So, where’s the famous thirty-day plan to defeat ISIS that he boasted about? It’s almost like he wasn’t telling the truth on the campaign trail!

Trump has repudiated every single thing he has tweeted in the last 8 years condemning Obama policy on Afghanistan, and all Trump offers by way of apology is that things are “different when you’re president.”

I guess that would include the decisions made by Obama, who was a legitimate and appreciated President by the majority of sentient people despite your efforts to undermine him at every turn. I’d have to say, your apology rings a tad hollow, you repugnant piece of shit.

I would say we should send all our militia folks over there. But honestly, the Afghani people do not deserve that much hate.

It wasn’t a clear strategy, it was a pep rally of promises. Trump always makes a lot of promises.

I feel betrayed. I feel used. I feel like I’ve been abused. I really believed him when he said he had a top secret plan based on knowing more than the generals. What a fool I was. I guess I’ll just go back to my soaps. I know where I stand with my soaps.

Does anyone actually know what Trump said? (Other than it is all about him and he was dealt a very bad hand.).

At the beginning of the speech it seemed there was some hope for a change in rhetoric, unfortunately it was all me, I and how bad past leadership was. Also it seems all of " South Asia " is now fair game to mess with.

He used the soldiers assembled like props at a TV show. It was offensive.

You know, as awful as he gets, if there’s one small thing I wish Trump would have changed by now, it would be phrasing. “My original instinct was to pull out” is cringeworthy enough without coming from the man who also gave us “Grab them by the pussy.”

He just committed more soldiers to die in Afghanistan and then he stood on stage waiting for applause. Christ, what an a**hole.

“A hasty withdrawal…”

Could he mean when Iraq kicked us out?

"But all my life I’ve heard that decisions are much different when you sit behind the desk in the Oval Office.”

Like decisions on what to tweet and how to tweet.
