In an exclusive interview with Fox News, Trump blamed the Biden Administration for intentionally moving on from the departure and its ongoing aftermath.
"They don't talk about it anymore. They don't talk about it, purposely," Trump stated. "It was so bad that it was killing him. Two, three days after it ended, they stopped even mentioning it."
"What they did with the so-called withdrawal, which was really a surrender, what they did, it was the most embarrassing, horrible thing, and I don't know that we ever psychologically recover from that," Trump announced.

Trump, during his Administration, brokered a deal with the Taliban for a May 2021 troop departure.
"Don't forget, I'm the one that brought it down to 2,500 troops," Trump announced. "I would have been out too, but we would have been out with strength. We would have come out with strength."

Trump explained to Fox News that even while he planned to ultimately withdraw from Afghanistan, he would have maintained a hold over the Parwan Detention Facility—a military jail at the Bagram Air Base.
The Biden Administration removed all U.S. forces from Bagram in July. The Pentagon stated in August that the Taliban had released "thousands" of ISIS-K inmates from the prison.

"We would have kept Bagram because it is next to China," Trump revealed. "And it is one hour away from their nuclear facility, and we gave that up too."
He continued: "And now China's going to take over Bagram, in my opinion."
In the meantime, Trump blasted the Biden Administration for pulling the military out first, amid reports of hundreds of American citizens and U.S. visa holders remaining in Afghanistan under Taliban rule.
"We would have gotten all the people out, we would have brought all of our equipment out, we wouldn't have had dead soldiers, we wouldn't have soldiers missing arms and legs—because people don't even talk about that—we lost 13, but we have many that have been gravely wounded," Trump announced. "None of that would have happened."

Trump continued to say that he holds "the generals responsible because they should have never allowed that to happen."
"They must have been able to talk [Biden] into reason," Trump stated. "But you have to hold them responsible also for allowing that to happen."
