CAMP DAVID DISCORD: It began with a short series of tweets Saturday in which President Trump revealed he had invited the Taliban and the president of Afghanistan to Camp David for secret talks to wrap up a deal that would have traded the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan for a promise from the Taliban to negotiate in good faith with the Afghan government.

In the tweets, Trump also revealed he pulled the plug at the last minute, outraged over continued Taliban attacks, the latest last week killing an American soldier serving with Operation Freedom’s Sentinel counterterrorism mission.
