Don Surber: Trump would have left nothing behind
Thanks to Joe Biden, the Taliban returns to power stronger, more secure, and well-equipped to wreak havoc on anyone in the world of their choosing. He turned over military bases and the records of those who helped the CIA and the USA, which now allows the Taliban to collect and torture thousands of those who foolishly trusted Biden and the USA.

It did not have to end this way.

President Trump gave Biden a plan to evacuate Afghanistan, saving lives and dignity, while not arming the Taliban with the best equipment in the world. He learned from the Fall of Saigon, which happened on Biden's watch as a senator. America left behind equipment and people who helped us. Worse, we left behind our own children, the GI babies who were ostracized by society.

Donald Trump was determined not to do that again.

Biden did it anyway.

President Trump told Miranda Devine of the New York Post what his plan was.

He said, "We were going to not let people get slaughtered. I wanted to get out. But you have to get out safely and you have to get out with respect."

His plan was an American one in which women and children leave first.

He said, "All civilians were going to come out before the military. Everyone should have been out before they took our military out."

Amen.

The richest men on the Titanic went down with the ship. That is how honorable men behave.

Our soldiers are honorable. They would have been the last to leave. And they would have left no equipment or base behind.

Glenn Beck: Why Biden's Afghanistan failure would NOT have happened under Trump

[The Blaze] On the radio program Monday, Glenn Beck and Stu Burguiere agreed that a Taliban takeover might have happened eventually under President Donald Trump — especially with plans to pull U.S. troops out of the nation entirely — but there's "no way" it would have happened the way it did under President Joe Biden.

#1 Oh, yes he would because the mutinous GOs at DoD obviously refused to have plans in place. Those he could 'fire', removed from their billets. See - Truman/MacArthur.
