I didnt say that but it was obvious the Taliban was gonna take back over

Literally no one in the world, probably, is disputing that.

It should've been common knowledge they would take over when we left.

It was. It was also common knowledge that they were doing so at a much more rapid pace than first thought.

We got rid of Al Queda, that was the goal I thought.

We never even really got rid of Al Qaeda. We killed their leader, we drove them into hiding. But, they are still around, and they are still supported.

We aren't fighting them in Afghanistan anymore, no reason for us to be there.

You cant blame Biden for whats happening now and not blame Trump, he is bigly responsible as well. He literally negotiated this withdrawal with the Taliban and was mad because we dint withdrawal all our troops by May like he wanted.

True.

None of that changes the utter disaster that we have witnessed. Nor does it chang the fact that Biden ignored multiple advisors and intelligence reports and went ahead with a self-professed "bad plan". None of that changes his refusal to at least acknowledge the disaster this turned into.

Enough of the whataboutisms and spin.

I'm not the fight you're looking for.

Who was in office in May?

What does Trump "being mad" about us not leaving in May have to do with anything?

Braindead fake president biden destroyed the deadline to suit his own vanity of it being “his” op and also the conditions for the agreement, and still FAILED to put in motion the evac protocols EVEN WHEN the Taliban was 80 miles outside Kabal 2 months earlier. Dumbass!

I'm sure trump would've withdrawn the exact same way.

If the Taliban kills any of our people then its a disaster and we will retaliate and they know that, but they haven't yet and we are expected to be out of there within the next 10 days and this will be forgotten about by most people by next year.

We knew the Taliban was gonna take over, the mistake was thinking they couldn't do it this fast.

Would Trump have pulled out the military before our citizens and our equipment? If you don’t have complete TDS, then you have to realize that Trump understands inventory and he’d think of that before leaving. Biden has never hired really anyone. I honestly don’t think he’s really conducted an actual job interview since he’s been in the public sector forever.

No, this isn’t on Trump. It’s on Biden, because 90% of the country as dumb we may be would have thought to at least get the civilians out first. Biden didn’t think about that very basic fact at all and now thousands of Americans are likely going to be killed and sold into sex slavery. We will have raids for years to come and find some of these women and kids and they be a centerpiece on 60 Minutes.

You know what I can directly put 100% of the blame on Joe Biden for?

The fact that right now, the only people who are getting out of Afghanistan are the people who the Taliban allow out. An United States citizen has to get past the Taliban in order to make it onto a military plane to get out. The USA can say “come to the airport and we’ll fly you out and we’ll sort out your visa” but it’s the Taliban who control who gets to the airport.

14 days ago the USA had the capability to ensure safe passage through the city for our own citizens and the people who we promised safe harbor.

The USA does not have (and is not sending) a large enough/strong enough force to push through the city and “evacuate” our citizens, allies, and MI assets that need to get out.

When Joe Biden took the oath of commander-in-chief the USA was not at the mercy of the Taliban to allow people to get to the airport. This has all changed under commander-in-chief Joe Biden.

Can someone catch me up here... I don't have the TV on a lot but I heard this weekend that there were 40,000-80,000 americans left behind. Now, I heard there is 10,000 did we scoop most of them up ? or is the media trying to fudge the numbers ??

Apparently he told the leader of the Taliban that he knew his home village, which apparently silenced him, and Trump said if they betrayed the agreement that he’d first start by bombing and killing everyone in his home village. That’s simultaneously sick and hardcore. He wasn’t fricking around there.



It’s astounding how straightforward foreign diplomacy is when policy and intelligence are in conjunction.

The inverse is also true. See Joe Biden.

My God. Tell the board, does it actually hurt to be this stupid?

Explain in detail how Trump is responsible when Biden shredded his withdrawal plan to do his own thing.

His own thing, we are now learning, that was contrary to what intelligence was telling him and what the military was suggesting.

Tell me you have no fricking clue as to what Trump's plan was without actually telling me you have no fricking clue as to what Trump's plan was.



I'll give you a hint....that wasn't the plan.
