Old news. No one cares.

And I don’t mean that for myself or this board. We care because we love the United States.

The general public doesn’t care about what happened six months ago much less three years. The electorate doesn’t give a frick about Afghanistan anymore. Sad but true.

Trump is smart to avoid this. Theres nothing he can say on the subject that will not alienate even parts of his own base.


“Sleepy Joe Biden can’t run the country. Look at the disaster in Afghanistan that occurred on his watch? Do you want the guy who did that in charge for another 4 years?” Trump could say something like that and criticize Biden without mentioning or implying sending American troops back to Afghanistan.

Think you can make the case for Trump being to blame? I mean, are you able?

Because the withdrawal began in 2020. Between June and September of 2020, the US presence dropped from 8,600 to 4,500. There were over 10,000 there in January 2017.

Why isn’t Trump hitting Biden with this on a daily basis?


Because real Americans know the truth and don't need convincing and Biden Supporters don't care and won't be convinced to care.

Because it was Trump’s plan to pull out of Afghanistan.

Biden reversed every policy put forth by Trump. Why would he honor this one?

I don’t know, but he did.

Trump set the deadline but Biden was in charge of meeting it and executing the withdrawal. Biden scrapped Trump’s withdrawal plan and we all have seen the results.



Im surprised this got down votes, because its what happened. I guess some people hate the truth.

Which is exactly why he should be hammering Biden. Trump negotiated a deal that got us out of Afghanistan, but Biden botched the withdrawal.

It's an argument over spilt, spoiled milk though.

The #1 issue affecting America is the Southern Border and the secondary and tertiary affects that will endanger our national security. That needs to be the #1 drum beaten louder and louder until it's no longer an issue.

Because if he started hammering Biden on that now it’s forgotten by the election.

I’m almost certain it has something to do with the indignity of going all out like that in politicizing what is now considered a deep loss that ranks at the top level of solemn events in recent history. Recent and perhaps even beyond. Mentions of the failure of Biden in that matter are reasonable and acceptable, and expected, but any dwelling on the situation beyond the mention and reminder, actually a duty of any Biden opponent, going further to score political points is the polar opposite of a good move. And Trump is fully aware and observant of same. He no doubt made that determination some time ago, well before any of us here - which is pretty much this moment for the most part.

Funny you would ask this today.


Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States

January 30, 2024

From the day Joe Biden surrendered American dignity in Afghanistan, the World has gone to Hell, because everyone knows that the occupant of the White House is Weak, Incompetent, and Corrupt. The surrender of American Strength and Deterrence under Crooked Joe has caused massive death, horrific suffering, and untold turmoil around the globe. Three brave American Army Reservists are gone today—leaving behind their grieving families—because Crooked Joe enriched, emboldened, and empowered America’s enemies to unleash chaos and terror onto the base in Jordan where these Patriots were so savagely murdered. More than 40 other incredible service members were injured. Many will never be the same again, and since Joe Biden has our country hurtling straight into World War 3, the carnage he is creating will only get worse. Never has it been more clear that Joe Biden simply cannot be Commander-in-Chief. For the sake of our safety, security, and indeed, our survival, the American People must fire Crooked Joe Biden and his entire failed administration this November, before they can destroy any more precious American lives, and before it is “just too late.”
