As part of the United States–Taliban deal, the Trump administration agreed to an initial reduction of US forces from 13,000 to 8,600 troops by July 2020, followed by a complete withdrawal by 1 May 2021, if the Taliban kept its commitments.
Joe Biden decided to uphold the “treaty/agreement” rather than making the US seem like an inconsistent group of welchors.
Now he stands in a cemetery, puting on a show, where he plays the role of a solemn broken hearted former head of state, untouched by his own failed executive order. And he blames Biden for not detecting and putting an end to his madness.
None of us have ever been under the illusion that the vice president is anything more than a figure and not a head. The Vice President carries out the orders of the President. He/she “might” be allowed to offer an opinion, but the president does as he/she wishes – as he/she should. But 45 demamds that Vice president Harris take responsibility for her part in the way things worked out when his failed policy clouded the judgement of his predecessor.
Madam Vice President Harris may well have been the last one in the room when President Biden made his decisioñ to walk away from Afghanistan, and whether she agreed or disagreed is hardly relevant to the outcome at hand, since the deed has been done and the next president will be charged with the next step in that saga.
35 knows full well that the vice president has only one power, and it overrides the vision, will and even the evil wishes of leader, intent on holding on to power in the face of the truth. At that point in time vice president, Mike Pemce held more power than his president, when he certified the election of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
