Former federal prosecutor and Fox News host Trey Gowdy shared his thoughts about the controversial Afghanistan exit with Brian Kilmeade on his nationally syndicated radio show Tuesday.

Gowdy believes the mainstream media will focus its attention elsewhere to distract the public from what he believes was a disastrous end to the 20-year war.

"I think the Politicos and The New York Times…The Washington Posts of the world are going to pivot now," said Gowdy. "I do trust the real jury, the American people."

Last week, a suicide bomber killed 13 U.S. service members and more than 100 Afghans.

Gowdy urged conservative media outlets to continue to report on Afghanistan and the aftermath of the troop withdrawal."So, I think if given the choice, do we continue to write stories about the disaster that is Afghanistan and give Kevin McCarthy a chance to be the Speaker of the House?"
