I mean, anybody who went over there and thought that we were ever going to put some type of democracy or we were ever going to have, you know, build a military up in Afghanistan that was going to be able to sustain itself as soon as we leave.
They were just they were just kidding themselves.
Right.
But but with that being said, you know, how do I justify it?
And I justify it this right.

And what I'll tell you is, is for 20 years,
Afghanistan and Iraq were safer than they'd ever been.

I mean, look, I think that I mean, this is this is his way.
