The Case Against Pulling Out of Afghanistan This Year | Rep. Mike Waltz | GZERO World

This week, US Congressman Mike Waltz (R-FL), a combat-decorated Green Beret who served multiple tours in Afghanistan, joins GZERO World to explain why he thinks President Biden's announcement will end in catastrophe, for Afghans and Americans alike.
