      Ah yes, Trump who abandoned the Kurds after they proved themselves to be our most stalwart allies against ISIS and hosted the Taliban at Camp David while snubbing the Afghan government because he always planned to hand it all back over to the Taliban.

        I mean, the taliban was always going to take over. I can’t feel aggrieved over an eventuality and someone acting on its presumption. The government of Afghanistan was like three drunk gentlemen and a thousand scarecrows.

      I don’t know, IMO that’s just par for Trump’s course. The people eating pets part though… No, wait, that’s also par for the course here. Honestly I think he’s run out of lows to sink to; it’s at the point where everything is a lateral move for him. I think the only way he could sink lower is if he actually pulled out a gun and shot somebody.
