About damn time this got its own thread.
As I've posted elsewhere, Breitbart is fucking pissed. They've written no fewer than five stories about it in the last 24, accusing him of breaking campaign promises. And, since this is Bannon we're talking about here PLUS of course all of Trump's speeches and tweets, that such an assertion is correct.Oh sure, people like @
CostinR will say things like "he never once said during the campaign we should get out of Afghanistan" which is kinda funny, but, let's face it, Trump's broken so many campaign promises, saying that this is one of them, the odds are pretty good even if you knew NOTHING about the situation.

There is that, even if the plan forwarded was incredibly vague, mentioned no specific actions or numbers at all, and at times contradicted itself. Basically every news outlet said he was stepping back and letting his military handle it (Trump even used the words "micromanage" to defend why the Commander in Chief shouldn't be involved in a war zone). Of course,
a) Trump said he knew more than the generals about fighting ISIS. He either lied, or he's choosing of COURSE he lied.
b) It's still a broken promise. Even Mike Pence said so.
