How is Obama reducing troops by 90% and promising to get them all out and not doing so, better than Trump

29 February 2020: The US and the Taliban sign an “agreement for bringing peace” to Afghanistan, in Doha, Qatar. The US and Nato allies agree to withdraw all troops within 14 months if the militants uphold the deal
