What a great President! What other President would have taken the time to visit his troops on Thanksgiving?

BAGRAM AIR FIELD, Afghanistan — President Donald Trump made a surprise trip to Afghanistan on Thanksgiving to rally U.S. troops involved in the nearly two-decade-old war effort.

It was his first visit to the country, and the president used the opportunity to announce the restart of peace negotiations with the Taliban, the insurgent force the U.S. originally invaded Afghanistan to oust. Trump made the announcement during a meeting with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani, saying he believes the Taliban wants a ceasefire.

Pretty much all of them.

But I give Trump credit for going, the troops love it when the CIC does this, no matter who the CIC is.

The best gift to the troops in Afghanistan would be to pull them the hell out of there.

Instead we keep them there while we have negotiations with a terrorist organization, because they can be trusted to keep their word!

Hillary once visited the troops, and you could see in their faces that the troops didn't want her there.

Probably, Bush II should have never have put them there in the first place.
