listen2me 23 1,541 Posted August 16, 2021 1 minute ago, MDC said: Trump negotiated our withdrawal from Afghanistan with the Taliban. Our puppet government wasn’t invited to the table. It’s okay though: He made them pinky swear not to let al Qaida in. "If bad things happen, we'll go back with a force like no-one's ever seen." lets see what Biden does. The issue isnt getting out of Afghanistan and Taliban takeover. It is Biden's plan to leave failed, stranding tons of people there to be decapitated or used as a bargaining piece.

It’s hard for me to say yet whether the execution was good or bad since withdrawal was always going to be a clusterfock. Im inclined to give Biden a pass since Obungler and Trump both lacked the balls to pull us out of this quagmire. I never said Trump had no good ideas.

This is their form of suicide bombing the US. Just look at the TDS on this site alone. They are all some of the dumbest people ever. Trump destroyed their weak little minds.
