The fight for Afghanistan is to see whether the leaders in Kabul or the Taliban get to molest young boys.

I suggest that the US doesn't have a dog in this fight.

My general question is, at what point can we say we got even for September 11th?

We went into Afghanistan because the Taliban government gave safe harbor to Bin Laden. Bin Laden was killed years ago.

So why are we still there?

How cute that he thinks there will ever be a Republican President again.

Or maybe he means they won’t be considered for Designated Loser.

Rigged elections are impossible to win.

Human Events is the paleo conservative chronicle.
And Reagan’s favorite.

He’s referring to Sasse, Romney and Rubio, all of whom have criticized Trumps move. McConnell has too, but he’s not running for president

Trump isn’t cutting the presence to zero. Is he removing himself from future presidential contention?

Well said. We’re still there because W decided to try his hand at nation building while he was there. Then it became like the tar baby.

It's waste of time giving a damn about this issue.

Every Republican candidate in the future will be eliminated from Presidential consideration if the voter fraud that occurred in this election continues in future ones.

Trump has ordered a big drawdown. He is being attacked by a number of Republicans, including McConnell, Sasse, Romney and (in a roundabout way) Rubio. It is NOT a waste of time to stand up for Trump against these snakes

The Deep State will put up the usual fake Republican candidates like Jeb. They might even let them “win” knowing it is a meaningless difference between them and the democrats, but it provides the proles the illusion of control.

That is what we've been told.

If we don’t prevail in the ongoing theft of the Presidency every decent Republican will already be removed from presidential consideration regardless. The only ones who might have a chance will be the Military-Industrial Complex cheerleaders currently advocating for the Afghan war.

Jeb Bush 2024!

“So why are we still there?”

I’ve been asking that question since I was mobilized for Operation Desert Shield/Storm in 1992!

Bring our kids, and in some cases, GRANDKIDS, HOME!

We’re never, EVER going to be able to straighten out the ME.

As always - follow the money! SOMEONE is making BIG MONEY off of American Blood & Treasure!

We should tell the Talivan that if they seize power again and strat acting atrocious after we have that we will strat usuming tactical nuclear weapons on them and poison all their opium poppy crop lands .

Pick a remote Afghan mountain valley, where we know they are hiding out and demonstrate an example.
Crop spray a goodly part of Helmand .

Sasse just got 67% of the vote in his race. Romney would have gotten a similar number, too. Little Marco is planning on using Hispanics as his base and MAGA voters are not his prioirty. These guys just do not care about what the GOP base wants. Never have. Never will.
