Evil leaders occasionally do the right thing. Hitler got protection of animals laws passed in Germany and campaigned against smoking. Donald Trump, as far as I can tell, did nothing positive, but I may have missed something.
I won't compare Joe Biden to Trump or Hitler. Joe Biden is recognizably human. I don't like his history with women or his centrism, but eleven years ago, he began telling people we should get out of Afghanistan. We were, in his view, finished there. We would not succeed in changing the culture. It was time to pack up and fly home.
No one in power agreed. Eleven years went by. Americans kept dying in Afghanistan, and our forces kept killing local people. Same old thing. Now Biden is president and he's bringing the Americans back. We've lost another war. Some of the generals don't like it, but Biden is doing the right thing.
