Three years after the tumultuous and embarrassing exit of U.S. troops from Afghanistan during President Joe Biden&#8217;s administration, Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic frontrunner for 2024, is facing criticism from Donald Trump and other conservatives regarding her involvement in the situation. There\u2019s no doubt she played a part in it. Just ask her; during an April 2021 conversation with CNN&#8217;s Dana Bash about finalizing withdrawal plans (which unfolded far messier than anticipated due to planning flaws), Harris confirmed her role: <\/p>\n<p>BASH: \u201cPresident Biden always said he wants you to be the last person in the room for major decisions, just as he was for President Obama.\u201d<br \/>\nHARRIS: \u201cYes.\u201d<br \/>\nBASH: \u201cHe just made a significant decision about Afghanistan.\u201d<br \/>\nHARRIS: \u201cYes.\u201d<br \/>\nBASH: \u201cWere you the last person in that room?\u201d<br \/>\nHARRIS: \u201cYes.\u201d<br \/>\nBASH: \u201cAnd are you comfortable with that?\u201d<br \/>\nHARRIS: \u201cI am.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to the aftermath of that decision\u2014chaos erupted at Kabul airport as Afghans desperately sought to flee following the Taliban takeover. This hardly resembled a smooth transition.<\/p>\n<p>Now, if this is how Kamala Harris makes decisions, two scenarios could unfold if she were to become president (heaven forbid). First, she might continue making mistakes leading to more military cargo planes overwhelmed by desperate Ukrainians or Taiwanese individuals seeking refuge. Alternatively, she may defer entirely to &#8220;experts,&#8221; lacking confidence in her judgment after previously mismanaging a critical situation.<\/p>\n<p>Fox News&#8217; Jesse Watters believes it&#8217;s likely she&#8217;ll choose the latter path. Liberals have latched onto his comments\u2014not because they disagree but because they find them potentially offensive when taken out of context. In a recent episode of &#8220;The Five,&#8221; while discussing Trump&#8217;s critique of Harris\u2019 role in Afghanistan&#8217;s withdrawal, Watters stated:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is where presidents can make their most significant impact; there\u2019s considerable leeway as commander-in-chief&#8230; We don\u2019t know who she really is or what she stands for; she&#8217;ll likely freeze up while generals take charge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Panelist Jeanine Pirro pointed out an unintended double meaning in his words and expressed discomfort with it humorously.<\/p>\n<p>Watters clarified he meant it figuratively and insisted his comments weren\u2019t sexualized\u2014though some took offense regardless.<\/p>\n<p>In today\u2019s climate where outrage spreads quickly online\u2014even over seemingly innocuous remarks\u2014it raises questions about double standards within political discourse.
