Biden has impeccable domestic political cover for this.

Trump negotiated the withdraw/surrender and he carried it out. Both parties share the blame. So it's hard for anyone to attack him over this.

I mean, if an armed assault on the US capitol with the intent of harming or terrorizing the US government officials and employees inside in an effort to prevent a constitutionally required duty isn't terrorism then what is?


their entire goal was to frighten the government into giving them political power. they did this by breaking into the offices and attempting to presumably hold congress hostage. it's absolutely terrorism.

i don't know if blame is the right word. usa shouldn't have been there for 20 years in the first place.

I was thinking, in many ways the American involvement in Vietnam, considered by American military historians to be a failure, actually produced a better outcome than intervention in either Afghanistan, or Iraq, for less time, less money and less lives lost.

Yep, Vietnam is a communist dicatorship. But it's stable. And while dictatorships are not preferred to democratic states.....stability is preferred over clusterfuck

the only good thing america ever did in Vietnam was getting shitloads of american officers killed

I'd say how would you like that argument to be applied to union members who occupied Madison in 2011, but they're democrats, they'd love union members to be declared terrorists if they do anything but roll over and beg.

TBH the republicans will try to attack him but there is no appetite for continuing the war forever. No one is going to vote on loving Afghanistan. The only thing that could be a real disaster is if they now reverse course, panic and send the troops back in.

I'm sure they will try and blame him for how badly it went for the government we spent twenty years grooming which isn't entirely unfair since he was one of the big proponents of going there in the first place and has been a high level official most of the time we have been mismanaging that waste of lives and money.

Not that pretty much most of them aren't all culpable but no one cares about hypocrisy.

"We can't believe this is happening, we never could have guessed!" laments shitlibs who were frequently warned that this is exactly what would happen.

But, pointing out that bad things happen is Doomerism, so that's totally safe to ignore.

My favorite thing about that whole saga was that Steve Doocey tried to make it into a "pattern" and showed a clip of Obama eating a steak "dry" and used it as another example of him being weird and elitist for not using ketchup.
