to be honest this whole thing is a disaster, losing so badly to the taliban after trillions of dollars, tens of thousands of american lives, hundreds of thousands of afghan lives, and you go back to point 0. We all wanted a pull out, but not like THIS. It would have been far preferable to not have entered that back water country in the first place.
The thing is, you can't even blame this all on biden, the scope is far too big for one president to take responsibility for. Trump did some stupid things, and believe me, I generally liked a lot of what trump did, but I do accept he made a bunch of mistakes, hes human after all. Then you can go back to Obama, who in fact is a master of foreign policy. He conducted the wars amazingly, very competent and makes both trump and biden look like chump amateurs. At the end of the day though, even though he didn't pull out of afghanistan because he knew the disaster it would be, he knowingly passed the buck so thats on him. Then you can go back to bush and his nonsense war on terrorism, that involved who knows how many different countries. He had no idea wtf he was doing.
Its dishonest to blame it all on biden, but obviously as the sitting president, he should have planned the exit out far better than he did.
