This whole thing is surreal... Concocting such fantasies goes hand in glove with pandering to lunatic base of the Democrat party. This is no different than Merrick Garland accusing school board critics of being "domestic terrorists".

But, but, Bye-Done assured me that the Taliban were reasonable men who would help us! All those Americans killed by the Taliban in the past, well, that was just a misunderstanding. C’mon, man. /s

Umm, expecting the Taliban to reign in any sort of extremism is like expecting a heroin addict help you curb meth.

As long as the extremism and violence all happens inside Afghanistan, who cares? If Joe and company want to start that occupation again, they can start by sending the Cheneys to wage the war. After, of course, they take special sniper-bullet-dodging courses from Hillary.

As opposed to “The Biden White House.” You think they would have worked with a Trump White House?

And you can bet they also want revenge.
They have been in the "Revenge" mode since the 6th century. Old news.

Now hang on - The Most Popular President In History told us that these guys were businesslike and reasonable. Maybe we should just send them more money.

ISIS is already attacking the Taliban.

"Taliban say they won't work with US to contain extremism in Afghanistan" Shocking!
Who could have possibly imagined that this would happen?
Snicker...

Maybe if Joe says “pretty please,” they’ll come around.

Did the US government really ask the Taliban to help “contain extremism”? Clown world.

Joe told the Taliban guys
“We handled our border crisis and it’s a thing of the past with a pathway to citizenship, we stopped the temporary inflation from a few months ago, we handled the peaceful and measured exit of people who wanted to leave Afghanistan as if it were just a busy holiday weekend at one of our airports and we convinced people to volunteer for vaccinations so now Covid is a thing of the past in the US. So work with us now in your country.”
Taliban: “Uh, no thanks, pal. We’ll go it alone.”
