Trump, not Biden, order the release of 5,000 Taliban fighters from prison, one of whom would become the leader of Afghanistan.

Trump, not Biden, advocated inviting the Taliban to Camp David on the anniversary of September 11th. Seriously.

Trump, not Biden, agreed to a May 1st exit from Afghanistan, then bragged that he didn't need an exit 'strategy'.

Trump, not Biden, refused to brief the incoming administration on the situation in Afghanistan.

Trump, not Biden, shut down every airbase in Afghanistan, leaving the air force with only one, easily targeted by the Taliban.- goofy
