Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign is rehashing former President Donald Trump’s 2020 deal with the Taliban, as the Republican nominee has repeatedly criticized her for the chaotic withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan during President Biden’s first year in office.

    • Trump negotiated with terrorists, while excluding the democratically elected government of Afghanistan (setting an exit date).
    • Trump released thousands of Taliban fighters.
    • Trump closed bases and airbases in Afghanistan and drew down the forces to a level that could never defend themselves if push came to shove.

    He then left office with Biden holding the bag. Biden had no choice but have his people gtfo. Because the Taliban outnumbered the US troops and there was no air support possible any more. The Taliban would have massacred the remaining Americans.

    Topical, given Russian ties to the Taliban currently in the headlines.

    Can voters connect the dots?

    I really hope the democrats push his history of rape. It is mind boggling that anyone supports an unabashed woman hating rapist.

      Once you realize a majority of the GOP electorate doesn’t view women as people, their lack of aversion to a rapist makes a little more sense.
