Do me a favor, Dukkha. Take your friend Trump ... and just stay out of the way. (Thanks in advance)
"F" him too. The USA has been for sale and Moscow Mitch is as guilty as Trump for selling the nation to the highest bidder. We are reaping what these traitors have sown. The poor Kurds.
Spineless Trump got rolled by Turkey: NSC source
Donald Trump got "rolled" by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, a National Security Council source with direct knowledge of the discussions told Newsweek.
In a scheduled phone call on Sunday afternoon between President Trump and President Erdogan, Trump said he would withdraw U.S. forces from northern Syria. The phone call was scheduled after Turkey announced it was planning to invade Syria, and hours after Erdogan reinforced his army units at the Syrian-Turkish border and issued his strongest threat to launch a military incursion, according to the National Security Council official to whom Newsweek spoke on condition of anonymity.
The U.S. withdrawal plays into the hands of the Islamic State group, Damascus and Moscow, and the announcement left Trump's own Defense Department "completely stunned," said Pentagon officials. Turkey, like the United States, wants regime change in Syria. Russia and Iran support the Assad regime.
"President Trump was definitely out-negotiated and only endorsed the troop withdraw to make it look like we are getting something—but we are not getting something," the National Security Council source told Newsweek. "The U.S. national security has entered a state of increased danger for decades to come because the president has no spine and that's the bottom line."

no can do. I've been anti-war likely since before you were born, all the way back to Vietnam demonstrations.
I'm not about to stay silent while we wind up in some crazy useless war with Turkey over the Kurds.

"Lindsey Graham, one of Trump's staunchest defenders, is slamming the president over his decision to pull out of northern Syria and says the White House is lying about ISIS"

""This impulsive decision by the president has undone all the gains we've made, thrown the region into further chaos, Iran is licking their chops, and if I'm an ISIS fighter, I've got a second lease on life," Graham said during a Monday morning interview on "Fox and Friends." "I will do everything I can to sanction Turkey's military and their economy if they step one foot into Syria." "
Hopefully, Trump will AGAIN reverse himself and prevent Dukkha and ISIS from fucking everything up. (?)

ROFL.. do you think John McCain will rise from the dead !
maybe not -but ISIS is "dead" as an entity. Quit the fear mongering
Praise Jesus you weren't around during the Revolution. (instead of Dukkha, can I just call you Doormat?)
Still clinging to the "Deep State" conspiracy theory, eh?
Do you buy Donald Trump's claim that his wisdom and foresight are unmatched on this Earth?
Or do you think it is possible you have been duped into supporting a mentally unstable megalomaniac with delusions of grandeur?
after Libya they sure as hell haven't learned a damn thing about interventionism
Uh ... you should probably direct your anger towards Mitch and Lindsey.
could you possibly stay on topic?? thanks.
