and you are ignoring the fact that Biden had plenty of time to modify or change or cancel Trump's agreements. He had no problem cancelling Trump's agreements with Mexico.

 

The sitting POTUS is responsible for what happens on his watch, and can't weasel out of that by blaming someone else.

You also ignoring the fact that any delay in modifying or cancel the agreement would mean more troops sent to fight in Afghanistan that could result in more American soldiers dying. 

 

I can agree that the withdrawal was chaotic and under Biden's watch but he was severly handcuffed by Trump's Taliban deal too. The blame falls on both man.

Did you mean the "demise" of the US, or that other countries will come to despise the US if she wins? IMO both.

You sure about that? According to PEW, most countries have confidence in Kamala Harris to do the right thing regarding world affairs.
 

You and Hungary are the exception that  have low confidence for obvious reason.

With a willing, indeed fawning press Harris can do and say what she wants.

How is it that eighteen is most countries, did I miss something? 

 

From your link: 

"Confidence in Harris is roughly comparable to international confidence in U.S. President Joe Biden, as well as French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz."

No one is weaseling out of anything if you learn to read and stop making excuses and trying to deflecting. Biden did change the final part of the withdrawal and delayed it. Trump had already executed his part of the withdrawl. As you say the POTUS at the time of the withdrawl was started was trump. You can't cancel something that already happened. What would you have had Biden do, send the 13000 troops back ?

He could have got all the guys that helped the US out, and he could have had all the equipment that couldn't be removed destroyed. He had months to do that. Seems he didn't care much as he did sod all to change anything, except keep them there longer.

You just won't let it go will you? Trump made the problem but like him you just want to blame someone else. Believe what you want.  Your time in this is up. Have a great day.

For Harris to be compared as equal to those incumbent head of states is quite remarkable and a honour.

Biden is the incumbent. Listening to the Harris campaign, one would think Trump was still in office.

Exactly. Democrats have been in power 12 of the last 16 years, yet based on the tone of the Harris campaign you would think they were fighting against an entrenched power structure. When, in fact, Harris IS the entrenched power structure.
