Biden is known for eating ice cream and posing for photo ops with ice cream cones in both hands.
Afghan media reports the fighters were mocking a “weak” Biden after the Taliban took control of Afghanistan.
Can't wait for the White House "journalists" to ask Joe what flavor ice cream goes best with a Taliban takeover.

Despite the mocking tweets, Twitter says the Taliban can stay on the platform as long as they don’t incite violence.
In a statement to Mediaite.com, Twitter said its “top priority is keeping people safe, and we remain vigilant.”
One Taliban account has more than 310,000 followers.
Conservative lawmakers noted that the Taliban has Twitter accounts but Donald Trump is still banned.
“Why on God’s green Earth does the Taliban spokesman have an active Twitter account but not the former President of the United States?,” Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) tweeted Sunday.
