'We are literally screwed': The hits keep coming as Joe Biden repeats WH's lie that 'we don't have military in Syria' [video]

Kudos to President Joe Biden, who’s managed to pack a lifetime’s worth of gaslighting into his interview with George Stephanopoulos. “We have control of the airport right now.” “No one’s being killed right now.”

“We don’t have military in Syria”:

👀 Biden incorrectly says the U.S. has no troops in Syria. We have 900 in Syria, more than a third of what we had in #Afghanistan.

The Commander-in-Chief should know this. pic.twitter.com/lDwhjWPsfU

Recall, the White House talking points on #Afghanistan included this incorrect talking point, and Biden's just repeating it. https://t.co/HMabKzz7GP

The commander-in-chief should absolutely know that there are troops in Syria. Has he forgotten? Or is he just lying through his teeth?

Biden and White House briefers either don't know or are lying about US troops in Syria. https://t.co/pTb1PdSoj1

Neither scenario is a good one.

This will come as news to the US coalition troops in northeast Syria right now https://t.co/KRCDVWTSHW

Jun 8, @JoeBiden letter to Congress, War Powers report: "A small presence of United States Armed Forces remains in strategically significant locations in Syria…"

Maybe Jill Biden wrote the letter and Joe just signed it.

Nobody tell Biden we have a small troop presence in Syria, lest he withdraw them with no planning, causing another crisis. https://t.co/mK9VSgOSwB

An existential crisis, perhaps?

Incredibly, it continues to get worse https://t.co/IjTznBVWjY

Safe to assume he’s not running things

He’s not in charge. I’d bet my house, that Jill makes more day to day governing decisions than he does.

Really glad the press ran cover for this guy and fawned over his ice cream choices

It's just beyond incompetence at this point

Couple days ago Dems dragged Cornyn for saying that we had troops in Taiwan.

OUR COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF DOES NOT KNOW WE HAVE TROOPS IN SYRIA.

We are literally screwed. https://t.co/size1OIEW2
