Former Trump United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley on Wednesday attacked President Joe Biden for negotiating with the Taliban during the withdrawal of American citizens and allies -- and it instantly blew up in her face.
Writing on Twitter, Haley expressed disbelief that the Biden administration would be holding talks with the Taliban during the withdrawal.
"To have our Generals say that they are depending on diplomacy with the Taliban is an unbelievable scenario," she wrote. "Negotiating with the Taliban is like dealing with the devil."
Of course, former President Donald Trump and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo held repeated negotiations with the Taliban about withdrawing American forces and even came up with a plan to have all U.S. forces out of the country this year.
Many of Haley's Twitter followers instantly reacted by posting a photo of Pompeo meeting with a Taliban official and accused her of shameless hypocrisy for her attacks on the Biden administration.

Nikki was part of an administration that released Taliban leader Baradar with 5,000 other Taliban fighters, negotiated a peace deal with the Taliban, invited them to Camp David on 9/11 and left the elected Afghan government out of the negotiations.https://twitter.com/nikkihaley/status/1428080638658289668\u00a0\u2026— Morten \u00d8verbye (@Morten \u00d8verbye) 1629316855
