Fiddling while Kabul falls

Fiddling while Rome burns. Vacationing behind the gates of Camp David while Kabul falls.

Historians aren’t actually sure that Nero caused or neglected a fire that consumed much of ancient Rome. Historians, however much they’d like to, won’t be able to deny that President Joe Biden bears full responsibility for America’s humiliating retreat from Afghanistan and our neglect of the tens of thousands who aided us and now face torture and death from the Taliban.
