Biden 'hubris,' generals' lack of plan led to 'sloppy' Afghanistan exit, ex-Green Beret says
|
 [Just The News] President Biden showed "hubris" by rejecting the Trump administration's withdrawal plan from Afghanistan, and it "gave the Taliban three months of prime fighting season" to take over the country, retired Green Beret and congressional candidate Joe Kent told the John Solomon Reports podcast on Wednesday.
Kent served in the military for over 20 years, was deployed 11 times, and lost his wife in action while she was fighting against ISIS in Syria. He is now running for a congressional seat in Washington state.
Kent criticized the Biden administration's mishandling of the Afghanistan withdrawal.
"What I think happened with Biden is he wanted to have his cake and eat it, too," said Kent. "He didn't want to give Trump the victory of following Trump's withdrawal plan in May. So he's kind of like the guy that's riding a crocodile, hoping it eats him last."
