There’s Only One President I Blame For Afghanistan, And It Isn’t Donald Trump

[skews13]

Today, there will be stories comparing the fall of Afghanistan to the U.S. exit from Vietnam, and others by armchair quarterbacks of what should be done and what we should avoid. While the Twitter universe will focus on the actions of Donald J. Trump—like his decision to release 5,000 Taliban members just last year—the truth is it wasn’t the Trump administration that got us into this mess or made the problem a disaster.

What happened? How did we get here? Afghanistan wasn’t really on the target list for the U.S. post the attack on the twin towers, for those who forget. No, we were after specific terrorists, and then the field kept expanding. Without any provable link between Saddam Hussein and Al Qaeda, U.S. troops swept into the country and began a military adventure without end.

So I assume that you're saying Biden's vote for the war didn't mean anything????

Are you implying that the Fucktard didn't have a clue as to what he was doing then (just like he doesn't now)????
