The choice I had to make as your president was either to follow through on that agreement or be prepared to go back to fighting the Taliban in the middle of the spring fighting season. There would have been no cease-fire after May 1. There was no agreement protecting our forces after May 1. There was no status quo of stability without American casualties after May 1. There was only the cold reality of either following through on the agreement to withdraw our forces or escalating the conflict and sending thousands more American troops back into combat in Afghanistan, and lurching into the third decade of conflict."


He specifically said he was forced into this decision by trump or there would ahve been a conflict.

He blamed trump.

Let alone the only thing that we all can agree is "wrong" currently in afganastan, is that it's a shit show.. not that we shouldnt be leaving..

And the only thing Biden could have done? Was ensure that it wasnt a shit show and that people could leave safely best or worse case scenario.

So unfortunately Biden is at fault here of the current evacuation, and in the above quote he is I think, very clearly trying to deflect blame onto trump.
