4/ Our presence was also a deadly feedback loop. Taliban and extremist recruiters fed off our occupation. For instance, strong evidence suggests our drone strikes created more Taliban fighters than they killed. https://t.co/DPsxidjQHB — PolitiTweet.org

3/ And the Taliban has been gaining territory steadily over the last decade, even when we had 10,000+ troops. It turns out building an American-style military in a country w/o a sense of nationalism is impossible. We had a plan that only worked on paper. https://t.co/pYPirsliJx — PolitiTweet.org

5/ And finally, 2,500 troops - the number Trump drew down to in compliance with his agreement w/ the Taliban - was not enough to stop the Taliban advance. Biden would have had to triple that number if he chose to breach the Trump-Taliban agreement. https://t.co/9J4L9YPw6h — PolitiTweet.org
