Trump signed a shitty deal.

Biden should have listened to the intelligence agencies who said the Taliban were ripping through the country. The nerds on Twitter knew it was happening. No way the DOD and other Intel agencies didn't.

We should have kept us forces at Bagrum and used it as staging for evacuation.

Total withdrawal failure by all parties involved.

The military had nowhere near the military assets available to defend bagram without the ANA, which clearly collapsed in a week.

That's really weird, because the guys running the operation outright said they did not have the military assets available to secure both Bagram and the Kabul embassy.

Securing Bagram would have required the ANA, which was in the process of collapsing. We could have surged troops, but that was seemingly off the table in line with the agreement signed with the Taliban.

Take a peak at my original comment laying out the total failure.
