"In hindsight, sticking to Trump's original May 2021 timeline would have been a good idea."

So leave all Americans and Afghan helpers there? Good plan; then you could blame Biden fo abandoning them.

Afghan Evacuation and Resettlement: Two Years Later There’s Still Work To Do (justsecurity.org)

When Kabul fell to the Taliban, the number of applicants seeking to establish their eligibility far exceeded the number of authorizations. Approximately 70,000 applicants were still in Afghanistan at that time, seeking relocation to the United States. By the end of August 2021 DOD had evacuated over 120,000 people, which included not just SIV applicants, but others at risk as well, 74,000 of which were housed on DOD installations in the United States.
