    This is such a stupid message it's unbelievable. If only outcome is stalemate then of course Taliban will win. They can't leave, USA can.https://twitter.com/joshledermanAP/status/900059618889670657 …

        A stalemate to a lesser opponent in chess is a "victory" for the lesser opponent. Every chess player knows that. Rex not a chess player, app
