In today’s issue: Afghanistan.

Trump made a speech on Monday night about his plan for US military involvement in Afghanistan.

Here’s what you need to know:

After spending years criticizing this 16 year war, he indicated that America will be even more deeply involved in Afghanistan with even more troops required.

His plan lacked detail or concrete commitments. He didn’t even say how many more troops will be required.

He didn’t commit to a timeline for withdrawal, either. All he said?

#Winning

If there is a compelling case to be made for deepening the United States military involvement in Afghanistan, Trump did not make it in his speech Monday night.

Too much is up in the air for the American people to trust this non-plan. For one, there isn’t a confirmed US Ambassador to Afghanistan…

…who’s gonna pay? What does winning look like?

Trump contradicted himself in many ways last night. Peep the 2013 tweet.

This too. Although, the travel ban.

And it’s pretty hard to trust a guy after 1,000+ lies!

There’s also this:

Trump may have been convinced to remain in Afghanistan because of a picture of Afgan women in miniskirts.

Want more detail? Short recap of the situation (h/t ABC News):

So when can we expect troops to be deployed? ASAP.

Round and round we go.

In other news, Trump ecstasy pills were being distributed in Germany. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
