President Biden on Wednesday declined an opportunity to say he would have done anything in Afghanistan differently, insisting he doesn't know how the U.S. could withdraw from Afghanistan without "chaos ensuing." The president made the comments in an interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos, the first time he's taken questions from a journalist since the Taliban took over Afghanistan.
"So you don't think this could have been handled -- this exit could have been handled better in any way, no mistakes?" Stephanopoulos asked Biden in a clip of the interview posted Wednesday.
