That reminds me of that old Jack Nicholson movie line, "You can't
handle the truth!"

This is one of those really bizarre statements that you make that show
that you're completely out of touch with reality.  All Fox analysts
I've heard -- and also many on MSNBC and the BBC as well -- are
contemptuous of the Taliban and say that the Taliban will start raping
girls as soon as the Americans leave.  They're also contemptuous of
Biden for "cutting and running" and trusting the Taliban, in order to
get a photo op on 9/11.  So the truth is the exact opposite of what
you're saying.

• Biden crying in response to a question at an 8/27 press conference

Donald Trump, a man who has no feelings for anyone other than himself, would never cry except for himself unless as an act. 

President Biden can feel for others' loss. That makes a huge difference.
