There are no foreign leaders at Camp David (it has to be public knowledge)


No, no it doesn't. Again, we have no idea what's going on, but equating Camp David with a vacation is simply wrong.

That was made abundantly clear when the administration went radio silent for over three days while Afghanistan collapsed.

This is a very interesting play-by-play Twitter thread from Ajmal Ahmady, Economic Advisor to Ghani, from earlier today:

quote:

1/The collapse of the Government in Afghanistan this past week was so swift and complete - it was disorienting and difficult to comprehend.

This is how the events seemed to proceed from my perspective as Central Bank Governor.


There are many tweets in the thread, but it is worth the time to read and highlights the chaos of all involved over the past few weeks.

Just imagine how frightened she must be. The Taliban is going to target her loved ones remaining over there.

When everyone in the world, including traditional media lapdogs, is talking about and commenting how weak your President and his Administration is, we have a pretty good idea what is going on.

They'll just circle back around to it when they get done with their vacation.

Who cares if US citizens die. It's vacation August baw!

Yes it does. I have been involved with such meetings during the first term of W Bush's presidency. There are public disclosure requirements for visits to Camp David.

When W needed an "off the books" meet it happened elsewhere.

If by "long weekend vacation" you actually mean a two week vacation (the actual words used by his press secretary), then you're right.
