Trump did not agree with Biden pulling all the US troops while Americans were still there (and friendly Afghans). Pulling all th troops is one thing ; pulling them with Americans still there, is another.LOL
You idiot, Trump himself said he left Biden no choice but to pull the remaining troops...
"I started the process. All the troops are coming back home. They couldn't stop the process. 21 years is enough. Don't we think? 21 years. [The Biden admin] couldn't stop the process. They wanted to, but it was very tough to stop." ~ Donald Trump, 6.26.2021

Not questioning Trumps statement - the issue to me was, could Biden have reversed the process?Yes, I'm sure.

IMO yes he could have - that the USA and it's Partners had gotten disillusioned (sick and tired) with their engagement in Afghanistan is understood.
Well we have the strongest military in the world. So there is no doubt our military could have rolled back all the Taliban gains since Feb 29th 2020. But it really was more than that as you said and as the Generals testified too.the issue to me was, could Biden have reversed the process?

I agree as to what you stated.Well we have the strongest military in the world. So there is no doubt our military could have rolled back all the Taliban gains since Feb 29th 2020. But it really was more than that as you said and as the Generals testified too.
"At the peak in 2011, we had 97,000 US troops alongside 41,000 NATO troops in Afghanistan. 10 years later when Ambassador Khalilzad signed the Doha agreement with Mullah Baradar on 29, February, 2020, United States at 12,600 US troops with 8,000 NATO and 10,500 contractors. This has been a 10 year multi administration draw down, not a 19 month or 19 day NEO. Under the Doha agreement, the US would begin to withdraw its forces contingent upon Taliban meeting certain conditions, which would lead to a political agreement between the Taliban and the government of Afghanistan."
He could get it done because the current usurper isn't doing a damn think to broker a peaceful deal. Hell, he's escalated everything.
