Trump was the one who drew down U.S. military forces from 13,000 to 2500 before he left office after leaving the Afghan government out of the negotiations in which he released 5000 Taliban fighters from prison and set the date of May 1 for total withdrawal. Biden pushed that date to August 31 and as soon as the final withdrawal of American citizens began the Taliban began its blitzkrieg forcing Biden to send back almost 60% of the military personnel that Trump withdrew. Biden's mistake was expecting the Taliban to be more patient. He didn't start this fight but at long last he's trying to finish it and after 20 years there's plenty of blame to go around.
