Ask Trump and Pompeo what were their reasons for trusting the Taliban who Pompeo said was led by a "gentleman"
Biden made the same stupid decision they did.
You either have no clue as to facts, or just like making up stories to suit yourself. You sound very ignorant of the true facts. Keep your fingers away from the keyboard, you're embarrassing yourself......
QUESTION: Just a couple very brief things. One, on the – Afghanistan, have you seen – other than the signing of the agreement on Saturday, have you seen any evidence that the Taliban have, in fact, renounced, shunned, broken ties with al-Qaida? And then on the ICC part of it, are – do you expect now to issue travel bans like you did for the prosecutor on the appeals court judges?
And then secondly, off the beaten track a little bit, but you mentioned it – the WIPO decision. This was a victory for the administration over China. And I’m just wondering if you see that that hope for your attempts to stem Huawei’s – if this is a signal that you think that there’s a recognition of that, the dangers. Thank you.
SECRETARY POMPEO: Thanks, Matt. I can’t say much about what we’ve seen the Taliban do in the aftermath since – what are we now? – a handful of days on, five days out. But we have seen the senior Taliban leadership working diligently to reduce violence from previous levels during similar time periods. And so we still have confidence that the Taliban leadership is working to deliver on its commitments.
Don't quite understand the question....you want me to ask myself why Trump, Pompeo and Biden trusted the Taliban???
I can see why you might be confused. You were suggesting someone else ask (but not ask you) why, as you suggested, Trump and Pompeo trusted the Taliban. So I'm recommending you ask and then circle back around to us. Got it?
Sorry, you didn't like the facts. Would you like another fact: that army was close to 300 thousand men. Do you know how much weaponry it takes to arm them?

If you ask me they were all stupid to trust the Taliban....is that what you are looking for???
There is much more fallout. Remember POTUS has said we are staying longer without adequate military strength. This could and will imho get much worse.
The "thinking" behind this administrations understanding of the world is catastrophic....
It boggles the mind.
