GOP congressman 'heartbroken' over President's Syria moves and says he no longer supports Trump

Even as congressional Republicans largely stand behind the President as he faces an impeachment inquiry in the House, lawmakers from Trump's own party this week have joined Democrats in widely condemnation of his recent decision that enabled Turkey to launch an attack on Kurdish forces who fought alongside Americans to defeat ISIS.

"Turkish troops preparing to invade Syria from the north, Russian-backed forces from the south, ISIS fighters attacking Raqqa. Impossible to understand why @realDonaldTrump is leaving America's allies to be slaughtered and enabling the return of ISIS."Live updates: Turkey launches military offensive in SyriaAnd Sen.

I don't like abandoning the Kurds either, but what we supposed to do? Get involved in another war?

Holy Hell!!!! A Republican with a spine. I appreciate realJohnShimkus putting a name on it. FakePresident realDonaldTrump your time is coming to an end. ImpeachAndRemove shannonlong1005

Congrats dude.

Lmao another rino who loves war funny how dems hated war but now love war!

We are all heartbroken sir. For the Kurds and the people of America. But you have made the right decision. God bless you.

jkgood1 One down

War mean $$$$$$$ he must have lost some payoffs for all the 6trillion we spent so far! ALWAY FOLLOW THE MONEY! HACKS

ILGOP you better find someone to Primary this loser.

FUNNY, CNN didn't say a damn thing about Obama's gutless RED LINE. It's not about the man for CNN, it's the COLOR of the man. CNN is so full of 💩

Let’s go to war with them. After all that’s what the democrats want because Trump doesn’t want it.

No more war!

I’ve got nothing for the GOP. If killing tens of thousands of American allies is what makes you stop supporting Donald trump, but separating thousands of kids from their parents and detaining thousands of unvaccinated kids in cages is ok, I’ve still got a middle finger 🖕🏼for you

My question is troops are still there & turkey is attacking & guards are leaving prisons. So why does it matter if we are there or not?

One has to wonder how many of the Presidents critics have money tied up in military equipment manufacturers, and other investments in defense. We can't continue to fight all these wars. Those that criticize the most should make sure their loved ones are on the front line!

bluff

This gives some repugnuts cover to finally pull out the shit storm coming!!!

👏👏👏👏👏

The cracks are soon going to collapse this shit show.

It's about time somebody with some balls stood up to Trump. I don't know where those other balless so call men

Took long enough but finally starting to look like its all coming crashing down

He has a soul .

The betrayal of the Kurds by Trump should surprise noone, he is loyal to no one but himself.

So the straw that broke the camels back was his treatment of the Kurds and not the treatment of immigrants or non-white US citizens.

He's in an otherwise blue district. This is no real surprise.
