“Trump continued bashing the withdrawal from Afghanistan this week, and he brought up the incredibly stupid credibility argument again …. It is ridiculous to claim that the withdrawal from Afghanistan had anything to do with the invasion of Ukraine, but it is truly deranged to claim that it somehow led to the October 7 attack in Israel because of a ‘lack of respect’ for the U.S. … Trump repeats the discredited credibility argument as if he were a full-fledged member of the foreign policy establishment.” (08/26/24)
