I can agree with that...but vacuum's suck, especially power.

I support leaving.

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.



The people here are not bashing us leaving, nor even the Taliban taking over the country you fricking ignoramus. We are bitching about the fact he has waited months beyond the original plan which left thousands of dependents unprotected with zero protection. And now, because of Potato In Chief, we are having to swoop in with thousands of Marines in an attempt to rescue the people he left sitting in Kabul. People that should have been evacuated 2 weeks ago at a minimum. Months ago would have been more sensible.

I doubt you have the ability to comprehend this however, judging by your history here.

If I’m being honest here, Biden has no input or involvement with these decisions.

He doesn’t have the mental fortitude for it.

The ones behind the throne are making the decisions.

He is just the face.

There's no doubt about that. However, it is the "Biden Administration".

I bet someone is really glad they didn't get a phone call:

You're probably right. Our government is just incompetent in general, horrible with decision making and handling of things. Its crazy to me that many trust these same people (the government) to keep us safe and make the correct decisions on what is good for us

You also said deal was without the involvement of the legitimate Govt of Afghanistan.

So Biden is such a moron and weak President he thought he was bound to follow in August 2021 Trump’s prior announced intention to leave on May 1, 2021 which was based on negotiations which as stated by you didn’t involve the legitimate leaders of the country we would be leaving.

So Biden is Weak, has no plan, loses 3 months of time (probably often), and thinks negotiations with Taliban created a legally binding agreement with Afghanistan to leave over 3 months after Trump’s announced date… I guess he is making the Taliban the leaders after the fact, so he has that going for him when blaming Trump.

OK. Here’s Afghanistan 10 months ago when I called for troops to come home before the Taliban took over

Do you not understand how maps work or is this like when AOC lied about Jan 6 again?

Maybe, or maybe hes bucking them...which would explain how colossal a frick up this was politically.

Either way, it wont change anything and the free world will deal with the consequences in 5-10 years.

It picked up steam almost immediately after American troops began to withdraw, on May 1, and it has only accelerated since.


This taliban takeover has been happening since May when we withdrew all but 2,500 troops as part of Trumps plan. Glad you guys are starting to pay attention to how bad of an idea that was.

Another report of the "impossible":

#UPDATE: #US helicopters are now picking up personnel at the embassy and evacuating them to the airport for flights to the #US, constant flights back and forth have been reported. #Kabul #Afghanistan

You're still not helping your own argument here.
