The former CIA chief General Michael Hayden said it would be a good idea to send unvaccinated Trump supporters to Afghanistan. A Twitter user asked, “Can we send the MAGA wearing unvaccinated to Afghanistan, no use sending that plane back empty”? He replied, “Good idea”. Gen Hayden headed the CIA from 2006 to 2009 during the final years of the presidency of George W Bush. Republican Jim Banks wrote, “It was sad and unbecoming even from you, Mike”. The general retweeted another user who said, “Mr. Banks, General Hayden doesn’t need to hear from you”. Gen Hayden has actively criticized former President Donald Trump and his supporters on Twitter. He retweeted memes critical of MAGA fans and the unvaccinated. Gen Hayden tweeted about Mr. Trump on 19^th August and said, “He’s an ass hole, Pure and simple”.

Gen Hayden also retweeted a meme that said, “Trump supporters were our Taliban”. He also served as the director of the National Security Agency as the principal deputy director of national intelligence. California Senator Dianne Feinstein alleged him in 2014 over falsely describing the interrogation techniques of the CIA. Republican operative Scott Parkinson tweeted, “What started out as calling Trump’s supporters have escalated into former CIA director Michael Hayden RT’d a tweet comparing Trump supporters to the Taliban. Tell me about the Deep State again”. Journalist Glenn Greenwald tweeted, “George Bush and Dick Cheney’s former CIA/NSA Director and current CNN favorite endorsing the idea that people who wear MAGA hats and aren’t vaccinated should be forcibly shipped to Afghanistan.

Greenwald added, “The US intelligence community has always been led by sociopaths”. Sebastian Gorka served as deputy assistant to the president in 2017 during Trump’s tenure. Gorka made fun of Gen Hayden’s military service and called him a seditious hack. Trump held a rally in Alabama on Saturday and slammed President Biden for the handling of the US troop withdrawal from Afghanistan. He said, “This was not a withdrawal, this was a total surrender, for no reason. He surrendered our airbase. He surrendered our weapons. He surrendered our embassy”. Gen Hayden endorsed President Joe Biden in 2020 and the former intelligence chief frequently retweets posts bashing the unvaccinated as well as Donald Trump.
