      It'll be more of the same. 'We can't take out the troops from Afghanistan because that would endanger the troops'.

      My lib family say 'We need troops there' but can't explain their rationale, the imperial police state is thoroughly intwined into lib DNA.

        I don’t follow...why would withdrawing from Afghanistan put the troops at risk? I’m not trying to debate or anything but I literally cannot follow the rationale for it lol

          That talking point was making the rounds on CNN/MSNBC by the Susan Rice types after Trump tried bringing home troops. The thinking is the region will be de-stabilized if we leave, imperiling troops in the neighborhood.

          It's just a way to acclimate libs to the idea of troops staying on the ground in perpetuity.

        hey remember when the Afghanistan Papers got leaked and it showed they've been completely lying for 20 years
