You are correct

Deserves to be ignored

    Washington (CNN)Former Defense Secretary Mark Esper said Tuesday that he was concerned that then-President Donald Trump "undermined" the US' 2020 agreement with the Taliban by pushing for US forces to leave Afghanistan without the Taliban meeting the conditions of the deal.

The Trump administration's "Agreement for Bringing Peace to Afghanistan" outlined a series of commitments from the US and the Taliban related to troop levels, counterterrorism and intra-Afghan dialogue aimed at bringing about "a permanent and comprehensive ceasefire."
But, Esper told CNN's Christiane Amanpour, "my concern was that President Trump, by continuing to want to withdraw American forces out of Afghanistan, undermined the agreement, which is why in the fall when he was calling for a return of US forces by Christmas, I objected and formally wrote a letter to him, a memo based on recommendations from the military chain of command and my senior civilian leadership that we not go further -- that we not reduce below 4,500 troops unless and until conditions were met by the Taliban."

Where is Joe, ? by  the way.

Where is Joe?

Nowhere near the Saudi’s glowing orb.

Not trying to get a hotel in Moscow.

Not penning love letters to Little Rocket Man.

Not peddling UV enemas or rectal bleach.

Joe is cleaning up after the incompetent, illegitimate, insurrectionists who preceded his team. 

Joe is wherever real leaders go when they are busy running the country.

Don’t ask trumpers where that is. They won’t know.

Sounds like Trump listened to his generals, where Joe has not - putting us in the current quagmire

But in the end Joe will be the guy who got us out.  Down in history, I guess.  Assuming we don't go back at some level, as we probably should.

These doses will be rushed into the arms of 16-40 year olds.

Tony's photo of Ms Jaberi made me yearn for the days when I could be rushed into the arms of 16-40 year olds.

You can be,  it's simple...buy a boat, hold parties, splash the cash
