Is there anyone left here with an ounce of honesty?
Biden seems to have acted rashly based on anxiety. This might have been better planned.
They have known for over a year that we would be leaving this year whether it was Orange or Biden in the WH. It doesn’t take long to remove that number of troops. Should we have asked them pretty please not to have their trained, well equipped, hundreds of thousands strong army not just to simply collapse the moment we are gone? Please, just a little honesty from those clamoring for this pullout.
As it is... we have been humiliated, have deserted folks we vowed to protect (women!) and have emboldened terrorists everywhere in the world.
It's the Dems dream... from Blackhawk Down, thru Benghazi, thru Isis and now Afghanistan.
Hell.. they would probably like to tear down the Alamo and put up a statue of Santa Ana.
Joe Biden is a feckless Jimmy Carter on steroids.
Stop being a mindless partisan. You and others here have been calling for a complete withdrawal for a while.
Not my fault that you never think through the consequences of your wishes.
":he likelihood there’s going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely" - Joe Biden - July 8th.

You really expect them to say yeah we know we are leaving and they will fall, but we’re going anyway?

Or maybe use an upside down bible after clearing out American citizens exercising their 1st amendment rights.
Not sure what it accomplishes...but stunning to see in person.
you boys, it's necessary to rewrite their time in office instead of owning up to it. Not sure what that achieves but it does put
you in a spot to keep defending.
I never defended Bush on “mission accomplished” and I was not a defender of Trump generally.
If you’re gonna lie do a better job…unless you’re having memory lapses…
on leaving Afghanistan. He got it wrong as did the other two. It appears most get these kinda things wrong or don’t do them well.
Defending the other two calling it a whataboutism is to defend them.
Just sayin’.
Relevance here.
I thought mission accomplished was a dumb ass thing to say and said so at the time. It doesn’t make Biden any less of a dumb ass. Which he clearly is.
They have never shown any interest in exporting jihad.
Have they gotten anything right in the past several decades? They must have, but this one is another egregious example of ineptitude.

...or do you figure this is all on Biden'sHandlers?

I agree with the pull out, but not with the telegraphing, the abandonment of the air base, and gross incompetence of the execution that allowed such bad optics and loss of life.
