That's a more nuanced and great question.

I think the answer you'll find is that there are people on this forum and elsewhere who believe that Trump was a better leader than Biden and hence would have handled it better. I've even seen one poster who believes that the Democrats always make a hash of things.

And still a presence in Iraq.

No it isn’t, not when the person asking it, you Maggy, is venomously anti-Trump.

We'll bomb you to hell, we've been doing that for years donny and were doing it with depleted uranium ordinance at the start causing a spike in birth defects on top of everything else iirc. Bomb them to hell, they're already in it

I think it is, just because you don't like someone doesn't mean you can't ask a perfectly reasonable unbiased question involving them, especially as no opinion was even proferred

Actual US combat operations ended back in 2015, under Obama. Special Forces may have had a few missions, but other than that, no direct military action took place under Trump.


Not offering an opinion is a lot better than somebody who bases "their"(ie told by somebody else) opinions on falsehoods and bias.

Is that a really poor attempt at sarcasm?

Nope, it was a question to someone's comment. Do you think that the past twenty years air & ground offensive in Afghanistan has resulted in anything of note?

Apart from the Taliban gaining access to large amounts of US/NATO military hardware of course
