Why is nobody talking about the enormous failure of the Afghan withdrawal?

And pointing out that democrats are more upset over how Biden is handling a war between two countries not named America than they were over his terrible withdrawal from Afghanistan, which led to 13 American troops being killed, billions of dollars of American weaponry abandoned/left to the Taliban, and American assets being left to fend for themselves against the Taliban?

If I was Trump or working on his campaign, I’d remind people of this every single day.

If the current White House was run by republicans the media would be destroying them right now with everything you mentioned.

To be fair, Biden’s portfolio of enormous failures is very extensive. It’s easy for one to get lost in that group.

But that was a big one, no doubt.

In addition to the 13 American soldiers who died on Aug 26 who were dishonored by their incompetent leaders, remember the poor Afghan family of 10 (including 7 children) that were blown apart by a US missile on Aug 29 in a stupid fricking attempt of retribution. And when questioned, the Pentagon doubled down on their war crime, calling it “a righteous strike.”

Oh, and this…

Those involved are not going talk about that while trying to start another.

Because the media has been burying Afghanistan for the last several years.

When is the last time we heard anything about all those Americans who were over there who got stranded?

Trump actually talks about it pretty regularly, including in his speech Tuesday night.

The lefts defense of “at least he got us out of a war” is now destroyed as Biden drags us into other wars. The right should beat this to death.

Because it doesn’t lead to economic collapse. Pissing away trillions on bomb dropping will, 50 million illegals will, overspending by another trillion every 100 days will

Trump planned the exit, including the timeline, and then bragged that it was too late for Biden to reverse. But I understand that means nothing when you’re in a cult and disconnected from reality.

It's hard to pick one thing out of that disaster that is the most moronic, but if forced to choose, I'd go with Biden's desire to execute the withdrawal on 9/11, as though that was going to be some kind of poetic symbolism. Setting aside the fact that it would have been nothing of the sort, telling enemies in advance of your intentions is just idiotic, but also consistent with the fantasyland mindset of these midwits.

Trump mentioned it in his Super Tuesday victory speech.

He hasn’t forgot about it

Because it’s too early to hit this issue. It will come, I wouldn’t be surprised is the commercials are already in the can.

Factually, that’s only partially correct. There were units operating out of Pakistan into Afghanistan that were running recovery ops for more than a month after the final withdrawal.
