    I think he showed it during his four years in office and I have heard his SecState and SecDef and VP all confirm as we knew then it was a CONDITIONAL drawdown. They don't care if we are in their country their Jihad has no boundaries.

    OH you think our former assets in those areas are going to be sending us information when we have NO resources in the area? They're in hiding and trying to get our as fast as they can. You think the Taliban is going to give us permission to fly our drones and and have our CIA operated there?

    There is no adequate air cover. Quit with the propaganda. It's not a good look.

    That is one strange leap of logic. There is no answer to something so ridiculous.

    All he showed in for years is he's a grifter
    So if it's conditional, what happened? To say they don't care if we are in their country is LOL stuff. Thanks

    "No one left behind." Well, evidently that no longer matters. Biden believes this will just blow over.

    Amazing that someone will vote against their own interests. This administration has been a 7 month disaster.

    And you're a military expert that knows our resources for air cover? Talk about not having a good look.

    The border is and will be taken care of. No compassion there by you but you sure don't have a problem with Afghans coming here. Strange. Inflation is world wide. The jury is still out on Afghanistan.

    You evidently think people dying in deserts, women getting raped, trying to get here because Biden invited them in is 'compassion'.

    I didn't support Trump's plan......................got that now? You can't hid Biden behind Trump's skirts. It was Biden who decided it would not be conditional.

    Then stop trying to deflect to him to try and excuse this colossal failure by the Biden administration.

    They were sent to El Paso which is as far west as you can get in Texas. But that's just temporary. Like the illegals, they will probably be spread around the country.

    I live in Dallas now... but I was born in the west Texas "Permian Basin" area which is mostly desert and oil.

    Yikes, I just saw your dinosaur avatar... I was afraid of dinosaurs as a kid [still am !]

    Trump/Pompeo negotiated this withdrawal. Basically, Biden agreed with them.
