    Werewolf Pat Robertson: Trump Will Lose His ‘Mandate of Heaven’ if He Pulls Out of Syria

    “I am absolutely appalled that the United States is going to betray those democratic forces in northern Syria,”


    The ultra-conservative televangelist on Monday joined a growing chorus of Republican critics of Trump’s decision on Syria.

    When you’ve lost Pat Robertson…

    Reacting to President Donald Trump’s announcement that American forces will pull out of Syria and pave the way for Turkey to invade the country and attack Kurdish allies, the ultra-conservative televangelist on Monday joined the growing chorus of Republican critics of the president’s decision.

    “I am absolutely appalled that the United States is going to betray those democratic forces in northern Syria,” he said during Monday’s broadcast of The 700 Club, first spotted by Right Wing Watch. “That we are possibly going to allow the Turkish to come in against the Kurds.”


    Calling Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan a “thug” and “dictator,” Robertson said it was “nonsense” to call the Turkish leader an ally of America, claiming Erdogan is just “in for himself.”

    Robertson, who has been a loyal Trump supporter, then took full aim at the president.

    “The president, who allowed [Washington Post journalist Jamal] Khashoggi to be cut in pieces without any repercussions whatsoever, is now allowing the Christians and the Kurds to be massacred by the Turks,” he exclaimed. “The President of the United States is in danger of losing the mandate of heaven if he permits this to happen.”


    Robertson’s forceful condemnation of the president comes as Trump takes heat from some of his staunchest defenders over the Syria pullout. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) called the president’s move “irresponsible” and “unnerving to its core,” while Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade said the decision was “disastrous” as it would leave the Kurds to fend for themselves.

    Amid the criticism from his supporters and fellow Republicans, Trump defended pulling out of Syria while adding that in his “great and unmatched wisdom” he would destroy Turkey’s economy if they did anything he considered to be off limits.
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Well, looks like our Religious Friends here may have gotten the Call.
    Trump may not listen to his Generals or Intelligence Community, but ... Pat Robertson. That should get his attention.

    I am absolutely appalled by the fact that Israel won't fight it's own battles, but manages to do it with U.S. blood and treasure.

    more horseshit. Erdogan is a NATO partner - not an ally.

    Hint: it’s not the late-80’s or 90’s any more lol.

    Brother Pat is largely irrelevant. Especially, on this subject.

    I suppose that, if you are already as contemptible as is Trump, to betray those who have had so many die in your common cause is just normal. To decent people it is unspeakably disgusting.

    Well, there’s wasn’t much to it to begin with and I get the sense there might be a little ‘wag the dog’ going on lol.

    Finally, the country is having a substantive debate.

    Trump must execute his resign and pardon exit strategy soon and so is burning through his list of Putin promises he must keep
    so as not to meet a polonium sushi party demise. Trump is fully operational now, has his go bag ready to shut down treadstone at 1600.

    It might be picking up steam, but not in a way Democrats will approve of.

    Excerpt plus link:

    It becomes clear why they’re all trying to destroy Trump

    Romney, Kerry, Biden, McCain, Pelosi, Schiff, Mueller & Clinton are all tied to sketchy Ukraine deals. No wonder they want to impeach President Trump!

    Mitt Romney’s top adviser, Joseph Cofer Black, joined the board of the Ukraine energy firm, Burisma, while Hunter Biden was also serving on the board. Hunter Biden was taking a salary of $50,000 per month from Burisma, and was simultaneously engaged in a relationship with John Kerry’s stepson, Chris Heinz, and mobster Whitey Bulger’s nephew, in a private equity firm, that allegedly appeared to be laundering millions of dollars in foreign money from China & the Ukraine, through Latvia, and back to the US.
