I dont want to hear from GOP who insisted on more troops for 20 yrs and then cheered Trump pull out. I don't want to hear from "end forever wars" crowd who refused to see this is the consequences. — PolitiTweet.org

@TODAYshow @RichardEngel phenomenal reporting — PolitiTweet.org

@AlexThomp the best defense possible, but the execution was still inexcusably bad — PolitiTweet.org

Every president inherits his predecessor’s mistakes, but if one is to widely depart from the status quo (e.g., pull out of the Iran nuclear deal, yank troops from Afghanistan) the commander in chief better darn well be sure he is not making matters worse. https://t.co/qNJTo5SbwQ — PolitiTweet.org

Promises of “over the horizon” intelligence and military capacity to prevent that from happening should be taken with a boulder of salt. If we could not grasp developments in Afghanistan when we had troops on the ground, how will we asses from afar? https://t.co/qNJTo5SbwQ — PolitiTweet.org

He was the first president to reject Pentagon spin that the war was “winnable” and Afghan forces were shaping up. However, the decision to fast-forward to complete evacuation without adequate planning will be a blot on Biden’s record. https://t.co/qNJTo5SbwQ — PolitiTweet.org

One can imagine the Taliban’s representatives utterly nonplussed by the notion that they should be motivated by their reputation in the “international community.” https://t.co/qNJTo5SbwQ — PolitiTweet.org
Jennifer "Pro-privacy" Rubin @JRubinBlogger
To accomplish anything resembling an orderly evacuation we have now have 6,000 troops in place. Perhaps we should have started the evacuation of Afghans with that contingent already on the ground. https://t.co/qNJTo5SbwQ — PolitiTweet.org

The “end the forever wars” crowd also deserves a good deal of the blame. That line of argument suggested we could pick up and leave at any time without adverse consequences. — PolitiTweet.org
Jennifer "Pro-privacy" Rubin @JRubinBlogger
The unraveling of the Afghan government only underscored Biden’s argument that it would have made no difference if we could have remained another year or another decade. https://t.co/qNJTo5SbwQ — PolitiTweet.org
Jennifer "Pro-privacy" Rubin @JRubinBlogger
But the military leaders too eager to say “things are getting better” are not the only authors of this tragedy. Countless think-tank experts, military consultants and pundits tut-tutted for 2 decades that if we just sent enough troops, all would be well. https://t.co/qNJTo5SbwQ — PolitiTweet.org
Jennifer "Pro-privacy" Rubin @JRubinBlogger
As the Taliban cut through Afghan forces like butter, prompting the U.S. ambassador to decamp to the airport on Sunday, the overriding reaction among those on both sides of the debate about whether to evacuate all U.S. troops was disgust. https://t.co/qNJTo5SbwQ — PolitiTweet.org

in the last 48 hrs or so press has done solid job of putting this in context, explaining role of prior presidents, explaining what's going on. Why so much better than usual coverage? It is being reported by natl security/ state department reporters not political horserace journos — PolitiTweet.org

That reality freaked out millions of White Christians who do not see “their America” as predominate. It was never “theirs” to begin with, and the assumption that something is amiss if White Christians are not in charge is the essence of white supremacy and Christian nationalism — PolitiTweet.org

The results speak to a truism that millions of R ignore: America is never static. It is — and has always been — in a state of flux, whether it comes to race, religious affiliation (or lack thereof), the divide between native-born and immigrant https://t.co/4ZSlKBzEJ7 — PolitiTweet.org

the know it all quotient is seriously high... people who rooted for 200,000+ troops now blame Biden. People who cheered Trump and now scorn Biden. blech. Let's be honest: 20 years wasted and a rotten way to end it. — PolitiTweet.org

If in 2001 you urged an swift exit after degrading al Qaeda, opposed the Bush and Obama surges, opposed the Trump early deadline, opposed the Biden execution of that deadline congratulations, you got it right. Otherwise join the parade of people who got it seriously wrong — PolitiTweet.org
