@Trump gave the Taliban 14 months’ notice to prepare for this takeover, it was inevitable, he had already gutted the US presence

He got impatient because he was no longer in control
They got impatient after he was no longer around to hand it over to them on May 1st as promised

The @Trump deal with the Taliban (1), what was given away, whilst also unilaterally committing “its allies and the Coalition”

The @Trump deal with the Taliban (2), what was to be given by the Taliban……… if ever

The @Trump deal with the Taliban(3)

Oh and to really help the new (Taliban) government the US will give them financial assistance, let them get on with it and not interfere.

Great deal !

Even the #GQP have found it necessary to remove their previous statement from the web recently.

@Trump did everything he could to stop people getting out of Afghanistan

And now @mikepompeo thinks it’s all a big joke

@mikepompeo holds the final handover meeting of Afghanistan with the new leader on 9/12/20

@Trump made the process of handing over Afghanistan to the Taliban inevitable and irreversible.

He kept the new administration out of briefings over the transition period as long as possible

Who knows what the Taliban were offered then ?

@Trump then bragged that Biden couldn’t stop the Afghanistan process

Now @SenTedCruz , a fully paid up member of the @Trump cult, blocks all the State Department nominees at a critical time

@mikepompeo seems keen to rewrite history about #Afghanistan

Why would @POTUS "pay the Taliban"?

Oh yes @Trump and @mikepompeo promised them money once they took over!

It is clear from these IG reports that @Trump continued to handover #Afghanistan to the Taliban.
Knowingly giving everything away for nothing in return.
