    Trump destroyed the safe zone and now he declares some type of bizarre victory as we have no place to make sure that Erdogan's army is abiding by the rules? WTF? WHAT DID TRUMP GET FOR THE LIVES OF ALLIES?

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Wait a minute, let me see if I got this straight, Trump gets punked by Erdogan, gives him the green light to butcher America's only ally in the area, Erdogan does just that, and now the Trumpkins are all giddy cause Trump got Erdogan to stop butchering Kurds? Really?

    Why couldn't Trump, who supposedly is the "big deal maker," work out such a deal before Turkey started butchering America's only ally in the region?

    And it is typical Trump, he has it done to a science, seen everywhere, he blunders, and then when forced to fix his blunder praises his reversal as the "greatest, tremendous, and biggest deal in history," and the lemmings swallow it

    Obviously, you are misinformed.

    From post #2 ...

    "Ankara views the Kurdish YPG, the main component of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), as a terrorist group linked to the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), which has fought a nearly four-decade war for Kurdish rights against the Turkish state.

    Erdogan said he wanted to defeat the YPG and create a a 32-kilometer-deep, 480-kilometer-long (20-mile by 300-mile) "safe zone" inside Syria along the border to protect its security and provide room to resettle millions of war refugees now in Turkey."

    "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man."
    — Joe Biden on Obama.
