Joe Biden describes what a disaster his Afghanistan withdrawal is, before he did it.

[Nostra]

So, Biden tells a crowd it would be a disaster to do exactly what he did.

Can't wait for the spin.

US had been there for 20 years. The same think that happen in Vietnam when the US left.

The US supported regime could not hold the countries after they left

Bush and the US got involved because of 9/11 and to punish the Taliban. That is the only reason the US got involved


I don't have a problem. If the Afghan or South Vietnam people cannot hold the country then there is no reason for the US to hold it for them. You can only be be involved for a short period and will eventually have to leave. It is a no win situation that did cost American lives.

At one time the US had 100,000 troops in the country. it dropped to about 8,000 who were mostly doing training before the decision to withdraw completely.

Still in
2/2000 Trump reduced troop levels to its current level.
He also committed a 2/2020 agreement with the taliban for a full military withdrawal from Afghanistan by May 2021


In a February 2020 agreement with the Taliban, the US committed to a full military withdrawal from Afghanistan by May 1, 2021.

This is what Trump agreed to and Biden decision was to carry it out or keep the troops there. So if Trump was still president, the troops would have been withdrawn.

Sorry but that is not what Trump would have done.
This is not comparable to Vietnam.
Trump would never have bailed out forcing the people of Afghanistan to hang onto airplanes taking off. And falling to their deaths.

The reason they are not comparable is the Taliban took over the country immediately. The North Vietnamese spent 2 years after we left to return to invading the South.

Biden himself in speeches declared prior to being president he would spend a year getting out troops out after he yanked out equipment out as well.

Trump had four years to get us out of Afghanistan, but didn't.

Trump's chickenshit ass couldn't back up his bulldog mouth.

You know, Biden really lied when he said he said he would casually pull them out and take a year in all.

The thing is, the only spin you're gonna get is, "But but Trump".

Dems can't start Biden threads because they haven't got anything good to say about him, and any thread that does appear about Biden, "But but Trump", appears within the first handful of posts, and many times, in post #2.

Isn't it strange how Biden wanted his ass out of Afghanistan so he could go into Ukraine. What a hero.

Trump conceded everything to the Taliban in February of 2020. Afghanistan was about ENRON. As soon as negotiations failed, Bush invaded.

No, my spin is orange man is a loudmouth who can't back up his bullshit.

The only thing bigger then Trump's ass is his mouth.

How can you support such a limp wrist Biden who had to obey only Trump? I am totally discounting the crack about Enron as you simply are not well informed. Bush actually did not invade Afghanistan. General Tommy Franks in his brilliant book told the true story of what happened there. That we flooded Afghanistan war lords with good old fashioned us currency and used our airforce and navy air power to maximum effect. But the day to day fighting was only by the Afghans who did not want the Taliban remotely near Afghanistan.
If you do not accept Franks book, check into General Mike DeLong's excellent book. Bush did not even author this plan. He trusted Franks to do the job. And Franks made short work of the Taliban doing this war the right way.

Biden has not tried hard in Ukraine and he has no intention of trying hard. So he did not try at all in Afghanistan. And he lied by saying he would use a year to do the job and not risk lives. And he also said he would definitely pull out all the arms so the Taliban could not use them. He rearmed the Taliban.

Biden IS the disaster.

Not really. We left enough equipment to keep the enemy going a long time.
