Us pulling our troops out of Afghanistan was negotiated by Trump before Biden even took over. It was one of Trumps campaign promises and I am sure you were all for it.
Biden is President.

He has altered many things that Trump enacted.

If Biden’s administration believed Trump’s plan was a bad one, which they apparently did, why did he enact it?

It was also months after Trump’s plan, BTW. Biden has from May 1st until August to formulate a plan for withdrawal.

He failed to create one, apparently.

Oh, and the leaving of millions of dollars in military assets and weaponry for the Taliban to use is also on Biden.

It starts at the top, and Trump isn’t President.

How about this thread with 174 upvotes and 2 downvotes from the poliboard when it was announced Trump was gonna withdrawal troops from Afghanistan?

This is your new big lie that Biden did this and you all knew it was bad. We know better.

So, Biden has the power to change everything Trump did, but not this particular thing?

Gotcha.

Because everyone wanted out of Afghan land.

But not a shite show of an emergency evacuation of an embassy, trying to negotiate with terrorists, and a president running to camp David out of shame.

Biden did do this.

He is the president.

He enacted a plan that he even stated was bad, and enacted it months after he was apparently supposed to, meaning this is Biden’s plan.

Leaving Afghanistan is a great thing.

Leaving the way in which the Biden administration decided to was fricking dumb.

If you want to pin this on Trump, you should have supported him leaving during his 4 years as president, against the wishes of both the Republicans and Democrats.

Biden tried to capitalize on the country’s want to leave Afghanistan, and he is botching it.

Another tweet verifying the "impossible":

quote:

The US starts evacuating diplomats from its #embassy in #Kabul, two US officials tell Reuters.

The plan has been for the Embassy staff to make their way to the airport. They are now being evacuated directly from the Embassy, which is not supposed to have ever been able to happen.

Years down the road, we'll look back...losing equipment will be very minor compared to the problems with letting that place revert to how it was.

This right here. He needs to be held accountable and answer this simple question: Mr. President if you knew it was a bad plan, why did you enact it? If you knew it was a bad plan was it your purposeful intention to get Americans killed?

The problem isn’t us leaving, it is that we were there at all.

Trump literally made a deal with the taliban to get us out of there, he did this almost a year before he left office and people in here bashing it now were all for it.

Again, Trump isn’t the president.

Biden is.

Trump never had time to implement his plan. He wasn’t even president on the date when the pullout was supposed to occur (May 1st).

On top of that, the pullout didn’t occur on May 1st, meaning Biden and his administration disregarded Trump’s plan and implemented their own.

If Biden believed it was flawed, he should never have gone along with it.
