When in Office, Trump Made a Deal with Taliban Who Killed US Soldiers

Just like Ronald Reagan fled before Hezbollah after it killed 241 US marines in Beirut then secretly sold weapons to archenemy Iran; just like George HW Bush who made a deal with Syria to get US hostages held in Beirut and get Assad to join the Anti-Saddam coalition, here's this hypocrite Republican then-president Donald Dumb who made a deal with the Taliban who killed 13 US Suckers and Losers in Kabul airport, and is now visiting their tombs at Arlington in a fake insincere campaign move. 

By the way, here are the names of the dead 13 US soldiers. Do you notice a "migrant" flavor to half of their names? Had these people not joined the army and worn the uniform, Republicans would refer to them as "garbage". But having donned the uniform and gotten killed because of Donald Trump's treacherous deal with the Taliban, they are now elevated to "heroes". Racism is put aside, temporarily, while they wear the uniform. It's not enough to be a human being in America to be respected, especially if you're not a white "foundational" stock of English settlers. You must carry a gun and get killed to "earn" that respect.

Ex–Trump Adviser Drops Bombshell About Trump’s Taliban Deal

Donald Trump may have made the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan worse for President Biden.

General H.R. McMaster told CNN’s Anderson Cooper Monday night that Trump, while president, sought to negotiate with the Taliban as U.S. troops began leaving Afghanistan, which undermined the Afghan government. As a result, the U.S. government forced the Afghan government to release 5,000 members of the Taliban.

The former national security adviser was on CNN to discuss his new book, At War With Ourselves: My Tour of Duty in the Trump White House. The revelation puts the chaos of the 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan into greater context, as conservatives sought to lay much of the blame onto Biden and successfully pushed that narrative into media coverage.

It’s the latest damaging revelation from McMaster’s book. Last week, an early excerpt from the book detailed how Russian autocrat Vladimir Putin was able to manipulate Trump by playing on his “ego and insecurities.” On Monday, another newly revealed excerpt described meetings in the Oval Office as “exercises in competitive sycophancy” where Trump made particularly “outlandish” suggestions, including one instance in which he asked, “Why don’t we just bomb the drugs?” in regards to narcotics in Mexico.

McMaster is one of many of Trump’s former national security officials to criticize the now convicted felon for his conduct as president. One of his other former national security advisers, John Bolton [who referred to him as a moron], said earlier this month that Trump “can’t tell the difference between what’s true and what’s false.”

Former White House chief of staff John Kelly has described the former president as “a person that has no idea what America stands for and has no idea what America is all about.A person that has nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law. There is nothing more that can be said.”

“God help us.”
