Agreed. I didn't see it at the time (i.e. that Afghani security forces would -in essence- flee the moment we left), but given that state of affairs, they were going to crumble no matter who was POTUS.

I read that the Afghan government decided the US wasn't going to leave, and made no military preparations for our exit. If so, that helps explain whey they folded and fled.
