For those scratching their heads on this, it isn’t hard. Let’s break down what happened here piece by piece.
First, Trump thought it was a good idea to invite evil Taliban leaders to the US the week of 9/11 in SECRET because he knew it would look TERRIBLE unless he got a deal… https://t.co/wthN2riX3r

Then, to save face and do PR damage control for what surely would have leaked and been a disaster headline for the President around a failed peace talk—he’s now tweeting out this nonsense that it was some brilliant idea of his to cancel the talks…

The reality is, this was a MAJOR blunder by the White House, first and foremost, for inviting the Taliban to US soil in the first place—much less Camp David. They aided and still defend the 9/11 attacks. They are evil and don’t deserve the dignity Trump bestowed on them.

So, don’t let Republicans write this one up as “Oh wow—great decision to cancel those talks, Mr. President! You sure know how to play tough when they kill one of our soldiers! Good goin’!”
That’s pathetic. Have them answer the real question—and if they don’t, vote them out.

Could someone let the “intelligence officer” know this photograph is from 1983 and the Taliban were not formed until 1994. pic.twitter.com/lgH5VZnsHi

Republicans are praising Trump for cancelling the talks *he* set up with a group of people who use terror and medieval savagery as their only mode of governance.

The same kind that used 12y/o boys to plant bombs that took my legs. The same kind that dipped a baby waist deep in boiling water… with all due respect, Mr. President, we’ve known who they are for 20yrs and if they come here it better be to stand trial and die not sip wine lie. https://t.co/c9XwCqmoex

This literally makes me sick for my country & viscerally pissed off. I’m at a loss for words. My heart aches for every family who forever lost loved ones on September 11, thanks to the evil of Taliban. Anyone who flies their banner doesn’t deserve to set foot on US soil—ever.

Holy cow, US Air Force fuel purchases at Prestwick Airport started in October 2017 and have totaled $17.2 million, not the $11 million previously reported, according to @nytimes https://t.co/ZIHCT5W9nb

I confess I did NOT have invite-Taliban-to-Camp-David-pre-9/11 to distract from using-military-flights-to-prop-up-failing-Scotland-property to distract from Hurricane-Dorian-Alabama-Sharpiegate on my Trump Scandal Bingo Card. Anyone else?

Perhaps the irony is not in the hypocrisy, but in the fervent disregard for any resemblance of consistency at any level. https://t.co/8KBMEjWnlA

The good news — no meeting with the Taliban at Camp David.
The bad news — there was going to be a meeting with the Taliban at Camp David.
The worst news — he seems to be just now learning about their pure evil and malign intentions. https://t.co/uwtyVrLeH2

In fairness, Trump cancelled the meeting with the Taliban the moment he found out they were the Taliban.

Trump canceled a meeting with Denmark because he was upset at how they rebuffed his idea to sell Greenland to the USA, but actually invited the leaders of the Taliban to meet with him at Camp David just days before 9/11?
Just think about how insane that is.

This really sticks in my craw — more than most things, for some reason. "Every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear" is not supposed to apply to the American president. This is just bonkers, and un-American. https://t.co/pnR4lpat1y
