Oh come on. I'm NOT blaming A PARTY. I'm not asking you to blame one either. I'm asking you simple questions but it is clear you are so extremely partisan that you can't answer because you'd have to consider the possibility that there's shared blame and your hero would have put us in the exact same spot.
One more time for my "Independent" friend in Maine:
- Did you back Trump and Pompeo's deal with the Taliban to pull out of Afghanistan in May?
- Do you think this would have happened if Trump won in 2020?
- Do you think 1 more year would have made a difference? 5? 10? 20? 50?
- Would you sign up to spend another trillion US $ to keep the Taliban out of control for another 20 years?
The issue is after 9-11 this was the route the administration/country took...Tensions were high and accountability was demanded by many...Usually we can swoop is and bitch slap people, that didn't happen here...
IMO the exit strategy sucked, and that started with Trump and finished with Biden....What's so hard for you to see here? Trillions of dollars have been spent, have the Afgans benefited, I would think yes...
Where are the Afgan women and children today----scared, angry and this country is to blame----A shit storm is coming and if you don't believe it you're a fool...
This Thread/Forum is why I don't venture down here much...You can't change my opinion and I can't change yours....Be well and enjoy your quest!
