I brought up half a dozen things, but sure, let's talk about just Afghanistan. by blackwater 07/27/2022, 11:39pm PDT
Neither Trump nor Biden wanted to stay in Afghanistan for another decade. But also, neither wanted a clownshow of a withdrawal where the Taliban returned in triumph to the capital on literally the same day. Neither wanted a rerun of the fall of Saigon in Kabul, with supporters of the US-led government trying desperately to catch the last helicopters and planes out of the city.

But that is what we got, obviously. Now you're trying to paint it as some kind of triumph because it accomplished Trump's goal?

I guess that's more convincing than Biden's own explanation for his actions, which was that he didn't want to change the plan's Trump had made to withdraw exactly on a certain day. Because, you know, it would be totally impossible for a new president to do that.

Look on the bright side. When Biden's utter incompetence crashes the economy even harder than it is now, you can say that it's a triumph because it will accomplish Trump's goal of fewer illegal immigrants coming to the country! Maybe you should write for the New York Slimes -- your head is wedged in the right place.
