The failure of intelligence to not be aware the ANA would fold as soon as we left is absolutely terrible. All of their reports were wrong, just two days ago we were hearing the ANA would put up a fight and the Taliban would eventually take over in 1-3 months (long after we had left) and now they're running the country.

But anyone who says this is all on Biden I have no respect for on the subject of politics. This means you Chico. All Biden did was follow through on Trump's plan. I hope everybody who risked their lives to help us makes it out.
There was no failure of intelligence, he was told that the Afghan Army wouldn't hold up, he just chose to ignore that and drive on (Trump was told this too and he didn't care either). Bottom-line Biden is just as bad as Trump on some policies, including this one.

Somehow I feel like you're trying to continue an argument when we both agree on this. Trump's plan was piss poor and Biden deserves blame for following through on it.

Wrong as hell. Again. Nobody including the Intelligence community knew or thought that the Taliban would move so fast. Intelligence was thinking it would be months until the Taliban took over all the territory they have taken over.

I already posted what the military told him. BTW after that anti-mask issue you raised don't you think you have enough egg on your face for one day?
