Partial Truce Between U.S. And Taliban Set To Begin Ahead Of Broader Deal | Hallie Jackson | MSNBC
How is a “partial truce” different from a “partial war”?
It turns a complete loss into a partial loss.
@John Bender ….what? rofl
Flavius Stilicho. It’s not hun! All this really is will be seen and analysed, and understood to be yet another 10 second sound-bite to bolster Trump’s ego and distract us all from the mounting new evidence of the orange one’s corruption and lawlessness. It’s main target is to fire up his sleazy GOP and their dumb MAGAmorons!!!
None of that helps us now to get through this, but at the end of the day I’m slightly comforted to know that future history books will show my grandchildren that this whole sordid period was simply another gigantic, self imposed blip in American politics … like Nixon, Reagan and the Vietnam War to name but a few! History has never forgotten the Holocaust, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, European colonialism, Aparthied, Slavery and the Native American dispossessions… not to mention Vlad the Impaler, Emperor Nero and Caligula!!! History will remember this disgraceful time, when we gave our highest position to an illiterate TV show host, narcissistic faiiled businessman, corrupt criminal! Sadly History will condemn us all yet again!!!!
@Christina Cope 🙂 🙂 🙂 I get it… the MAGAmorons and Russian trolls won’t … but then I have a brain and can read! 🙂
@Christiane Carson I used to love to read science fiction and dystopian novels. I have to get back into the habit of reading.
Jesus you’ve been killing these guys for 20 years…
Wars take two sides, they are killing us, we are killing them. Once we are out, they will still be killing.
@Jelly Belly why were you there?
@Jelly Belly That means you launched a useless war and lost, buddy. You cannot even suppress a bunch of country bumpkins with long-rifles and gunpowder.
@Eco Geek – yes republicans did, your point?
@colm ivers – no more than you.
This is BS they just trying to get the US to pull out and then go back to fighting.
Gw, Cool so we should just stay there forever and give nothing a chance?
How about finishing the job, Bud? Trump is incapable.
Wigit so 19 years and three different presidents but 45 is incapable. Let’s stay forever
Let’s finish what we started, Matt.
I wonder if t’rump even knows where Afghanistan is on a map? 🤔🤣🤣
There are four known russian trolls so far replying to this one comment. Do you know which ones? #PutinsTrollArmyRealTime #NotAmericans
@Roger Wilco Liberal NPR “reporter” Mary Louise Kelly, pointed to Bangladesh when Secretary of state Mike Pompeo presented her with an unlabeled map of the world and challenged her to point to Ukraine… https://www.rollcall.com/2020/01/28/can-you-point-to-ukraine-it-may-be-a-while-before-you-get-your-chance/
@Duane Hall everyone who supports the President online is a “Russian Troll” according to you Democrat traitors…
about time they came to understanding…war is just making Russia and China stronger…
Trump is STRONGER than he was before 😆

Lol ” The terrorists win!” What a waste of treasure.
Good job Trump!!
Way to be a winner
How long do you want to keep going? NO really, are you saying that the US should live in that sovereign country forever?
Read the Afghanistan report or better yet talk to people who served in Afghanistan. You will see that it was a waste of trillions of dollars and thousands of causualties that spans three administrations. Want to impeach Trump? Here is a real issue. However, the lovebirds Obama and Bush have to accept blame as well.
@Robert Downes I totally agree, our military should not be asked to do this kind of work. Ever. If the military is called out to attack an enemy. The mission is clear. DESTROY no peace keeping, no nation building, no regime change. Just full destruction and then we go home. If we have to go back well so be it.
stinkel stinkel lmao if Obama would of done this you would be praising him and crying
@Robert Downes – well in all fairness Moscow Mitch openly said he wanted Obama to be a 1 term president and never worked with him, so let’s place blame where it is do, with Moscow mitch.
Trumps giving Afghanistan to Russia as a thank you. Ukraine is next. Syria has already been handed over
Hey Dumbkoff Russia tried and failed just like u and history to conquer Afghanistan due to the CIA backing bin Laden
Your lack of historical perspective is breathtaking. Did you not know that RUSSIA run away from Afghanistan with their tails between their legs. You really are a dumb TDS sufferer.
@Dave Schultz – *Ah, the great general, Davey the Dopey, speaks! How’s the fake War Hero shtick going there Davey? Still scamming the VA?*
*Bet you even bought some fake Hero medals at some yard sale, wear them around town to get free burgers at Rotten Ronnie’s!*
.
Have you ever seen a half of a billion man Army full throttle with one mission? I’m sure that’s a sight to see…
@scoldsore On Twitter
Current Location : Miami, FL – Earth
They’d probably only be a sight for a couple of days until the flaws in the Marxist supply chain happen and that army begins to starve and run out of ammunition…
Instead of Camp David, Trump should invite the Taliban to Mar-a-Lago to spend the weekend with him.
Why not send them to your house and tell them you’re a Jewish homosexual?
Feel that chill in the air?
EveryLiberalAttack MakesTrumpStronger What’s the problem snowflake you have a problem with Americans not liking Trump making deals with terrorists? It’s a policy Americans have we don’t negotiate, we don’t make deals with terrorists. Unfortunately your buddy Trump didn’t realize that when he published a book back in 1999 saying if he didn’t have it His way Osama bin Laden would hit the United States.
@EveryLiberalAttack MakesTrumpStronger – such a witty comeback, no substance just proof of your stupidity. Sad
So basically it’s going to be like the time Trump declared that Kim Jung Un had dismantled his nuclear program and NK was no longer a threat. Got it…
EveryLiberalAttack MakesTrumpStronger —-here you go… the only one that lies is your pos leader
Trump: “There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea.”

Thank you.👍
@Rojas-messilia what does that even mean is Bernie like preparation h or something
I thought the US doesn’t negotiate with terrorists!
That was another President and another time, G W Bush.
Talabans been casterated for quite some time this means nothing.
Hey… I thought the US didn’t negotiate with terrorists? What happened with that?
And start counting down to the fall of the USAn Empire from the moment they pretend to pull out. Empires go to Afghanistan to die, hence, the nickname The Graveyard of Empires. I still say that Trump’s legacy will be not his unbridled & utter corruption but the fall of the empire. I can’t wait how the GOP & FOX spin that one & blame it on Obama.
#BLUEWAVE NOW.
we set record & took congress in 2018; OUT DO THAT, FOR FUN & PROFIT.
اللہ اکبر اللہ اکبر اللہ اکبر
#WelcomeBackAfghanTaliban
Is it TRUE???
Pentagon version of Aladdin, the genie got out of the bottle
How much money we giving them USA tax money 😭
Lol weren’t they coming to the USA? Also congrats on losing ANOTHER war.
Make Taliban great again.. Thanks trump
