I talked about this throughout my campaign. I’m sickened by the thought that we’d make a deal with the Taliban that has no provisions regarding Afghani women. It’s a moral outrage.

American women should be a moral force, beginning with standing for the rights of women & children everywhere. Taliban’s brutality towards women was an issue even before 9/11; we mustn’t let up our vigilance regarding their protection in any way possible.mailchi.mp/marianne2020/wome…

I agree Marianne. It would be a moral outrage. No deal should be made regarding the U.S. /Taliban deal without first hearing from the Afghani women. May their voices be heard.

Andrea Mitchell's family isn't likely over there dying for freedoms that the Afghans won't fight for. After 19 years leaving is WAY overdue. Bravo Trump.

They made a deal with the devil...
Replying to @marwilliamson
It is. However, to date, the only solution to that is what amounts to a permanent occupation. Unless, you can get people to negotiate their cultural and religious beliefs. Good luck with that.

Donald Trump does not value women & picks staff that share his views. He has many predators in his inner circle

There’s zero surprise here. He is the complete opposite of a great deal maker. Women’s rights and safety isn’t even on the radar with this jackass.
Replying to @marwilliamson
I agree, but how would we enforce that? Once we leave they'll go back 7th century living and infighting among each other.

Thank you for talking about this.
