But there's no plausible scenario where under a Trump Administration, the prior Afghani government would have resisted falling to the Taliban upon our withdrawal.

That's not a certainty. A series of A-10 strikes on a Taliban convoy of Toyota Hiluxes would have slowed them down.

The same outcome would have occurred under Trump - it was baked into our decision to withdraw from the country, and Trump had already made that call.

Facts not in evidence. It's not a binary thing "We said we would withdraw, therefore all troops would have been withdrawn".

Only Joe Biden took the "withdraw" as a pell-mell rush to the exits. That's 100% on him, not Trump. Nobody told Joe Biden to mess this up to the degree he did.
