Donald Trump, the current president of the United States of America, is receiving an endorsement from an organization that no one likes in the modern world.
The Taliban, a terrorist organization, has officially announced that they are rooting for Donald Trump to win the 2020 US elections.
Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesperson of the Taliban, said that they believe the current president of the United States of America will be winning the election this year.
They believe his America first mentality towards leadership will be the reason behind the huge win.
Mujahid said in the statement that was released:
We believe that Trump is going to win the upcoming election because he has proved himself a politician who accomplished all the major promises he had made to American people, although he might have missed some small things, but did accomplish the bigger promises, so it is possible that the U.S. people who experienced deceptions in the past will once again trust Trump for his decisive actions. We think the majority of the American population is tired of instability, economic failures and politicians’ lies and will trust again on Trump because Trump is decisive, could control the situation inside the country.
The Taliban also praised the current president of the United States of America for his commitment to getting the US troops out of Afghanistan.
Earlier this year, Donald Trump, the current sitting president of the United States of America, signed a pact with the terrorist group, which promised the country to pull American troops from Afghanistan over the upcoming months.
In the pact that he signed with the group in February this year, the United States of America would withdraw from the Middle East by April or May next year.
In exchange for the troops pulling out, the Taliban will have to break up from al-Qaeda and organize a power-sharing deal with the local government rivals.
There are fewer than 5,000 American troops in Afghanistan right now.
The numbers are expected to be cut in half by the year 2021.
Talking about the support of the Taliban, President Trump said that they do not want any of it.
Tim Murtaugh, the communications director of Trump’s re-election, said that they are rejecting the endorsement of the terrorist organization.
Murtaugh said:
We reject their support and the Taliban should know that the President will always protect American interests by any means necessary, unlike Joe Biden who opposed taking out Osama bin Laden and Qassem Soleimani.
