The Wall Street Journal’s editorial board, usually friendly to President Donald Trump, came out swinging Friday morning, publishing an editorial skewering Trump’s statements on Afghanistan at Wednesday’s Cabinet meeting.
They call Trump’s mockery of other nations who fought alongside American troops in Afghanistan “slander,” noting the number of soldiers who died in the effort from the UK alone.
The board then targets Trump’s support of the Soviet Union’s presence in the country in the ’80s when he said they were “right to be there.”
“Right to be there?” the board writes with indignation. “We cannot recall a more absurd misstatement of history by an American President. The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan with three divisions in December 1979 to prop up a fellow communist government.”
I swear, the press needs to have a photo of Putin holding Donald’s hand as he forms the words that go in his speeches before they can connect the dots.
We’ve been wondering for more than two years what it would take for the trumpians to stop kissing the Pumpkin Traitors’ ass.
When you lose the RWNJ at the WSJ editorial board, you’re doomed.
This ain’t good for President Nimrod. The WSJ op-ed section is like Fox and Friends for people who can read.
He can’t go back.
But he can go down.
Wait a few minutes. He’ll be along to best it shortly.
