FNC’s Juan Williams: Trump’s Afghanistan Trip Looked Like a ‘Photo-Op’
[BREITBART] On this week’s broadcast of "Fox News Sunday," panelist Juan Williams said President Donald Trump
...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons......
’s Thanksgiving trip to visit U.S. troops in Afghanistan looked like a "photo-op."
Sure did. And Bush's turkey when he visited the troops in Iraq was plastic. You could look it up.
Williams said, “The other part of the political spin is that with Trump, it seemed —and I think this is why you had the thought, I certainly had it, it looks like a photo op. Remember, he hadn't gone to visit any war zone until last year. He was criticized for it. This is his first visit to Afghanistan, our longest war, 2,000 plus Americans dead. He had no preparation. He e talked about a cease-fire, but his military people said we know nothing about any cease-fire with the Taliban, and the Taliban said they know nothing about a cease-fire.”

“He then talked about negotiations with the Taliban, and again, his own diplomats said we know nothing about any ongoing talks with the Taliban,” he added. “The president canceled talks with the Taliban last September if you’ll recall after they were engaged in a violent incident.”

#1 I used to call Juan the FauxNews village idiot, but these days he's on the right side of the bell curve there.

#4 Remember, he hadn't gone to visit any war zone until last year. He was criticized for it.

And when he does go to a war zone, we'll criticize him for it!

#7 So what if it was? It was still a 36 hour round trip. To a war zone. On a holiday away from home and family.

Even if it was just for a photo op it was more than you have ever done with your pathetic life, Juan.
