What trump is doing is retreating not declaring victory. The peace offerings to Afghanistan and earlier Syria are and were not from positions of strength but from positions of weakness that trump could not escape. His predecessors were not inclined to retreat from the stalemates that were because a greater good was at stake but with the cowardly trump in control we have given away our blood and treasure earned advantages for some semblance of chest thumping. Well what takes place after our troops withdraw from Afghanistan will be eerily similar to what is happening in Syria.
Where we cast aside our long time allies for a political stunt. Where we condemned to death those freedom fighters who thought we were in it to win with them. Where the tyrants of the day are now the real chest thumpers and proclaimers of victory. It is in defeat that trump sees himself winning. When the dust settles on these retreats the victors will have established their strongholds again in time to subject their people to more authoritarian and brutal rule. The idea that democracy won out is absurd, and actually defeat for democracy is the exposed trumpian agenda. Why would the wannabe dictator trump want to spread democracy when he is trying so desperately to defeat it at home?
The long held belief that our democracy was the best form of government ever created has now been quashed by trump and his republican sycophants. Not only here at home but now overseas where we as a nation in the past held that cruel and brutish regimes did not deserve to exist if we could help put them down. Not anymore. Now we Americans are accomplices to defeatism as a political stunt to try to win votes from the stupid among us. The problem is that not many are going to fall for this agenda of trump and all he is doing is weakening the rights of all individuals to have the right to the pursuit of happiness.
