In 2019, TRUMP had planned to host “the major Taliban leaders” at Camp David ... right before 9/11! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Remember, the top Taliban leader and key negotiator was - and still is - Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar.

Public outcry followed.

The meeting was canceled.

@OccupyDemocrats @DailyMailUK @nytimes • On February 29, 2020, the TRUMP administration signed the #TalibanTrump agreement ...

Agreeing to a timetable for full removal of ALL American troops, facilitating the release of 5,000 Taliban prisoners, lifting sanctions

Mullah Ghani Baradar signed for the Taliban.

@OccupyDemocrats @DailyMailUK @nytimes • Remember when in March 2020 Trump told the press on the White House lawn the he had a good conversation with the Taliban leader?

And that he had “a very good relationship with the mullah?

That was Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar.

@OccupyDemocrats @DailyMailUK @nytimes @AP Today, after the Taliban has taken over Afghanistan, it is Mullah Abdul Ghani Barandar,

Taliban cofounder,

the man TRUMP had freed from prison,

the key Taliban negotiator,

the one who signed the #TalibanTrump agreement

the person positioned to lead the new government.
