    Trump wasn't President when Biden ran from Afghanistan. Biden had been in office for seven months and twenty days (longer than it took to plan, prepare and execute the massive invasion of Guadalcanal in WWII) when he ran from Afghanistan like a scalded dog, abandoning US citizens, allies and gifting billions of dollars of military equipment to the terrorist Taliban. Trump hadn't been Commander-in-Chief for a long time before Biden ran away.

    Trump didn't leave. Trump was gone and no longer Commander-in-Chief for over seven months when Biden ran away,

    Splitting nitpicks. No ceasefire or no set plan for a ceasefire. Either way...

    That's hardly a nitpick.

    Its the difference between having an actual cease fire in place and agreeing to discuss a cease fire.

    If you think it's such a nitpick tell me, would you rather live in area where there is a ceasefire in place or an area where they have agreed to discuss a ceasefire.

    It shows what an idiot Trump was

    We agree there. Trump didn’t get us out and never would have. Republicans don’t end wars, they start them.

    Discussing a ceasefire doesn't stop anyone from getting shot.

    Actually establishing a ceasefire does. Bullets don't care about discussions. They only care about trigger pulls.

    He wasn't in charge. He couldn't remove anything. How much equipment did YOU remove? You were a private citizen just like him when Biden skedaddled.

    You have no idea "what might have been". Do you use tea leaves, a crystal ball or Tarot Cards to predict the future?

    Biden sure as hell got us involved in Gaza and Ukraine. FACT. No crystal ball required.

    Democrats usually get us in wars. WWI (Wilson), WWII (Roosevelt), Korea (Truman), VietNam (Johnson)

    So do you have an answer to question number 1, on what date was the deal signed?

    He wasn’t in charge until Jan 20th or so? If the plan was to leave why didn’t he start getting stuff out?

    Bien took over 20, Jan 2021. Trump left then an became a private citizen. Bien's cowardly skedaddle, so chaotic that he left behind billions of dollars of military equipment, happened SEVEN MONTHS AND TWENTY DAYS aftr Trump left and Biden took over... longer than it took to plan, prepare for, and execute the massive invasion of Guadalcanal in WWII. Biden did nothing in all that time. So he just ran away like a scalded dog.

    Heck, we're INVOLVED with Sri Lanka. But we didn't start sending endless billions of dollars to Ukraine until Putin invaded... under Biden's watch.

    That's it! You found the solution.
    Send them to Ukraine. They can deputize them and let them fight for their new country!

    but he sure wanted to take credit for it, so Biden must have done a good job in Trump's eyes

    "Trump complained on a radio show that the media spent 'all night' Sunday covering the devastation wrought by Hurricane Ida instead of his 'great agreement' with the Taliban" Aug 30, 2021

    Running away like a cowardly dog is what Biden did. That way of "ending a war" never ends well for the coward or his country.

    I never blamed America at all. Putin always wanted to invade Ukraine. Biden's cowardice simply set the stage and emboldened him.

    And that's the point. Trump did not agree to pull out on the condition of a cease fire. The agreement called for a cease fire to be discussed. THAT'S what Trump left Biden with.

    The "deal" was "quid pro quo"... "you do THIS and we will do THAT". When the Taliban failed to take a step to establish a ceasefire, the deal was over... done... left the building. NO QUID... NO PRO QUO.
