Unbeknownst to almost everyone, the major Taliban leaders and, separately, the President of Afghanistan, were going to secretly meet with me at Camp David on Sunday. They were coming to the United States tonight. Unfortunately, in order to build false leverage, they admitted to..

....an attack in Kabul that killed one of our great great soldiers, and 11 other people. I immediately cancelled the meeting and called off peace negotiations. What kind of people would kill so many in order to seemingly strengthen their bargaining position? They didn’t, they....

....only made it worse! If they cannot agree to a ceasefire during these very important peace talks, and would even kill 12 innocent people, then they probably don’t have the power to negotiate a meaningful agreement anyway. How many more decades are they willing to fight?

1. Trump's tweet deserves a...

Cool story, Bro.

[CDerekGo]

2. I'm guessing

This meeting falls under same category as the phone call he received from China while he was attending G7 meeting?

3. Suuure they were.

And I was going to meet with the Dalai Lama and the Bolshoi Ballet.

15. Really? That's so cool!

Yeah, I'm gullible. I'll believe your story, but this one from Orange Foolius? No WAY!

5. "How can we trust them if we don't think they'll lie?"

[madaboutharry]

6. This sounds absolutely crazy.

Major Taliban leaders secretly going to Camp David? Is this even believable? I think not. And if it is by some chance the truth, why is he announcing it on twitter.

I think that this is something he made up and tweeted so that he would look like other presidents, I am thinking of Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton, who were involved in major peace negotiations.

I think this story is a lie.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

11. He is making this up. There's no way in hell this can be true.

[Kurt V.]

7. these negotiations trump thinks he involved in aren't real. the negotiations are still ongoing

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

9. This is his exit strategy from Alabama.

[malaise]

13. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

You win the thread

[Hekate]

12. He just pulls this stuff out of his dumpy ass. Is there anyone left who believes him?

Oh wait -- the glorious 38%

14. Nothing on this in

-WaPo
-NYT
-Reuters
-CNN.com

Busy night for those newsrooms

16. Not a 45 tweet...."unbeknownst" is not in his vocabulary.

[irisblue]

17. Twitter is now responding

Helen Kennedy (@HelenKennedy) Tweeted:
@realDonaldTrump I can’t decide which is the worst possibility: that you made up this meeting to be dramatic, or you were going to host the Taliban at Camp David just before 9/11.

Andrew Weinstein (@Weinsteinlaw) Tweeted:
So @realDonaldTrump was perfectly happy to welcome the Taliban to the United States just days before the anniversary of 9/11 but Muslim members of Congress visiting Israel is a bridge too far for him?
