-Telegraphing an exact withdrawal date to the Taliban, who had been closing in on Kabul for over a year.
-Tightening rules of engagement so much that a Marine sniper who had positive identification on the bomber who killed 13 troops was never given authorization to take the shot.
-Pulling all US support for the Afghan National Army months before the withdrawal.
-Choosing political optics over tactical and strategic soundness by withdrawing from the middle of Kabul instead of the remote fortress of Bagram airfield.
-Publicly committing to keeping troops in Afghanistan until every American and ally was safely out of the country, then abandoning thousands of them and consigning them to death at the hands of the Taliban.
-Ordering a drone strike on an innocent family then sending Gen. Milley out to call it a "righteous strike."
-Blaming his predecessor for his failures instead of taking responsibility for a plan he fully drafted and implemented as Commander-in-chief.
-Lying to the grieving families of the troops killed in the Kabul bombing by telling them his son died in Iraq.
-Checking his watch during the funerals of the troops who died in the Kabul bombing.

If something is done intentionally, and the person responsible could have and should have expected the eventual result, and that person does not regret said result, can you still call them mistakes?
@R3volutionUnicornGreen3mos3MO
who created the Taliban's army?

I don't thank bad employees. I fire them.
I am not thankful for a narcissistic lying currpt politician whose every major decision screwed the American people.
I am not thankful that this senile old puppet pervert president was installed to cut the Keystone pipeline, halt American energy production, halt the sale of natural gas, surrender weapons, armaments, and American lives to the terrorist Taliban in a catastrophic debacle of surrender. I am not thankful that Biden is doing nothing to prevent more American deaths from fentynl than 2 world wars in 2 years.
I am not thankful for a corrupt control freak running our good country filled with good people into the dirt.

"Sir the special counsel's report is bad. There are questions regarding your age and mental fitness to handle the job and another four years."
"I know, let's remind them how well the Afghanistan withdrawal went."
@Bl4ckBallotSteveRepublican3mos3MO
I wonder if it occurs to anyone in the White House that giving up our strategic positions to both east and west of Iran is why they are so emboldened around the world right now
