To be fair, you can't really blame braindead for this... he's not even aware what's happening on his fake set, let alone how pathtetic the Aghanistan pullout really was... the woke general probably organized it... but braindead is still supposed to be in charge...

The Pentagon spent an estimated $85 billion over the past 20 years on the ANA, including on weapons, equipment and paying the soldiers’ salaries.

...US President Joe Biden announced in March that all US troops would be withdrawn from Afghanistan by September, insisting that the Afghan Army was more than capable of holding off the Taliban. Instead, the Taliban captured Kabul without a fight by August 14, leaving the US scrambling to evacuate thousands of Americans and Afghan allies via the capital’s civilian airport...
