Trump's attempts to withdraw from Afghanistan thwarted by General Milley and Mitch McConnell
Judging Freedom ^ | August 9, 2022 | Colonel Douglas MacGregor

Col Douglas Macgregor - Will Biden Stumble into a New World War?

The video begins with China concerns; but the really interesting part of it is the in depth information from Colonel MacGregor about Trump's various attempts to pull out of Afghanistan and General Milley (No! no! no!) and Mitch McConnell's refusal to let him do so.

The constitution may say that "The president shall be the commander in chief," but it is now "standard operating procedure" for the Deep State to make those decisions.

Trump had similar experiences trying to pull out of NATO, declassify documents, grant pardons and fire employees. General Milley, the DOJ, McConnell thwarted all attempts.

The Deep State was always making the decisions. Before Trump came along we didn’t know how deep it was.

General Milley sucks but did President Biden make the decision to pull out of Bagram Air Base while we still had people at Kabul International Airport? If so, can’t completely blame our troops and their superiors. Sort of like Black Hawk Down. Our politicans got them in a bad situation.

You can’t blame the troops but you sure can blame the colonels and generals who slunk away under cover of darkness, leaving thousands to their fate. “Just following orders”…didn’t work at Nuremberg.

Milley refused orders from Trump, undermined them, and found ways around. Milley is to blame for the incompetent withdrawal.
Milley is a fat, unskilled, seditious embarrassment who is eyeballs deep in BLM and homo tranny culture.
Tens of thousands have already died over his incompetence. Many more will in the future, and many will be in the US uniform... wasted by his poor decisions.

Trump should have fired him. Lincoln fired Generals who couldn't fight during the Civil War.
