Petrushka
 
In Syria (and in Ukraine), Trump basically switched which side we were on in a war. He switched us to the Russian side. Counter to America’s interest, over and over, he does what’s best for Russia.
He has no strong convictions on foreign policy other than when he’s advancing Russia’s agenda or defending Putin.
He is obviously compromised. Why are we acting as though there’s any chance in the world he’s not?
It doesn’t even matter if there’s Russian money in his businesses or whether there’s a pee tape. At this point, he’s afraid they’ll undermine his legitimacy by admitting they helped him win or that they won’t help him win next time. Either way, Russia owns him.
At every step of the way, he is executing Russian foreign policy. He is basically Putin’s foreign minister. They have him. It’s over.

Reason enough to impeach.

Possible Trump motives

1) Protecting income flow from Trump Towers Istanbul

2) Payoff to Turkey to cover up recording of Khashoggi murder by Trump allies

3) Obeisance to Putin

4) Warning to House: if you impeach me, Ill burn every American alliance and interest before I go

Pete F. 10-07-2019 08:02 AM

What the US just did in quitting Northern Syria and abandoning one of our strongest allies the Kurds sends a chilling message to would-be allies around the world: don’t bother committing to us, because we aren’t committed to you.

Pete F. 10-07-2019 08:03 AM

It’s been debated for the better part of 4 yrs in gop circles the damage that Trump is capable of doing to our national security - the consensus among gop elected officials and national security types is US can survive 4 years but not 8. This would be the moment to say that out loud.

you conveniently left out. 5th possible motive, that the mission was to fight ISIS there, with the kurds,, and we won, and thus is trump fulfilling an explicit promise to avoid endless wars.

if there’s an issue with turkey, why does that only fall in us? why can’t the UN help out? why does the UN exist, anyway?

by what math can we survive 4 but not 8? consensus among who, exactly?

didn’t we pull out of iraq
under the last administration, with negative consequences there? i don’t remember you posting about that.

pete you may also be interested to know that lindsay graham, who i believe you called trumps pet, is attacking trumps decision to withdraw.

the pullout looks like a potentially awful move to me.

Stable Geniuses cannot figure out the difference between 4 and 8 as it pertains to a President.
Maybe Jacob Wohl could explain it to you.

i see you have zero explanation as to why we can survive 4 years but not 8. not a syllable to
support that made up, self serving statement.

One term or two
And no as the most diehard Trump supporter, who doesn’t really like him, you certainly are not among the people with doubts about anything Trump does

i get that 1 term is 4 years and 2 terms is 8 years.

please explain why our
national security can withstand one term but not two. what exactly will
happen in the second term?

that’s not a fear tactic, no sir.

Nikki Haley

We must always have the backs of our allies, if we expect them to have our back. The Kurds were instrumental in our successful fight against ISIS in Syria. Leaving them to die is a big mistake.

Pete F. 10-07-2019 10:55 AM

Why does he always sound like the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain, is it him speaking or Stephen Miller?

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
As I have stated strongly before, and just to reiterate, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I’ve done before!). They must, with Europe and others, watch over...

so you like Nikki Haley now?

if she and Mattis think it's bad, that’s about enough for me. unless he got assurances from turkey that they wouldn’t invade, and no one is saying he did that.

Haley will likely run in 2024. she appreciates your support.
