Biden needs to own this decision. Yes, Trump drew down troops. Yes, Trump invited the Taliban to Camp David on 9/11.

But, Biden made this call. He needs to acknowledge the devastation & the mistakes & tell the American people he still thinks it was the right thing to do.

Trump invited the Taliban to Camp David and freed 5000 Taliban prisoners to appease them for a temporary ceasefire. He can sit down. https://t.co/I25HtSvl5I

Trump in April: “Getting out of Afghanistan is a wonderful and positive thing to do. I planned to withdraw on May 1st, and we should keep as close to that schedule as possible.” https://t.co/RzbLQePTMD pic.twitter.com/KEs5x3zAJQ

Holy shit! Bring the Afghans here. Stop the bullshit with third party countries. To hell with Fox News and the racists. Put them on planes and get them here. I am so damn sick of the idiotic navel gazing and bureaucratic stupidity. Get this done.

I predict we will be reading future memoirs by Biden advisers explaining how they pleaded with him not to do this in Afghanistan. Too late. The time to go public was four months ago.

If there is red tape preventing Afghan refugees from coming to America, a good thing to do would be to set that red tape on fire.

Due to wrong assumptions somewhere in his team, Biden authorized a pullout that was pounced on by the Taliban & now endangers Americans and allies, +.

I’m a Dem, I voted for Biden, and I support President Biden, today as much as ever. But this is a fuk up, and he’s Boss.

The greatest sign of our decline as a country is that we took in 100k Vietnamese in ‘75 and no one batted an eye, but we can’t take 2k Afghanis now.

I hope this doesn’t become a thing on the right. Because it’s repugnant. https://t.co/kzMStVy9Sn
