Donald Trump would’ve done whatever the hell it took to get these Americans out of that place in a heartbeat. That’s if it ever came to this.

He would be up around the clock, and we would’ve heard from him multiple of times.

Meanwhile, the Biden admin has disappeared and all we’ve heard are crickets.

The Taliban violated the Doha Agreement several times with no retribution.

Of course I think this would have happened under any administration.

The military and IC wouldve fricked trump over that isn't even debatable. They just did it to Biden. Telling him it would take 90 days for taliban to take over.

Trump had zero allies in the upper brass of military they just flat out would've done everything to make it a complete shite show and have everyone in the media blame squarely trump.

The silence is really astonishing. They must have known this was coming.

How long did ISIS function under Obama?
How long did they function when Trump was President?

When Qasim Soleimani fricked with our embassy and our people, Trump had him turned into salsa and sent back to Tehran in a box flying economy, then he threw up the American flag on twitter

He had 4 years to get Americans out of that shithole and did basically nothing.

Trump would have properly planned our pull out. The Biden squad seems to have wanted this mess to happen.

I don’t know. But I do know it happens under Biden and he and 81 million who voted for him (allegedly) own this mess.

I don't think the Taliban would've messed with a "loose Cannon" as Trump was portrayed, but they're clearly willing to mess with a potato.

The Taliban would have taken over regardless.

The timeline, that is worth a debate.

Trump would have at least had some kind of plan in place for an orderly withdrawal, the Biden administration has none at all. Hell, they won't even address it. It's disgraceful and the people who voted for him should be ashamed

Yes, but not as quickly. It'd have happened in small chunks. Little by little. I simply don't trust the Taliban to live up to whatever "deal" they may have made with Trump.

I believe Trump would have struck back at them hard for their small advances.

Hypothetically, had this exact scenario played out under Trump, we'd be bombing the crap out of that country right now.

In reality no. Trump understood what was going on over there and actually listened to people with first-hand knowledge.

To be fair, the Taliban would have eventually been in power Trump or no Trump but our exit and getting those we wanted out would not have gone down like this.

Yes, the same would've happened.
