Joy Reid excuses U.S. faltering in Afghanistan: 'We can't even make our own democracy fully work'
Fox News
MSNBC host Joy Reid used the chaotic troop withdrawal from Afghanistan on Monday to take a shot at the United States on the domestic front, saying "we can't even make our own democracy fully work.”
"War is messy. There's no pretty way to lose a war," Reid said as she asked Rep. Jake Auchincloss, D-Mass., about how veterans of Afghanistan were feeling knowing they fought a mission "they couldn't have accomplished." Auchincloss said the mission was doomed because of the lack of political partnership in Kabul and because it was not an organic nation. He did, however, express hope in the social changes made during America's 20 years in the country, specifically citing an increase in literacy rates and the participation of more women and girls in school.More Related News
