The police forces were mirror imaged in many ways, and we created and developed forces that looked like western forces. and i think one of the big lessons learned here is maybe those forces were not designed appropriately for the type mission. that was something that needs to be looked at. the intelligence, we have talked about. there s a whole series there s probably 10 or 15 major strategic issues, the invasion of iraq and taking forces out of afghanistan and go to iraq and not expanding the military at the same time. the fact we didn t get bin laden right at the beginning of this thing. a whole series of strategic issues that stretch over the 20 years that ultimately lead to a point where we re at right now. on a positive side, if there is a positive to any of this, right, is the people behind me, there s 124,000 people that got taken out by u.s. and ally and coalition airfield. there s 15,000 behind us in the
Democrats, but just his execution of it, the administration s execution of it was so bad that this is a short-term thing and that, you know, six months, nine months, 12 months from now, the administration or the public will give him credit for getting out of afghanistan and forget the way we got out. that s a bet that they re currently making. we will see whether that pays off or not, but again, the credibility issue, moving forward, is going to be something that he may not be able to recover from. he may recover a little bit, but not fully because the american people, what they have seen, once that s gone, it s just impossible to recover. jon: it s the kind of situation where positive news would be welcomed at the white house, but it is difficult to look on the horizon and see any positive news that might be coming down the pike? well, that s why we ve been focused on afghanistan, but what s going on in congress right now is critical because biden s domestic agenda is sort of ha
Do you welcome the competition? the water is warm. i would love to be able to run and crush bill de blasio in 2022. sadly for me saying that bill de blasio is highly unlikely to get past the democratic primary. when he was running for presidents, they were doing polls in iowa where not a single sample was for him, just to show what media thinks of him across the spectrum, they have put up results showing he was at 0.0%. also an interesting rare talent is that he can go speak to nypd at a funeral for law enforcement. they will turn their backs on him. he can go down the block to a blm rally and get shouted and thrown off of that stage next. it is a rare talent i haven t seen others in elected office be able to achieve. i m saying that sarcastic. i don t think he would play well outside of new york city, but i think even inside of new york city, people are fed up with him and are thrilled that he s leaving as mayor. jon: quickly on afghanistan,
