Syrian Kurds are close to declaring Independence

Am the only one who doesn’t really give a sh*t about any of this?

no

Theory: Erdogan contacts Trump privately, tells him, "Allow Turkey to create a buffer zone between our border and Syria. If you don't allow this, we'll close down your hotels."

Compromised President?

It's worse than that.. seems as though there could be some complicity with the laundering of Iranian oil/money.

Rudy and Trump have been trying to quash the prosecution of a person involved in the case, on behalf of Erdogan.

There are some interesting timings with the phone call and subsequent withdraw.

Correct.

I dont either. If we stay there, we'll have to go to war against somebody. Funny how the marxist party has been all about avoiding war until trump actually avoids war and suddenly the communist dems are hawks.

The thing that is so striking about the letter is that it is written like a tweet. Trump is so unsophisticated it is downright shocking. And, he seems to be genuinely bewildered that people are starting to be turned off by his schmaltzy fake charm.

At least some in the GOP base, given polling and comments of at least a couple of GOP Senators, are now willing to admit that the Emperor has no clothes. And never really did.

It is shallow thinking like that which typifies the Trump cult. You know that the situations is much more complicated than that.

Or, maybe you don't.

Talking point, black or white binary choices.... "Nuh uh uh... Either you want our soldiers dead, or you want them alive."

Don't try to get tricky talking about how this could possibly be more complicated.

Is Putin the new king of the Middle East? - WND

Here is an interesting op piece about the situation. Pretfy good article.

Read this ya dumb Trump bashers. The author isnt a "redhat" as yall call em...hes a person whose head isnt up their arse.

Putin just won a turd sammich...and now has to spend his blood and treasure to accomplish the same thing anyone else is gonna accomplish there....nothing. We still have a stranglehold over the med and the middle east , Persian gulf, same as always...but Putin gets to deal with all of Hezbollah, isis, turks, syrians, kurds, you name it...in an unwinnable war without an objective. We still have Incirlik...a major AFB a couple hundred miles from Russia with 50 tactical nukes at the ready...and still have Saudi, UAE, Kuwait, etc etc as our allies...and trading all of their oil in US dollars.

Careful what you ask for Putin. Soon, they will be resented for their presence just like we often are...and seen as imperialist occupiers by nearly everyone. While gaining zero....

Smells like big desperation from you as usual.....doesn't matter what he does you'll bash him all day every day.
You have no control about what he says or does.....just more piss & moan daily from your side of the aisle.

"Avoiding War"

Trump literally just shifted his pawns to be security guards for the scumbag Saudi's. if you're going to create a dichotomy of "war or leave," probably want to make sure your talking point is backed up by reality.

So far, you don't know squat either about the situations at hand.....just another loony Dim spouting the Dim talking points.....thinking they're the only ones that know it all as fact..........good job.

Except it's both sides of the aisle, military commanders, the intelligence community and common sense.

The reason he's bashed daily is because he does dumb sht daily, it's a symptom of a toddler having access to twitter.

Did you even read the letter he wrote to Erdogan? The great deal maker in chief is a fraud, we all know it - some of us, apparently, refuse to acknowledge it.

LOL, re-treading deflections and meme's now?

Your argument that it's coming from one side of the aisle is bogus, we both know it.

Well, its really not difficult to complain about him because every day he or his soldiers make at least two or three of the most idiotic statements imaginable.

So, that changes your life in Florida? Does that make your paycheck any smaller? Trump wants to bring troops home and you want them to stay for what reason again ....... just so they can say idiotic things or stand by the Kurds who need to grow a pair and fight if needs be? Good old endless wars.....smells great.

right.......meme's for you to understand the nature of this. but keep believing whatever gets you through the day.....I know you will.....it's what you do.

What is the solution that the Kurds want here?

Correct.

What would your letter look like?

He also talks as if this "ceasefire" by Turkey ended the entire Syrian civil war.

You present a false choice. It isn't simply "stay there" or "come home."

There is a vast swath of middle ground that you, and Trump, ignore. Now, I know why you ignore it -- because as a member of the cult you are stuck defending this turd of a decision by this turd of a President. But why did he do it? Choose one of the three:


A) Because Putin told him to.

B) Because he wanted Erdogan to say nice things about him.

C) Because Putin told him to.
