Peter Baker et al--how trmp's secret Taliban talks came together and fell through.

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/08/world/asia/afghanistan-trump-camp-david-taliban.html

Scary to think only rivalry between pompeo and bolton prevented Taliban from coming to Camp David.

Also trmp wanted Afghan govt in it too.

Shows ineptitude of so-called deal maker--always going for his own ego-unhinged.

No wonder #Impeach and #TalibanTrump trended yesterday.

Most troubling, the American people! were not notified till after the fact, and then only in trump's tweet storms.

If this is a distraction fr T's perpetual fall in polls, it is a VERY BAD ONE.
