Think what you will of W. Bush, but Ari Fleischer was alwaysbased:
Ex-Bush Spox Ari Fleischer Drops Hammer: ‘What Has Joe Biden Touched That He Hasn’t Bungled?’
The White House press secretary under former President George W. Bush, Ari Fleischer, has called out President Joe Biden over his underwhelming performance.
Speaking during an appearance on Sean Hannity’s show, Fleischer, who is now a Fox News contributor, said: “I think it’s fair to say when you look at Joe Biden’s career; what has Joe Biden touched that he hasn’t bungled?
“Whether it was withdrawal from Afghanistan, which he bungled the withdrawal.
“You remember when he was asked over July 4th of that year, what was happening with the Taliban taking over Afghanistan?
“And he said I don’t want to talk about that.
“Let’s talk about happy things. It’s July 4th weekend.
“And then days later, Kabul fell to the Taliban,” Fleischer said.
“Joe Biden is acquiescing America’s strength. And America doesn’t do that.
“The last president who did that was Jimmy Carter.
“The era we live in now, Sean, feels an awful lot to me like the late seventies – the Jimmy Carter era – which don’t forget was followed by morning in America, by Ronald Reagan, by strength, and by leadership.
“Nothing Joe Biden is bungling can’t be reversed if America elects the right people.
“Our country has always been built on strength.
“Not fear, but strength. Our adversaries need to know it,” he said.
