As this tweet by “Anonymous” shows, the real reason nevertrumpers hate Trump is because they love wars - especially our endless Mideast wars that Bush started and Obama/Hillary/McCain/Romney kept going.

For Nevertrumpers , it’s all about the wars. They’re pro-war, ergo they’re anti-Trump

So, 19 years isn’t long enough?

Hmm. That’s funny, we were just remarking yesterday how there have been no terrorist attacks since Trump’s been in office.

If we leave Afghanistan, there will be a persistent terror threat to America.
If we stay in Afghanistan, there will be a persistent terror threat to America.

Not much difference. So I’ll go with the first option in order to save American lives and treasure.

I doubt this twerp would ever serve in the military. He seems like a ladyboy.

“persistent terror threat” indicates we need more stringent border control and continued travel bans from terrorist countries.

Sigh. Read some history. No foreign nation stays in Afghanistan very long. We’ve stayed longer than most. Getting into Afghanistan is nearly aways much easier than getting out. We aren’t going to change them and we aren’t going to civilize them either. All that we gain by staying there is losing more American lives. Once again, Trump is right.

I agree 100%! If we haven’t straightened that mess out by now, then we never will. Enough is enough!

Per Wikipedia: Taylor worked for Dick Cheney early on. After he left HS he went to work for Google and is currently on leave from them working for the Biden campaign.

No military service listed in his bio.

Yeah, I fully expect Afghanistan to pull a D-Day type invasion on us any moment now. I assume their over 5,000 ships like we, the Brits and our allies are sailing right now around the horn of Africa and into the South Atlantic, headed for the shores of Florida. Yup, I expect their helpers from Yemen and Sudan have added three motor boats and a canoe each to the flotilla!

The principal terrorist threat to America in Afghanistan was the terrorist camps supporting al Qaeda, now long gone. After 19 years of nation building the U.S. has managed to turn a country torn by tribal war into a country torn by tribal war. Time to go.

If the intel agencies and the brass can’t show a coherent strategy to win and leave other than the same old waste of blood and treasure screw them! They’ve had 20 years and still the same crap.

We went into Afghanistan to punish Al-quadi, the Taliban, kill bin laden and disrupt terrorist training camps-mission accomplished!!! We listened to that idiot Colin Powell and his nation building lunacy instead. If the terrorist start up again, air strikes and targeted raids to kill them. Declare victory and bring the boys home. The joint chiefs, intel agencies and military industry complex will gladly kill GI’s for decades to keep the $ flowing. The intel agencies deserve to be drawn and quartered for their lies and failures!!!

The persistent terror threat to America is Antifa/BLM/Soros/CCP.

Trump being the “Peace President” really threw them for a loop. They don’t know what to do in response.

Trump is right. Speaking as someone who was there in 2007, whose had kids follow him there, and who doesn’t want his GRANDKIDS to follow him there.....
