The homepage of the website that cheered Trump to victory had five incredibly critical headlines. The accompanying articles might be even tougher. Here are key excerpts from the stories:
Article 1: “The speech was a disappointment to many who had supported his calls during the campaign to end expensive foreign intervention and nation-building.”
Article 2: “Using many of the same vague promises that previous presidents had used, including a repeat of [former US president Barack] Obama’s promise not to give a ‘blank check’ to Afghanistan and a pledge to finally get tough on Pakistan, it was a far cry from the ‘America First’ foreign policy he laid out in the months before Election Day.”
Article 3: “This isn’t about changing his perspective on the war. POTUS is a remarkably astute and stubborn individual. This was about the swamp getting to him.”
Article 4: “I voted for Donald Trump because he promised change. I may have made a mistake.”
Article 5: “In Donald Trump’s old gambling houses, no player doubled down on a six. In Donald Trump’s White House, the president looks to double down on his soft hand in Afghanistan. That’s a bad bet.”
