For me, there of course, doesnt mean i agree with you, expect a job in the new administration is not up to me waiting to hear if anyone is interested in my doing it. Because when you say then the you want a withdrawal, perhaps a phased withdrawal, even joe biden, very quick to say that trump has been wrong to withdraw troops from afghanistan, and that joe biden cited the erroneous reports apparently of russian bounties. On a u. S. Troops heads, thats very different t
