09/2020 #45 and his Sec State released 5000 taliban from prison as a condition during peace talks with the Taliban. Release gave 3 month cease fire. Art of the Deal. ALL smart people said NO!
Payment for deal going on this week
5000 went directly to work. Fortifying taliban fighters vs afghan army who was never gonna fight. #46 admin grossly underestimated situation. Guilty of that alone. ANY pullout would have met similar results
