MonsterMarcia Make no mistake: This is all about power and control by Putin via gas supplies.

Oh gawd! What if HRC did that 😮

It’s a big mistake to call it ‘ ISIS terrorists escape’ because they were released by pkkypgterrorists on purpose. Are you so much blind not even able to write this truth? OperationPeaceSpring TurkeyFightsTerrorism

Thanks realDonaldTrump we are all much safer now because of you 😩

Mission Accomplished Part 2

Don't worry guys, they can't do anything; they were defeated...🧐

After bullying allies, slighting women, fanning racial hatred, disparaging the media, wage trade wars, tearing up treaties, denouncing climate issues, i guess there is nothing much left but free terrorists.

Turkish Nation writes history against the seven heifers. .but we did it all. We expelled the terror structure that they had built in five years from our border in five days. We brought Russia with us. We tied the EU with the refugees.We forced the US to withdraw from our border.

Well, if 100 white supremacists means a national emergency then I suppose 100 jihadists can be considered full on isis.

Well now,after 100s of ISIS affiliates escaped Syrian prison camps, Trump can no longer claim that ISIS has been set back 100%. There sb TV ads driving home this pt in GOP districts where reps are up for reelection in 2020.

Let’s just do what the last admin did & let the Russians build some military bases & airstrips around there.

Well everyone. Looks like trump could be a sleeper isis cell.

Giving the right news first is a success. Spreading false news is supporting terrorism

Yesterday you said the Turkish army had bombed the U.S. army. Are you sure, this news is true? Don't be fooled by Anhanews again

Oh my...my oh my.

I would like to know how trump feels having so much blood on his corrupt and irresponsible hands.

Elections have consequences right GOP and senatemajldr SenateGOP RepublicanAreKurdKillers RepublicanISISterrorists

And any deaths and destruction by them will be more blood on Trump's hands and on the hands of those who do not stand up to his caprice and hubris. He is a danger to National Security and to the US troops he is supposed lead. Shame TrumpBetrayedOurAllies and it helps ISIS

Democrats are inviting the ISIS escapees to the Southern border so they can apply for amnesty!

They will go out and recruit others. Dark times ahead. Thanks Trump. You are really at the top of your game.

Thank you Donald Trump, the greatest that ever lived. Congratulations
