There was always going to be aggro when the US pulled out of Afghanistan no matter who was President, Trump had planned the withdrawal and there is no evidence to suggest he would have done any different to Biden timescale wise if he’d been re-elected. What has happened since the withdrawal should leave no one in doubt just how barbaric the Taliban are, yes I’m going to say it, bloody religion again. The other points have been addressed by other posters so JI thanks for responding and though I don’t share your reasoning for Biden to be named as idiot of the year, at least you fleshed out your thinking why. It’s basically the difference of how we look at the world and how it should be run for the betterment for all or at least as many as we can run it better for. Whether it’s how wealth is created and distributed better for the many and how we care for people in a better fairer way, or how we see ourselves on the world stage and how we address countries being invaded by others on the flimsiest of reasons. It’s a huge task and there are no easy answers but I sure don’t put Joe Biden in the same camp as Putin when it comes to how a powerful country should be run and how it should act on the world stage. Nobody is perfect but if you said to me who I would prefer if I had only two choices of person to run the UK, either Biden or Putin, well it wouldn’t be Putin. Hope your laptop problems are resolved soon.
