty much empty brains, making the decisions and or listening to generals that have simply focused on being woke rather than doing their damn jobs.
And it's a disgrace and it shouldn't be happening in this country.
I couldn't say it any better.
