Outspoken conservative political commentator Candace Owens has slammed Joe Biden‘s handling of the crisis in Afghanistan, accusing the president of hiding “like a little b****”.

Biden’s decision to draw down U.S. military operations in Afghanistan has come under fire since the Taliban entered the nation’s capital of Kabul on Sunday.

The decision to withdraw from Afghanistan was first made under the administration of former President Donald Trump. However, the withdrawal was initiated under Biden.

“Donald Trump is acting like the President Of The United States right now while Joe Biden hides like a little b*** and waits for his Beijing handlers to tell him what to do,” Owens tweeted Sunday night.

The 32-year-old has been a vocal critic of the Biden administration and is an ardent Donald Trump supporter.

Biden doubled down on his decision to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan, instead blaming the Trump administration for signing a deal with the Taliban that left them “in the strongest position militarily since 2001,” while pulling 2,500 troops before he left office.

“One more year, or five more years, of U.S. military presence would not have made a difference if the Afghan military cannot or will not hold its own country,” Biden said in a White House statement issued on Saturday. “An endless American presence in the middle of another country’s civil conflict was not acceptable to me.”

“When I became President, I faced a choice—follow through on the deal, with a brief extension to get our forces and our allies’ forces out safely, or ramp up our presence and send more American troops to fight once again in another country’s civil conflict.”

Trump promptly responded, criticizing Biden for not following his plan that the former president said “protected our people and our property” and “ensured the Taliban would never dream of taking our Embassy or providing a base for new attacks against American,” without specifying any details of this plan.

“What a disgrace it will be when the Taliban raises their flag over America’s Embassy in Kabul,” he said. “This is complete failure through weakness, incompetence, and total strategic incoherence.”

In April, Trump praised Biden’s decision to withdraw U.S. forces from Afghanistan as “a wonderful positive thing to do,” adding that the U.S. should “get out earlier.” Before he left office, Trump pulled 2,500 troops and imposed a May 1 deadline for withdrawing forces. Biden announced that the withdrawal would commence on May 1, with an aim to complete the process by September 11, 2021.

Over the past week, the Taliban made swift gains across the country, securing the capital city Kabul on Sunday and forcing U.S. Embassy staff to evacuate in a takeover that has left U.S. officials stunned.
