Even if it was the same plan, execution is the problem. I can have a plan to go to a job interview but if I show up naked and shit on the floor, I didn't nail the execution did I? Biden doesn't know where he is. Everyone knows he's weak. When the "resident of the USA and co." were putting out tic toks that include flaming homosexual influencers, goat fuckers were taking over Afghanistan.
Right I get you. But How do we know Biden's execution was different from Trumps given the same situation, is what I mean. Are we just assuming?
Well the Biden administration didn’t tell the Afghan government about the withdrawal. They just did it. There are reports afghan government just found out hours after the bases were evacuated. This made sure they didn’t have time to prepare.

On top of that, the taliban performs their raids in the summer, while hiding in Pakistan during the winter. Right now, versus May, is actually peak time for them.
