President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that he was cancelled a secret meeting the Taliban.
“Unbeknownst to almost everyone, the major Taliban leaders and, separately, the President of Afghanistan, were going to secretly meet with me at Camp David on Sunday,” Trump tweeted.
According to the President, the terrorist organization was scheduled to arrive on Saturday night.
Unbeknownst to almost everyone, the major Taliban leaders and, separately, the President of Afghanistan, were going to secretly meet with me at Camp David on Sunday. They were coming to the United States tonight. Unfortunately, in order to build false leverage, they admitted to..

Trump said he “immediate cancelled the meeting” when the Taliban claimed responsibility for a bombing in Kabul, Afghanistan that killed 12 people, including a U.S. soldier.
“If they cannot agree to a ceasefire during these very important peace talks, and would even kill 12 innocent people, then they probably don’t have the power to negotiate a meaningful agreement anyway,” Trump tweeted.
….only made it worse! If they cannot agree to a ceasefire during these very important peace talks, and would even kill 12 innocent people, then they probably don’t have the power to negotiate a meaningful agreement anyway. How many more decades are they willing to fight?

Thread.
It was amazing.
I took pictures, but they didn’t come out.
I don’t believe him. There was no meeting scheduled. He’s a liar.
So, it appears that negotiations weren’t really going anywhere, and certainly not a meaningful meeting at Camp David today (or probably at all). This is all about Trump once again trying to look tough.
Dear DJT,
Please join the Taliban and become their commander in terrorism. Then maybe we can get rid of you.
He’s changed a lot hasn’t he ?
