And Trump had already resolved to remove it,

Not only had Trump resolved to remove the military from Afghanistan, he had taken concrete steps toward doing so. I believe the troop count was down to about 2500 before Biden was inaugurated. (Down from somewhere in the high 10s to low 20 thousands a year or two earlier.)

And let's not forget that Biden actually delayed the withdrawal from the plans laid out by Trump. He did so to better insure safety during the withdrawal and to get more cooperating Afghan civilians out of the country before the last troops left.
