We had a lot less time to actually execute the withdrawal than we planned for, and the whole thing had to be started unexpectedly. Considering only about 100 Americans who wanted to leave were left (probably temporarily) behind compared to the thousands of Americans and tens of thousands of Afghans, this WAS a success, overall.
More than 100,000 people have been flown out of Afghanistan since the day before the Taliban took over. That’s…pretty impressive considering the circumstances.
President Biden: “Hey Ghani, I need you to say that everything in Afghanistan is control. That the Afghan military is doing their job”.
President Ghani: “Can I keep a lot of cash for myself? You know the Taliban is winning”.
President Biden: “As long as you give me 10% of your cash then I’m fine”.
President Ghani: “Done”.
Today…
President Biden: “The Afghan military gave up, President Ghani is an idiot. Those afghan people that died were 5 days ago. Hey Jen, did Ghani send the money?…. Oh, that Ghani guy is a nice guy”.

Hey Varvel, (the expert on military operations) Dwight D. Eisenhower once said:
“Farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil and you’re a thousand miles from the corn field.”

13,000 troops in Afghanistan when The Best Negotiator In Human History signed the treaty with the terrorists.
2,500 troops when Biden was inaugurated after the failed insurrection. And a sabotaged visa procedure.
And STILL 123,000 evacuated.
.
Like all Trump Disciples, Varvel is required to lie about EVERY issue.

After Trump paved the way for the Taliban to come back quickly and efficiently I’m surprised it wasn’t worse. But sure blame Biden

Did Biden claim anything like that? No. Was it a Hindenburg-level disaster? No. Is Varvel telling anything like the truth? No.

Considering the dog’s breakfast his predecessor “negotiated”, it’s about as good as could have been expected.
