Trump says Biden turned victory into defeat
Trump was greeted with warmth by the New York first responders. The Taliban knew it would be a mistake to kill Americans while Trump was trying to end the war. He had a history of attacking those who attacked Americans from ISIS to Solamani....
“He turned victory into a total embarrassment; I say the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country,” Trump said.
The former president said he watched some of the other speeches from 9/11 but noted that no one was talking about Biden’s failure.
“They’re trying to do speeches without mentioning what happened over the last two weeks, and that’s a very hard thing to do,” Trump said.
He accused Biden of surrendering to the Taliban in the war for political reasons.
“I think he wanted to run because he wanted to look good today,” he said, pointing to the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
Trump said he could not understand why Biden pulled the military out of Afghanistan before getting all Americans out of the country.
“We surrendered, and we can’t let that happen,” he said.
Trump expressed his sadness for the 13 American servicemembers who were killed by twin suicide bombings outside the airport in Kabul.
“Those 13 warriors who were killed, I spoke to some of those parents; they will never be the same,” he said.
Trump recalled that when he was president, he negotiated with the Taliban, noting that if any Americans were killed, he responded with strength.
“From that day on, we didn’t have one soldier killed,” he said. “And we could have taken two, three years to get out, or we could have taken one month. Nobody would have been killed, and we would have had 100 percent of our equipment.”
