The Biden admin deserves criticism for how it’s handled the Afghanistan withdrawal (I’ve made some myself).
But the notion that Trump would’ve handled it better is utter BS, at best it’s fan fiction from people who want to tell themselves they didn’t support an incompetent leader

In the aftermath of Mandel tweeting this,

- The worker got sent home
- The brewery deleted its Twitter account
- The business received loads of bad attention/press & has had to do damage control
- Mandel has since trashed the business multiple times

Never seen anything like it https://t.co/PhUFoyMfPC

This is insulting to every single person out here doing the work to get allies and Americans to safety.

Our military and my teammates are working 24/7, sending plane after plane full of Americans and Afghans to partner nations and the US.

Knock off the politics and give a hand. https://t.co/8DydLWH1nA

The Syrian army is backed by Russia and Iran, and was losing—or at least not winning—before Russia intervened in 2015 and used the "bomb like mad, who cares about civilians" strategy it used in Chechnya (with Aleppo in place of Grozny).
Bad analogy for Afghan army w/o US backing. https://t.co/vE8UXOTRib

So far, ending pandemic unemployment aid has not yielded extra jobs by The Economist

But I’ve been repeatedly assured by Republicans that the extra bennies were the reason businesses were having trouble finding work!

Respectfully, that same paragraph says ""An intelligence assessment estimated that the Afghan forces could hold off the Taliban for one to two years".

The worst case scenario you logically plan for given that intelligence is not "Kabul falls in 10 days" 1/4 https://t.co/z3TeAnIVrB

Some on the far right have conveniently forgotten the mistakes that led to where we are today in Afghanistan… not to mention the American tradition of welcoming refugees from war-torn countries.. https://t.co/6wTu3TFs0x

The prior admin left diplomatic bombs around the world. Chaos was their governing philosophy.
