Retired Generals & Admirals Blame Trump for Afghan Withdrawal
Ten former Generals, Admirals, and the Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps issued a letter today blaming Donald Trump for the issues that led to the chaotic withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan.
The letter, which titled the group as 'National Security Leaders for America,' includes Admiral Steve Abbot who was a former senior advisor to George W. Bush. The letter begins by emphasizing Harris's support for NATO, Ukraine and our allies while noting that Trump's own for national security team has publicly stated that he is a danger to those alliances. It then goes on to note Trump's disparaging comments about wounded veterans and the Medal of Honor.
But the most pointed criticism of Trump in the letter is specific to the Afghan withdrawal, which Trump has made a centerpiece of his campaign and is likely to raise as an issue at the upcoming debate with Harris. 13 US service members were killed in a terrorist attack at Abbey Gate, which led to Trump exploiting one of their families to do a campaign photo op recently at Arlington National Cemetery.
These senior military officers place the blame for the withdrawal squarely on Trump, whose actions leading up to it created an impossible situation for his successor:
He repeatedly fails to take responsibility for his own role in putting service members in harm's way.
Without involving the Afghan government, he and his Administration negotiated a deal with the Taliban that freed 5,000 Taliban fighters and allowed them to return to the battlefield. Then, he left President Biden and Vice President Harris with no plans to execute a withdrawal, and with little time to do so. This chaotic approach severely hindered the Biden-Harris Administration's ability to execute the most orderly withdrawal possible and put our service members and our allies at risk.
Nevertheless, President Biden with the support of Vice President Harris ended America's longest war, oversaw the largest airlift in U.S. history, and brought our troops home.

The Harris Campaign released a new ad today to emphasize some of the points made in the letter. The ad includes quotes referenced in the letter from Trump's former national security team, including Mike Pence, Mark Esper, Mark Milley and John Bolton. The campaign is running the ad this week in Pennsylvania and on FoxNews in Palm Beach.
Vice President Harris on debating Trump: "He plays from this really old and tired playbook, right? There's no floor for him in terms of how low he will go and we should be prepared for that. We should be prepared for the fact that he is not burdened by telling the truth, and we should be prepared for the fact that he is probably going to speak a lot of untruth."

Trump's Dementia Fear: Babbling Ex-Prez 'Slipping Mentally and Making Less Sense' Insists His Biographer
Concerns Donald Trump is suffering from dementia have grown in recent weeks as the former president appears to be "slipping mentally" and "making less sense".
Trump’s Psychologist Niece Says ‘Donald Is Dementing’
“We deserve to be told that there’s a maniac on the loose,” said Mary Trump.

Trump gets criticized 24/7 on MSNBC, all the time on CNN, plenty in NYT, WaPo, etc. The Washington Post tracked something like 30,000 lies during his presidency and didn't bother tracking Biden's lies. (I don't blame them, to be clear.)
The idea that it's all "White guy good black guy bad" is an emotional argument, not a realistic or factual one.
This thread is the closest I have ever been to a cult meeting... I want the same outcome as y'all but I'm astounded at the QAnon-like dismissal of reality, fabricating enemies and only being willing to take in information that supports what you believe or want.
Elon is on it too
@playahaitian you see this shit ?
Wtf? How I miss this?
This dude is pure shit.
