“Whatever side one comes down on the merits, no one can seriously dispute that the process was appallingly mishandled by this administration. The president should have sold his decision to congressional leaders, even Democrats, instead of leaving himself vulnerable on the eve of impeachment so unnecessarily.”
Nonsense! The president ran on getting the US the hell out of asinine foreign wars. His decision to withdraw our forces would have been bitched about by the Deep State and its Marxocrat and neo-con RINO cronies in CONgress in any case. The impeachment farce will move forward regardless of what Trump does, but he has now shored up his voter base by fulfilling another election promise. This neutralizes the ability of the CONgress to proceed with their impeachment farce without considering its electoral consequences for Marxocrats in Trump-friendly districts.

I am unaware that those handful of troops were in any independent combat role whatsoever. They were, if anything, acting in an advisory role. Fine. But their withdrawal (with which I agree) should have been handled a hell of a lot better than what it was. As I said in a previous post, the manner in which Trump handled this is inexplicable.
