"“They wouldn’t let us win.”.......your Dad was right. And now we are left with the least great General, Army Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

FTA: U.S. Envoy Zalmay Khalilzad traveled to Doha, Qatar on Tuesday, where the Taliban has a political office established, to "help formulate a joint international response to the rapidly deteriorating situation in Afghanistan," according to the State Department.

The trip was meant to urge the Taliban to put an end to their military offensive and look toward a political settlement, which the State Department said is "the only path to stability and development in Afghanistan."

Heard similar BS on FNC last night. Taliban's going for it all and this is so much wishful thinking crap. They'll take Kabul within a week.

You know the Taliban will be video taping the people lined up at the embassy trying to get out.

And it will be in HD.

I am not sure how this could haven avoided. But thanks George. You screwed up. A lot.
