You’ve been spewing all this conjecture and all you had to do is Google it. Took less than a minute.

Trump made a deal with the Taliban legitimizing them.  The failure of the Afghani army and govt.  is on him. The Biden Administration should have realized the weakness in the Afghan govt. US intelligence was poor.

Good for you, Cardfan1 but you boasting about your Googling skills does nothing to change the fact that the debacle in Afghanistan belongs to nobody but Joe Biden and his staff. Trump has been out of office for more than 7 months, yet Biden had no clue about what was going on under his watch in Afghanistan.

I could post quotes of all of the statements made by Biden and Harris over the past 7 months, indicating that everything was going well in Afghanistan, but that would change nothing. The buck for the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan stops with Biden and there are no "buts" necessary for that statement. And unlike during the campaign, there is really no place for Biden to hide from his responsibility for the current mess. He wanted the job and responsibility, and he has it. It is time for him to man up and stop blaming everybody else for his shortcomings.

Nice sidestep.  Most of your posts in this thread have been based on your lack of knowledge of the subject…you just proved that. 

He did want the job and like everything else he should have known this was another Trump mess.   Biden needs to just rip up everything that happened those 4 years and start all over.  

You are right about one thing, Hooter. Biden is going to have hold these officials accountable who have been feeding him these sunny reports.

You bet on a losing horse. Biden is not being fed sunny reports. He just chooses not to listen or is incapable of understanding the world in which he lives. As for ripping up everything, that is exactly what he has been trying to do since he took office. That is why there are so many messes that his successor will need to clean up.

The southern border fiasco should have served as a wake-up call for Democrats but people like you do not seem interested in competence when you can blame failures on Trump. A growing number of Democrats are realizing that Biden is a fraud who made promises on which he cannot deliver.

Better luck next time with your vote. I suppose you are not old enough to have voted for Jimmy Carter, whose record should have served Democrats as a handbook of what not to do as president. Biden has been in federal elected office almost continuously since he was 29 years old and he was never qualified to serve as president.
