31. BS cut the right-wing smear

I support the President and the situation was never going to be a cake walk. Those Americans in there should've gotten out a year ago.
To stay would mean supporting the lies and corruption. Yes trump made the situation worst by releasing 5000 Taliban and created a May exit. That's at least a year ago.

It's comes off like you're a trump supporter. The GOP created the entire situation by going into that country.
