He had hundreds of hard core Taliban released for a peace deal which they would never honor. He basically freed a large group of veteran Taliban fighters who would go on to fight to seize Afghanistan. It was always obvious.
Another instance in which the media gave Trump a pass.

Gitmo was like that. Still is to a smaller scale. Im not a proponent of keeping people in cages without their day in court.

Putin, Kim Jong Crazy, the Taliban, Mohammed Bone Saw, Satan, et cetera.
