Hmmm, I would ask Rep. Meeks how many Americans trust their own government?
Trust THEM to do whatever it takes to bring to our TV “shame upon Democracy” messaging from their puppeteers instructions
“I don’t trust the Taliban”. Wow. Groundbreaking intelligence here. This guy is a muppet.
He wins this year’s Profound Grasp of the Obvious trophy.
Takes the heat off Teflon
yeah he expected it all in May, Biden outfoxed him on that but forgot to tell the people the fan was about to get a big splat of yogurt and diarrhea so now the unthinking assume it has something to do with Biden decisions
Here’s a hypothetical question for you. Let’s say the Taliban sets up a legal system like that of a particular US ally. And rights for women. And rights for religious minorities, and human rights and rule of law in general. Would that make it okay to resume diplomatic ties with them?
What if the ally we’re using as reference here is Saudi Arabia? Are we still okay with it?
You don’t trust the Taliban? Why don’t you pass this on to Jomentia who hands them lists with the names of our allies, and makes them airport security and TSA screeners.
America has no business lecturing others about ethics
You may say America as a whole but it depends if you’re talking to a specific American
At least the democrats
Why should anyone trust them they don’t even trust each other?
The Biden administration is going to keep bragging about the amount of Afghan refugees they are evacuating without telling us how many Americans are still left behind. What a disgrace to have a president who doesn’t put Americans first.
Somebody doesn’t trust the Taliban, that’s big news. 😂
Trump was having the negotiation in Camp David with the Taliban. Hello, they would have killed him!
MSNBC wishing they would have turned off the comment section.
Nope. Expose yourself, all of your ignorance, and all of your bigotry. Of course, Fox turns off comments – they don’t want real Americans hijacking the “message”
Good analysis by Bolton
Biden does
The Vietnamese were not violent as the middle Easterns are.

Spending 2trill and countless lives to get one man and make Betsy devos brother rich is not a good use of tax payer money
You truly can’t trust the taliban. If we had the taliban, Afghanistan government, and our leaders in Doha last year this wouldn’t have happened
Well now, as if that is a revelation – ‘we don’t trust them, I don’t trust them.’ Not new. Vietnam was a completely different proposition than Afghanistan in a very different world.
