Nikki Haley Condemns Biden's Taliban Negotiation, Ignores Trump Did It Too

Nikki Haley Condemns Biden's Taliban Negotiation, Ignores Trump Did It Too

Luckily, many Twitter users were happy to remind her that the Republicans have done the same thing she's accusing the Democrats of doing.

"SNIP.....

Nikki Haley insulted the intelligence of her fellow Americans on Wednesday and once again found herself soaking in her own hypocrisy.

On Wednesday, the former ambassador to the United Nations under then-President Donald Trump attacked the Biden administration’s withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan ― and especially, the administration negotiations with the Taliban, which Haley compared to “dealing with the devil.”

Granted, negotiating with a terrorist organization has bad optics ― which is why the Trump administration was also criticized when it decided to invite Taliban leaders to meet with the president at Camp David just days before the 18th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

Haley either forgot that or decided to ignore it when she attempted to own those danged libs with her tough-talking tweet.

......SNIP"

I recall when she once held the attention of people regardless of their political side.

How do you turn so far away from the resonable person you were once known as?
And in such a hellacious direction no less.

ass kissers are out in force trying to smear President Biden, and are hoping trump will take them under his wing and "guide" them to new positions of power in their future.

Too bad it won't work.

The former guy attacked a POW, a Gold Star family & a military widow.
Called the fallen heroes of war “suckers & losers”.
Let Putin put bounties on the heads of our soldiers.
Republicans said nothing.
But now, now they’re outraged on behalf of our veterans.
Of course they are.
