Trump Goes on Fox to Brag About His ‘Great Deal’ with the Taliban: Twitter Crashes in Revolt

By

Things are not going well in Afghanistan, and that will happen whenever one is relying upon the Taliban to honor their word or act like reasonable statesmen (there will not be women speaking for this group). The person who is complaining loudest and hardest about the situation is Donald Trump, who “worked endlessly” in meetings with the Taliban. (See video below)

Trump seems to believe that things would have gone better had the troop withdrawal come under his watch, to which many ask – they why did it not come under his watch? We have every indication from everything we saw in the Trump administration that things would not have gone any better under the Trump administration and perhaps would have gone worse. As of today, there is an agreement to allow the United States to move our people and the Afghanis that supported us out of the country by the end of the month, with up to 10,000 people a day. Could Trump pull that off?

But Trump is on Fox tonight doing his usual thing, defending the perfect work that he did while also slamming Joe Biden and Twitter had an immediate response:

And we’re not sure how one does this but…

How does one take all the soldiers out before you leave?

Others don’t remember this version of Trump’s story:

Above, yes, Trump released 5,000 of the roughest, toughest Taliban fighters as part of this “very good deal,” and these are some of the people leading the Taliban today.

Yet another truth above. Trump and his administration “forgot” to bring in the real government of Afghanistan in this deal. Does anyone remember Trump inviting the Afghani government to Camp David along with the Taliban? No, it was only the Taliban.

Well, Joe Biden didn’t do himself any favors in how this played outm but the stage was set by the Trump administration.

Yep, they had an agreement with the Taliban itself.

So, yes, Twitter helped Trump out a bit in translating Trumpese, but it was Trump who was all over Biden in the last two days as to how the Taliban reacted to news of the pullout.
