Biden is responsible for the withdrawal. So are the generals. So is Trump. Both parties are responsible for a pointless 20 years of feeding the beast. Both parties are responsible for the rise of the Taliban.

Sure but ultimately ...

Winterborn wins the internets today....

Pentagon strategy chief Colin Kahl is in the hot seat over his role in the Biden administration's bungled Afghanistan withdrawal, four months after Senate Republicans unanimously opposed his nomination and warned that his appointment would be disastrous for national defense policy.

Kahl, the civilian head of policy planning at the Department of Defense and third highest ranking department official, has been a key player in planning for the Afghanistan withdrawal and the day-to-day policy decisions on the ground. While several Biden administration officials have been publicly defending the president’s decision to withdraw from Afghanistan, Republican foreign policy leaders say Kahl is the behind-the-scenes player largely responsible for the botched evacuation of Afghanistan and decision to leave Americans stranded in the country. The GOP lawmakers, who also have criticized Secretary of State Antony Blinken and White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan, now say their fears about Kahl's lack of fitness for the role are coming to pass.

Sen. Bill Hagerty (R., Tenn.), a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, told the Washington Free Beacon that Kahl "should never have been nominated by the president or confirmed by the Senate" and should be held responsible for the Biden administration's failures in Afghanistan, including for the hundreds of Americans who have reportedly been left behind. "In Kahl, we have someone not even qualified for a security clearance at the center of President Biden's incompetently planned and disorderly withdrawal from Afghanistan."

True, but I took it more of they displayed a lack of competence by messing up, so show some integrity and step down.

Wasn't it around Bill Clinton's time our officials quit stepping down for large displays of incompetence.

If the last guy had any integrity he wouldn't have sexually assaulted women, stiffed subcontractors and blaming others any time something bad happened.

If we're going to talk about integrity we should hold everyone to the same standards.

I think you are conflating personal and nation representing acts.

Yep. Plenty of things to knock Trump's integrity on, but not bolding anyone accountable for shitting the bed of this magnitude that resulted in hundreds of Americans abandoned in Afghanistan, no doubt what will be thousands of deaths, and arming a Terrorist organization with American hardware easily takes the cake.

Biden should absolutely be held accountable, he fvcked this up royally, but Trump supporters talking about integrity is yugely hypocritical.

The difference between Trump and Biden's admins has been depth of incompetence not integrity.
