CNN national security analyst embarrasses herself trying to dunk on Trump over Taliban comment

CNN national security analyst Juliette Kayyem, a lecturer at the Harvard Kennedy School, was among the droves of liberals who rushed to social media this week to ridicule former President Donald Trump over factual claims he made in Tuesday's debate.

Kayyem's experience working in the Obama administration and serving as a member of the National Commission on Terrorism failed to prepare her for the task of dunking on Trump. She suggested that Trump's accurate identification of a founding member of the Taliban present for the U.S.-Taliban peace talks in Doha was a clear indication of his "racism and senility."

Having taken her shot and missed, the CNN analyst is now facing widespread ridicule.

What Kayyem said The CNN analyst wrote on X, "It's such a minor point but I cannot stop thinking that Trump casually calling the head of Taliban 'Abdul' is a perfect mix of his ignorance, racism and senility in just a single word."

'You cannot be this stupid.'

It appears Kayyem suffered the same short-term memory loss as MSNBC's Chris Hayes, who concluded that Trump "invented a head of the Taliban named Abdul."

"It's not the name of the head of the Taliban," continued Hayes. "Just to be clear, he just like randomly named him."

It’s not like it isn’t a story that has been out there, or about people which she could not be expected to know.

People who think themselves the smartest in the room are usually dumb as a bag of hammers.

Send her an email reminder— the Co-founder of the Taliban who was present at the Doha meetings with Trump, representing the Taliban was:

ABDUL Ghani Baradar.

Email Juliette Kayyem a reminder of how stupid she is NOT to know this, expert as she says she is.

This “brilliant” cnn analyst teaches at JFK school of Govt. Maybe she should speak to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, about his support of President Trump.

In the meantime, here is an X post from this idiot woman, on her X page, about Trump being shot— “like with a bullet”. Really quite a stupid emotioned up biotch frankly- not smart at all and cannot zip it for any kind of... BALANCE!

Concern Karen and MORON-JULY 25th X @juliettekayyem:

“Ive waited a while to say this but the burden is now on Trump to show he was shot. I can condemn the assassination and still demand truth, especially since Trump is now politicizing taking a bullet. Wray has now opened the door; this is not a conspiracy theory. Wray, known for exact phrasing and being careful, didn’t say this on accident. He is begging us to ask.”

Juliette Kayyem, it's stupid people who were given their degrees that make this nation the laughing stock it has become. Harvard should be embarrassed that it gave you a degree that you clearly didn't deserve. In fact, both of you should be ashamed, but then nothing shames the likes of idiots like you & Chris Hayes.

But thanks for allowing me to enjoy the Karma that exposed you as the idiot you actually are, you ugly bimbo.

They are called liberals.

They are all addicted to acceptance over suvival.
