Trump wants Bagram back.

How many military bases do we have around the world? 800+?

Do we really need to go back to that shitty country to add another foreign military base to the tally? What neocon is putting this idea in Trump's head?

If anything we need to be reducing that number, not adding to it. We are overextended militarily and the resulting debt is going to crush our nation. This is late stage empire bullshit.
Thats the plan.
 
Working a "deal" with them is not invading them. Given as Trump ironed out the deal that got us out of there, they may work with him.

Biden n co are who dropped the base, that was never part of the og plan.

Getting Clark back up to snuff would be a good idea too.

I could see Trump making that deal but I could also see the next Dem President/Congress fucking it up somehow. Or Afghan terrorists going bananas and attacking it. The Taliban government is probably more solid and functional than the previous group of goat herders was though so there's that.

Yes, there is some risk there.

I don't think we should go take it by force. If... and that is a big open if, we can work with them we should. It could be mutually beneficial.
