You really can't spin this one Mehdi, but keep trying if it makes you feel better

that's a fair assessment. and there's still things that needs to be address: -voting rights - civil liberties - the doj and fbi

@djrothkopf - nice to see you on @mehdihasanshow! Would love to hear @mehdirhasan on @deepstateradio at some pt! The pod discuss.'s are great but usu. on the measured/calm side (at least to me😉). Occas. I just crave an unbridled blistering rage rant - & Mehdi excels at those!😁

This 20 year war is on all the administrations

He has forgotten to mention a minus -7 or -8 🙄

I can understand people who want to leave, need to leave but how can one become “deserving to leave their country”. What’s the qualification criteria for this evacuation? Else the whole population would want to leave 😊.

Not the 11 Trump would have claimed for doing less than a tenth of what this administration accomplished

Oh, please. It barely reaches 5. A real clusterfuck, no contingency plan and a last minute effort that leaves so many behind.

It wasn’t an evacuation it was a retreat it was a surrender how is this clown going to get the remaining the Americans out of Afghanistan? You don’t withdraw your troops until all civilians are out.

Under these conditions, the largest airlift in history and in such a short time, these courageous efforts warrant a 9 or 10–success.
