What’s the probability you will admit to that Biden was finishing the real plan that Trump started? I will at least admit that it is a remote possibility. However unlikely if you take Trumps personality and tendancies into account. His actions line up exactly as what i would expect from him. The tendency for Biden to act as he did, fucking up the whole ordeal, is what I expect from him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What’s the probability you will admit to that Biden was finishing the real plan that Trump started? Biden finished the plan in an abysmal, embarrassing, and cowardly fashion, resulting in the useless death of Americans. I doubt that was the way Trump intended.

Remember this started because you lied about Biden ignoring the withdrawal agreement? Remember that the only thing you have in support of a secret Trump plan to ignore the withdrawal agreement is a partisan Trump administration insider saying, after the plan he’d publicly agreed to had collapsed, that they never really meant it? Remember that the military, other Trump insiders and the reality of Trump’s abandonment of Afghan forces prove that what he’s saying is a lie? What reason do you have for your argument except for your unquestioning adulation of the orange man and all his works? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because that was the ‘that’ that you said. I'll agree on this: ln March, Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Mark Milley reportedly told Biden that leaving fewer than 2,500 troops could allow quick Taliban gains and re-establish a haven for extremist groups like al-Qaeda or ISIS to plan attacks against Western targets. and this: Mike Nagata, a retired Army three-star who directed strategic operational planning at the National Counterterrorism Center, said that he wasn't surprised to hear the 800-troop number but that it is inadequate. And This: Defense One was able to confirm Miller’s account of the 800-personnel study independently with another former NSC staff member. But nowhere in that article did anyone disagree with it as you say they did. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would he want to burnish his reputation instead of meekly accepting his association with absolute failure? Why would he want to bolster his position in the far right think tank network by being willing to spin any tale that paints MAGA as savants and the Democrats as idiots? No you’re right, it’s a total fucking mystery. 9 minutes ago, turtlespeed said: You cannot concieve of any scenario where this is a possibility. What is the possibility that Trump’s real plan was the withdrawal agreement he negotiated and signed? What is the possibility that Biden continued with Trump’s real plan - total withdrawal, just like he said it was? How possible do you think that was?

Less than the reccomended amount. Yet biden still went with that. Wargames be damned. It was advised against, and Biden knew it, and he still allowed it.
