    I was going more Afghanistan…

    Edit: Oh, you don’t have a snappy retort for that one?

    Guess you agree?

      Afghanistan was fucked the second Trump made a deal with the Taliban and cut the local leadership out of the picture. They all made their own deals with the Taliban right after that and the offensive they conducted was only a matter of time. Trump’s actions made Afghanistan untenable and then he handed it off to Biden with a lit fuse. The Ghost of Patton himself could not have prevented what happened short of deploying multiple Infantry divisions back into the country. Which would have resulted in massive protests in the US and Congress passing a veto proof bill to stop it. So even then, there was no actual path forward anymore. You can fuck off with this GOP propaganda.

        The surprise to everyone back-door, rapid-deadline, no time to secure weapons and bases, sacrificing human (re)sources, with a terrorist group while setting 5000 of their members free to rape and kill women and children, and now threatens to court Marshall the generals who followed the orders, withdrawal…

        Just to make Biden look bad.

        I’m sorry, are we admitting Biden followed through with Trump policy?

        Who’s team are we on, here?

        Wait, isn’t that worse? There was no “Hold up, guys… this seems a little fucked?”
