I think some people have problems with your evaluation of the last few points.
I’m not gonna give him credit for calling off the war with Iran, since it was his own stupid decisions that got us there.
There are a lot of NATO fans here, so you’re catching flak for the +/- evaluation on both of those points.
The withdrawal from Afghanistan was a goddamn trainwreck, so I don’t think he should get points for that. Not entirely his fault, because the actual exodus didn’t happen under his watch, but his timeline certainly didn’t set his successor up for success.
But in general, saying anything even vaguely complementary towards Orange Julius is gonna earn you some downvotes around here.

It’s still -1 on Iran, blowing up Soleimani was insane.

In 2010, the Afghani people had 3 problems, the US, Kabul, and the Taliban.
Now they have 1 problem. It was bound to be this way since the day we went in and gave the people a bigger problem than the Taliban. Kabul wasn’t even part of the negotiations.
