the orange dung heap co-opted the generals...want to bet if that depraved sociopath could have corralled the Taliban at Camp David like he intended to he would have insisted they denounce Joe and Hunter Biden before he and his amoral sycophants caved to the Taliban....

The only question was how long the USA would continue the folly?

I don't care WHO ended the Afghanistan War, it needed to be over. Joe's right, don't hand it over to POTUS #5

TFG negotiated with terrorists
TFG set a bright time line for our leaving
TFG previously established the official USA "f*(k you" policy with the kurds
