3 Just cut off the money already. We don’t need the airbase. It’s not humanitarian aid. The Taliban steals 95% of it and gives out the rest as if it’s coming from them.

4 Really love Trump, but this is really, really dumb! My guess is they will also want to sell back all the stuff we left behind that is broken, or worse, ask us to fix it as a condition of the deal. A spy base on China nuke weapons sites is unnecessary, all their stuff looks like the schematics in Tennessee and New Mexico anyway!
