[QUOTE="grasping the after wind, post: 76483184, member: 256417"] I am aware of the situation that Biden inherited. You claim Biden had a legal obligation to withdraw from Afghanistan in May. Yet Biden did not fulfill that supposed legal obligation by withdrawing in May, did he? So how then could what Biden did after not fulfilling the promises Trump made be in any way Trump's fault. Trump had no say whatsoever in the time or the manner in which we withdrew. There is no way of knowing how any withdrawal would have proceeded if Trump had been in charge instead of Biden. Perhaps the withdrawal would have been better or perhaps just as bad. Worse is hard to imagine but blaming Trump for Biden's incompetence is not a reasonable thing to do. AFAIK nothing a President promises a foreign entity is legally binding on the United States without the approval of Congress. This is why Trump could legally withdraw from the Paris Accords and from the Agreement with Iran. AFAIK there was no formal legally binding treaty between the Taliban (which at the time was only a terrorist organization and not a sovereign state.) and the United States. [/QUOTE]
