Say if you don't have the troops, logistics etc to secure the evacuation that's not just cause you did a bad job nation building, it's also cause you did a bad job planning said evacuation. It's not like I'm saying Biden is solely responsible for the fact the Taliban is in power. You could even say even with great planning and execution you would expect there to be some level of chaos and bumps in the road etc. It's really just a matter of degree.

If the Taliban simply regained control that's not much of a headline. To do it in two weeks while the strongest military in the world is being frantically chased out and those who assisted it being left to die on live TV.. yeah that's not exactly a success story my friend. If you think that is just inevitable whenever you leave afghanistan after 20 years we disagree and frankly i don't think there's anything that can be said to sway you.
