>> Conservatives who just a few years ago were praising Trump’s new “America first” attitude and his withdrawal from Iraq are now wailing that Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan is the sign of a dying, decaying empire
Loses me when author gets an opening premise so wrong. Conservatives aren't wailing about the withdrawal topically (which is what Trump was advocating for while in office - an end to the "forever wars", remember?), they're wailing about the manner in which it was done, which is to say utterly horribly and shocking to the conscience.
- nanis 5y agoAs I listen to him, I can't help but wonder if there is an exact figure on the number of people who are not the President of the U.S. to blame. Just listened to Biden blaming everyone else for 10 minutes, specifically the people who are dying or will die soon, before he said the "buck stops with me." JK
