He never said it was perfect. And you would have to be an idiot to ignore the lead-up that led to the Afghan withdrawal. Under Trump’s administration, troop levels were drawn down to 2500 before Biden ever became POTUS. Essential equipment was removed. Equipment that couldn’t be removed was destroyed. The balance of the equipment that was there was used directly by afghan forces in their operation. The US had capability to protect only specific areas when Biden took over. This ignorant cartoon ignores that Taliban prisoners were released by the thousands and were already taking over remote areas because there were no US troops to support the Afghans.
