Why isn't "Neville Chamberlain" trending yet?

Unfortunate evergreen tweet, more likely as of yesterday.

The Bush, Obama, Trump & Biden admins, and their Pentagon leaders, lied to us about the war's progress as they fed a stillborn strategy with billions in weapons. The result: Militants rocking night vision, killing civilians with rifles made in Connecticut and South Carolina.
