You really think the Taliban would not have taken advantage either way and trust them to have kept the deal they supposedly made with Trump? Come on... Once we were out of the way they were likely going to try to take over no matter what. This would have likely resulted in the same outcome no matter if under Biden or Trump.
And lets be honest, Trump himself wasn't exactly a good strategist either and was quick to replace anyone who didn't go along with his own ideas, so there is no telling how that really would have gone down.
Afghanistan definitely needed more prep before we decided to walk away, but after 20 years... they had plenty time and should not have assumed we'd be there doing this for them forever. Although we aren't the only country walking away either.
