I mention this in a piece coming tomorrow. Some people are legit anguished, but many others are outraged about AFG based on their partisan priors. As an issue, it doesn't move the needle in political races. https://t.co/pGjnwe8QsX

The Biden administration has failed miserably. Inexcusable.

But Trump administration negotiations literally provided the Taliban with battlefield reinforcements. Among its many, many flaws - the deal required the Afghan government to release 5000 Taliban prisoners. https://t.co/32kJkaS1cf

Translation: “The Afghanistan catastrophe is largely on Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld but because I think history doesn’t exist and I prefer propaganda I’ll blame it on the guy who has been president for seven months and pretend the past two decades never happened.” https://t.co/3JBeYSRa1u

Notice how they say they "set conditions" but they never actually say what the conditions were.

The only condition was that the US would pull out if the Taliban agreed not to attack us or our NATO allies.

The Taliban are actually abiding by the deal Mike made. https://t.co/TRAxnkR8vu

Ronna McDaniel, @GOPChairwoman, why did you just delete this from the Republican Party’s website, praising Donald Trump on his deal with the Taliban? pic.twitter.com/Jg08WWZR5i

Chris Wallace throws Mike Pompeo's past praise for the Taliban back in his face.

"Do you regret giving the Taliban that legitimacy? Do you regret pressing the Afghan government to release 5,000 prisoners... some of whom are now back on the battlefield fighting with the Taliban?" pic.twitter.com/cfISbYYgTD

You are the very last person who should be talking. You started this retreat. You helped invite these barbarians to Camp David on 9/11 & you had to call off the meeting because they began killing people again.

You didn’t deter anything. Your hands are just as bloody. Sit down. https://t.co/ZqSCymkhZE

“We failed in Afghanistan because of wokeism” ignores pretty much everything we know about the war in Afghanistan.

Do not let my party pretent to be outraged by this. Both the GOP and Dems failed here. Time for Americans to put their country over their party. https://t.co/CVYBEH6zH9

It’s like a bunch of Republicans woke up from a 5 year coma and started worrying about incompetence today.

i like how right wing pundits have constructed a version of trump in their heads that never existed in reality. like he wasn’t a fumbling buffoon whose largely inept handlers had to fight in an attempt to ward off disaster.

Telling that the policy chief for the Republican Party leader’s critique of Biden admin is not that they are insufficient or incompetent in their effort to exfil our Afghan allies but that they are willing to help them out at all. Sick and depressing. https://t.co/oYVW8BCN4v

Donald J. Trump, April 19, 2021:

“I wish Joe Biden wouldn't use September 11 as the date to withdraw our troops from Afghanistan, for two reasons. First, we can and should get out earlier. Nineteen years is enough, in fact, far too much and way too long.” https://t.co/CTpuNmaghO
