We'll 💯NEVER FORGET, Vivek. Bush was warned of potential domestic attacks by bin Laden supporters over a month before 9/11. He received a secret briefing at his ranch in Crawford, Texas, on August 6, 2001, which mentioned that bin Laden's supporters planned an attack with explosives and wanted to hijack airplanes. Although he didn't know the specifics, the tragedy happened on his watch.
Don't forget Trump either. Astonishingly, he planned to host the Taliban at Camp David near the 9/11 anniversary, sidelining the Afghan government we spent trillions of dollars to train and arm. This undermined an ally we'd heavily invested in.
Trump's choices speak volumes. He released a key Taliban figure and 5,000 fighters, reduced U.S. troops to 2,500, and hastily set a May 2021 withdrawal date, all without a coherent exit strategy. This not only endangered lives but also compromised the next administration, handing another victory to Putin.
We must demand better. We deserve better than Trump and people like you who are afraid to criticize him.
