Gentlemen- completely agree we should have left 19 years ago! Disappointed in your comments on the withdrawal- “would have been ugly no matter who was in charge”. Leaving has been a $hitshow, we had control - should have had afghanis and US personnel leave then Pull the troops out. Now we have US citizens in danger and worse case if turns ugly the war hawks will have the justification to go back in with US military force. This is a failure of the politicians in charge and the woke military brass - unless that’s was the plan all along, call it like it is!
