Twin foreign policy crises greet Trump in the new year Trump is directing less troops where they are needed and more troops where Trump himself manufactured a crisis with Iran for example, when he dropped the Iran deal. This emboldened Iran to stir up shit with Iraq. He put more troops in Saudi Arabia where he is protecting his own financial interests. And rocket man does what he wants to do, whenever he wants to do it, ISIS fighters are escaping, and he betrayed the kurds. Trump is a walking shit show when it comes to foreign policy.
