Beware of stupid people and people pretending to be stupid for effect...
Right now, Biden is more concerned with salvaging his popularity than with the disaster his incompetence unleashed. And his narrative janitors are doing their best to mop up the blood he's spilled...
1/
If you think "But Trump invited the bad guys to negotiate at Camp David" or "Trump's deal freed a bunch of prisoners" are some sort of gotcha that put this on Trump, you're dumb or you think your followers are... 2/
There are three ways a war ends. Just three. No more, no less. Three.
1 - Win
2 - Negotiate a peace
3- Lose
3/
We've taken Win off the table. Neither Trump nor Biden nor anyone else is willing to take the time, spend money, and spill the blood to win this war. 4/
To win would require a combination of the Boer War tactic of emptying the country side with the Roman tactic of pretty much killing everyone else. We're just not going to do that, so we won't win against tribesmen who just will not give up. 5/
The next option was negotiate a deal. Trump did that. When you negotiate, you negotiate, so asking them to visit Camp David is hardly some shocking concession. And when wars end with a deal, prisoners go free. What, you think any deal would keep them locked up forever? 6/
Trump made a deal. It called for the Taliban to power share and had us withdraw most forces in May. The Taliban broke the deal. They attacked. But Biden did nothing, except lengthen the withdrawal time. He did not enforce the deal. 7/
Biden also took longer to leave than Trump would have, assuming the ridiculous scenario that Trump would continue with the treaty while the Taliban broke their part and not retaliate. So Biden had MORE time to plan and execute a smooth departure. Yet he didn't. 8/
The last alternative is to lose. Biden chose that option. And so did every jerk who complains that Trump negotiated. Win, negotiate or lose. Pick one. If you disqualify negotiating, and you won't win, that leaves losing. If you're willing to lose, own it, loser. 9/
So, their argument, to the extent that it is an argument and not a cheesy ploy to distract from Biden's disgraceful, disastrous failure, is that Trump tried to negotiate a peace, and the Taliban broke the deal, and so Biden had no choice but to lose. Huh? 10/
Baloney. When you hear dumb/dishonest people trying to confuse the strategy (leave Afghanistan) with the tactics (Trump via enforcing the deal, Biden via cutting and running), you know you're being played or in the presence of an idiot. Maybe both. 11/End
Don’t be afraid of the. My new @townhallcom column says “Take the fight to them!”
“The Washington Post has not yet apologized for its false insinuations against me, which have resulted only in it embarrassing itself and validating me as a Massively Influential Conservative Influencer™. I don’t expect them to take responsibility; I fully understand that my enemy is too proud of the legacy it survives on, like maggots feeding on a corpse, ever to admit it was wrong to a trio of outlaw media guys. But we’ll still be here when Jeff Bezos finally pulls the plug on this terminal patient.
The fact is, this sordid story shows us the nature of, and how to fight, the regime media. That’s what our job is, at the end of the day. Almost 20 years ago, a guy named Andrew Breitbart came on the scene and showed us that these punks who think they are Mike Tyson have glass jaws. ”
You Can Fight Back Against the Regime Media ...
