If Truman ended WW2 today...

where do I say I support staying in AfPak?
I was happy with the status quo. we had logistics and tech support for the ANAF and they did fine
we were not in combat. we were not getting killed

So why the rush to get out by 9-11 as Biden target date was?

President Biden will withdraw all U.S. troops from Afghanistan by Sept. 11, effectively winding down the war there two decades after it began, officials said.

Sounds to me like you flip flopped and changed your position

There were no troops killed in the 18 months when Trump was negotiating the conditioned withdrawal
and he took the force down from 11k to 2500

Biden gives up Kabul security that the Taliban offered to let the Americans do -and gets 13 American soldiers blown up because he didn't want to add troops to secure Kabul

How many Americans did he leave behind?

Trump lost 60 Americans. There were no troops killed in the first 7 months of Biden's presidency.


13 Troops were killed because an ISIS suicide bomber took the chance.

You've been watching Ted Lasso? The goldfish is the happiest animal because it has the shortest memory. It was but a few days people like you were proclaiming we were at peace and no more soldiers would be killed. That was 13 dead soldiers ago. But you feel good enough to double down and make the proclamation again? (don't get me wrong, I hope no more soldiers are killed. I also know that when you have people that desire to kill you there are sadly no guarantees)

I never claimed no more soldiers would be killed in Afghanistan until today, when the last one left.

I do not care what others claimed.

why were we using Kabul instead of Bagram to evac?
If we had instead then Biden wouldn't have given the Haqqani a chance for a suicide bombing

Nothing, either detrimental or complimentary, said about Trump erases one fact.
Tens of millions of American voters thought he was suited to be POTUS.
There is no redemption for them. Some things are indeed impossible.
They have identified themselves as worthless entities for eternity.

The ones who voted for him twice aren't really any worse than the ones who voted for him once,
because voting for him once defines one forever. There is no recovery of respect from that.
It can't be done. It's useless to think about it. Maybe suicide, but even then, the damage was done. No redemption.

that list was very short and just irrelevancies. Try again.
