I love how Mitch McConnell and other Republicans are saying this withdrawal is 'premature'. I guess 19 years just isn't enough.
The current Trump nominee for ambassador to Afghanistan, Will Ruger, understands that. As an insider and one of the foremost voices among conservative realist circles, he said what is now evident to a lot of observers, and will be a lesson for future conservative leadership: unless the administrative team is willing to follow through with the president’s policies, there’s zero value in conservative electoral wins.
In a New York Times interview, Ruger was quoted saying, “The president has had difficulty finding personnel who would faithfully execute on his preferences,” adding that now is the last chance for Trump to cement his legacy and stand for what he believed during his campaigning: ending fruitless wars.
Conservatives need to let that sink in and formulate a plan to fix it. Start by reducing the scale and scope of governement.
Start by reducing the scale and scope of governement.
Therein lies the dilemma. Very few who go to Washington with that intent aren't corrupted by the swamp.
this withdrawal is 'premature'
Of course! Greater Israel™ still needs another few years in the oven....
