> The outcome in Afghanistan gave everyone the impression America will back down. Trump kept everyone off balance. You mean the outcome of the withdrawal plan that Trump agreed to? Biden was damned if he did and damned if he didn't: - The US is weak for withdrawing - The US doesn't stick to its agreements

That's a false dilema. Biden wasn't criticized for withdrawing from Afghanistan, he was criticized for doing a bad job at withdrawing.

  What should he have done differently to have done a good job?

    Kept Bagram air base until the evacuation was complete for starters. Not droning innocent civilians and then fibbing on the way out would have been nice as well. Maybe not left so much heavy equipment and arms?
