How can anyone in their right mind say this withdrawal from Afghanistan was good? I cannot comprehend how anyone human would condone what has been done. Not only did we abandon those people, we abandoned our own. Left equipment that will be used in whatever evil endeavors they may choose. It is beyond belief. Where is the outcry that would have been deafening if President Trump had done such a thing?

Should we have pulled out of Afghanistan? Perhaps so, but the way it was done is criminal, unforgivable, inhumane and certainly not acceptable. Is this the example we show the world and our children of who we are? May God forgive us as a nation and take control of our government officials, whoever they may be.
