Wait a minute…..

In your first post you said the mistake was not the withdrawal process but the withdraw itself.

Now you are saying Afghanistan was lost the moment it was begun.

If that is the case, why the hell should we stay there?


Typical idiot leftist. Talk from both sides of your mouth and don’t even have the intelligence to realize you contradict yourself.

Wrong!

When you blame Trump for Biden’s actions is beyond laughable! You should know why!

Dem playbook: any good isn’t from previous admin but all about them…anything bad, it’s on the previous. Got use to that from Obama lol.

This is on Biden! No one else

Blame Biden for ignoring intelligence and his incompetence

Biden: said this will NOT be another Saigon..... almost laughed at the notion of this happening.

Biden miscalculated..,see his previous statement about Saigon…which makes him Incompetent. Or he didn’t care, which makes him a terrible President. Either way, it’s a bad look for the man you voted for. Own it

Biden reversed ALL of Trump policies (keystone, Iran deal , Paris climate, etc.) but this is the one policy they were bound too. Trump said this would be dictated on intelligence on the ground. Taliban violated it…as you stated, over 1000 times…Biden said it wouldn’t be Conditioned based! This is on Joe

I blame every US president rather than one individual for this withdrawal. Trump also had control for 4 years and was the one who brokered the deal to withdraw in the first place (and everyone conveniently ignores this). If we want to examine 20 years of foreign policy failure, you can't really ignore the administration that brokered a deal with the Taliban ;)

I think Biden's biggest mistake isn't the withdrawal but the fact that we're withdrawing in the first place. He gave in to political cowardice when anyone on the ground would tell you that the Afghan army has no loyalty to the cause or America.


Trumps mistake was believing that if he lost re-election the next man up would have a set of balls

Please....

refrain from posting to avoid further embarrassment

Could you imagine his reaction had Trump said: this won’t be another Saigon, almost laugh at that possibility. Then go into hiding at Camp David??

When China invades Taiwan…blame Trump

Explain what, exactly? I'm glad we are getting out of there finally. It was going to be chaotic no matter when this occurred, and the Taliban were always going to go against their promises. If we kept waiting for them to adhere to some terms of agreement before leaving, we would never leave.

It was time to finally rip the bandaid off and get our people out of there.

Except we left thousands of Americans there because Biden thought the afghans would protect them from the taliban. Biden is a disgrace.

It was fully evacuated TO THE CIVILIAN AIRPORT you fricking idiot.

There are still Americans stuck on the ground. Evacuation planes have halted because Afghans keep swarming the tarmac. This has been completely fricking fricked and your administrations silence says everything.

We have humiliated ourselves on the global stage. Do you care about that anymore or only when Republicans are president?

How exactly is that a contradiction you dingus?

We should never have gone in but the decision was made and we should have stuck to it. Once we were there, the calculus had already been made and if we withdrew, we would lose.

The only non-negative outcome from entering would be if we had stayed there indefinitely.

Typical idiot Conservative. Doesn't have the intelligence to realize that being there changes the calculus.

It's not a contradiction to believe that entering was a mistake but also believe that withdrawing is also a mistake.

The only non-negative outcome is if we stayed there, not withdrew.

idiot

once again: nothing prevented an organized withdrawal other than poor planning from the biden admin.

That's a fact.

You have some explaining to do. Let's hear it.

For fulfilling the treaty trump and Pompeo made with the Taliban? If I recall correctly, trump promised to remove all our troops from Afghanistan by May 1.

Now, I don't necessarily agree with Biden complying with trump's stupidity. But it's clear that no matter what year this might have been, 2021, 2030, 2050, whatever, Afghanistan would have quickly reverted back to Taliban control. Why? BECAUSE THE MAJORITY OF AFGHAN MEN APPROVE OF THE TALIBAN'S RELIGIOUS DOGMA. In the end, this collapse is on Afghans, themselves, and in the end only they will change their own society.

Remember, also, that we invaded Afghanistan to rid that country of Al Qaeda, not to rebuild it. It's hilarious to me that trumpians in this country are suddenly in love with democracy for Afghans while they seek to diminish it at home. Or that any amount of money would have been justified.

I don't give a damn about the name calling as long as you made some points alongside it.

You can name call me as much as you want but at least provide some points for discussion.

Absolute clown. Insult me as much as you want but provide some points alongside. You've done none of that.
