Get out of the Middle east!! Nuke up and close the damned borders. Get women out of the military combat positions NOW. Make America Great again. Not fricken Afghanistan!! DON’T CARE!!

[2ndDivisionVet]

Ted Cruz or Pence

[Brilliant]

If they don’t reopen the gov soon they will have no choice. We aren’t going to strand tens of thousands of us troops in a war zone with no way to get home and no support.

[rktman]

Well, works for me. Troops home that is.

BTW I’m now able to post without review! woohoo! thanks guys, i will not abuse this privilege.

Afghanistan is our Western Front or launching ground for China. In case we go to war. That way they will have 2 fronts. The other side being Japan and South Korea.

[Kazan]

We need a base of operation in the middle east, not only to combat terrorism that threatens national security but also if there ends up being a bigger war at some point.

Rand's foreign policy in indistinguishable from Obama's and that is one reason he'll never be the GOP nominee.

Put them on our border. Armed.

[Nateman]

I've been saying for years the fight in Afghanistan is foolish. Its Constitution is explicitly Islamic. That is not something you want to fight for, it's something you should fight against .

Rather than invade their countries , kill their leadership and convert them to Christianity the easy strategy is to get them fighting and feuding against each other. They will happily engage in such insanity since heaven requires you die in battle so they kill the nearest Moslem who they consider not Islamic enough!

[TigersEye]

We spend $46 BILLION a year in Afghanistan! How about we take that money and build roads and bridges and strengthen border security here in America?

And a wall! :)

I’m a Rand Paul fan, too. Guy has common sense, a rare attribute in a politician.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Send Rand Paul to Afghanistan. He’ll defeat the Taliban by boring them to death with his fantasies. He’s getting to be as bad as his father (who was a certified nutjob).

[grania]

There's no excuse for troops still being in Afghanistan. There was a news report about a year ago that President Trump got talked back "for a short time" so Afghan officials could prepare for our leaving.

President Trump gets talked back on stuff, then situations are created so they don't happen. It's with troops, with the wall, with infrastructure,...…

I do wish President Trump spent more time listening to Rand Paul

[centurion316]

I don’t need Rand Paul’s opinion on any topic and our President doesn’t need it either. He should stay in Canada after his surgery and run for Prime Minister. He would be a good fit.

[John O]

I agree with him entirely. We are not there doing anything that will change that country. They will still be moslem when we leave. We are not even killing enough of them to slow down the spread of the plague.

We need to get out and quarantine them. Who cares what the savages do in their own country as long as they are not allowed to leave it.
