Not even the most ardent Trump supporter could ignore or try to mitigate the damaging barrage of headlines assaulting this hapless administration.
So, what can a besieged, clueless Trump do???.........
Simple answer: Redirect the conversation by making a decision that can piss off virtually everyone' that is, order a withdrawal of our troops from Syria.....
Who are then the WINNERS" of such an unexpected (and moronic) decision to pull out of Syria?
a. Temporarily, Trump himself.......He gets a reprieve from being blasted for corruption, to being blasted as the worst of decision-makers and deal-maker.
b. Putin must be toasting vintage vodka all over the Kremlin
c. Iran must be declaring a national holiday
d. Erdogan of Turkey is probably dancing in the streets of Ankara
e. ....and, of course, ISIS must be thinking they got a commutation of their life-sentence
So, who are the LOSERS???
a. Most of all the Kurds who.....after being our staunchest allies in fighting ISIS, will now be slaughtered by the combined forces of Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Syria and certainly ISIS.
b. Israel who must be trying to figure out how they can call Trump a traitor to their cause after just recently praising him.
c. All the NATO allies who will be left alone in Syria claiming that the 2020 US elections can't come fast enough.
d. ALL OF US in America who must wonder how we can afford 6,000 troops to fight off the so-called caravans at the Mexican border.....but can't afford 1800 troops in Syria.
So now that Trump is against continued foreign intervention in Syria you're suddenly a war mongering neo-con chickenhawk?
