IMO people are confusing what he said before he was a candidate. I would think if as a candidate he promised to withdraw troops from Afghanistan, it would be easy to find.

None of the articles I’ve been reading quote such a promise from his campaign but all cite statements he made before he was a candidate.

Trump is a “religion of peace coddler” ??? Did you lose your talking points - or your mind?

McMaster, blah-blah-blah ... Did you intend an argument in that mess? No, I didn’t think so.

Psst - You best hurry along - I here Mike Cernovich calling all moonbats back to his Twitter den!

Hey, dipwad, did you forget that the approval of CONGRESS is required to get these things done?

Did you also forget that our so-called Republican majorities, in BOTH effing houses, has failed to sign on to the REPUBLICAN president’s agenda?

Well, of course you didn’t ... and thus we know your intentions in posting this drivel are less than honorable.

For those critical, just imagine what Hillary's speech would have been like tonight.

How quickly people forget!

They forget the horror of the last eight years. They forget what could be going on now.

Finally, thank God, we have a President that is serving our country.

No kidding.

I came here looking for rally updates, and all I see is infighting.

"IMO people are confusing what he said before he was a candidate."

Exactly. One article I read had comments from him about Afghanistan from 2011 and 2013.

Better put your bifocals on, and re-check the thread title.

Just to put this ROE crap to bed; The Soviets devolved to the point of putting explosives into teddy bears so that the future generation of Afghans would be destroyed; many toddlers died btw. Hint: that vexation, nor fighting to annihilate the enemy did not work.

The will to fight on as well as points of refuge insulated the Mujahideen/Taliban (My how modern day US foreign policy “know-it-alls shoot themselves in the foot) during the Soviet invasion.

At least the Soviets understood that if you kill a man you had better kill his son too or else the son will come after you when he is of age. The Honor Code.

True, however that tactic did not kill the will to fight on by the future generation that was left. Also there was plenty of refuge for future generations to continue the fight, which is the underlining problem (Will not refuge, where there is will, there “will” always be a way).
