Trump immediately blames Joe Biden for the 13 deaths at Abbey Gate in Afghanistan. Trump forever forgets he caused the withdrawal problem by negotiating with the Taliban without the Afghan government involved. The withdrawal took longer than the timetable he created.#Trump #Afghanistan #AbbeyGate

MAGA had a meltdown when 13 servicemembers were killed at Abbey Gate trying to evacuate after Trump surrendered to the Taliban. Now the Republicans think it's funny that 13 servicemembers have been killed in the GOP's latest Never Ending War in the Middle East. http://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-…

Hey MAGA, remember when Donald Trump freed 5000 Taliban without even speaking to the Afghani government – then the Taliban took over the Afghani government? Then he struck a deal to get out of there and blamed Joe Biden for the Chaos he left behind, I do!

Remember when Trump released 5000 Taliban and one of them is now President of Afghanistan?
