Here Are All The Times Donald Trump Said The U.S. Should Get Out Of Afghanistan
On Monday night, President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. will continue fighting their longest war in history — the war in Afghanistan.
4,000 additional American troops will be deployed in Afghanistan very soon. Besides, Trump pointed out that "nation building" would stop. Instead, the military should focus on "hunting terrorists" (which practically means more escalation).
However, Trump didn't think this way all the time.
In fact, he said a couple of times that the U.S. should get out of Afghanistan and that the war cannot be won.
Mostly, Trump showed this attitude with his tweets before he became president.
The Intercept collected all the moments Trump stated his former views.
