American journalist, Steve Coll, in his article, “The Taliban’s Response to Trump’s Afghanistan Address,” speaks on the truth of President Donald Trump’s administration not making full efforts for new strategies to end the war. Coll was influenced to write the article by the Taliban’s spokesman, Zabihullah Mujahid’s open letter to Trump, in which he states that the U.S cannot defeat the Taliban. Throughout Coll’s article he is straightforward on persuading the public that Trump has not done anything in the war and that it will not end soon. With the use of satire Coll states that Trump has contradicted himself when stating that the U.S would “change dramatically” but, yet outlined George W. Bush and Barack Obama’s previous approaches to strategies.
