“A precipitous withdrawal of U.S. forces from Syria would only benefit Russia, Iran, and the Assad regime,” and would “increase the risk” of reorganization by ISIS and other terrorist groups, the Senate leader said.
“I‘m not siding with anybody,“ he replied when asked why he was siding with “an authoritarian leader and not our Kurdish allies.“ “I can also name many more than you just named of people that totally are supportive. You see the names coming out. People are extremely thrilled,“ he said, though he did not provide any of those names.
Sen. Pat Toomey said in a statement that Trump's directive could produce war between Turkish and Kurdish forces, “poses a significant threat” to America's national security and “risks reversing the progress made in the region to destroy ISIS.” The president, Toomey implored, “should rethink this decision immediately.”: “This decision ignores lesson of 9/11. Terrorists thousands of miles away can and will use their safe-havens to launch attacks against America.
I think u don't have family, our President Trump say to come home to the soldiers .that was promise for the people and he is
Most of these same lawmakers have been there since the 90’s. Why are they just now speaking up about what we do to the Kurds? We have moved out of the way and grounded our planes since the 90’s to let the Turks bomb the Kurds. Because it’s Trump? I hate our congress.
He is not going to pull the troops out just a distraction
ok, so now lawmakers agree together on something finally! trump gives them all the finger .
It was not Turkey’s decision. It was trumps decision. Don’t question that for one second. The new Trump Tower in Instanbul opened today, just ask Ivanka Trump. That same day Trump gave Turkey the Kurds to exterminate; He also gave Russia open skies. We are all betrayed.
Trump has no problem sending our troops to Saudi to protect murderous Sheiks oil interests.
Oh you mean Republicans do have a voice, cause they sure have been quiet.
Putin Approved
I guess this blows a hole in the whole theory that the GOP is filled with nothing but Trump’s lackeys who only do his bidding
SCREW THE MIDDLE EAST
They cannot win ack their principles or our respect.. These Republicans have betrayed Anerica. Never forgive them. Ever.
What about the troops in Afghanistan for 18 years? What about the millions of displaced Syrian refugees from America and other nations violating the sovereignty of Syria? How many Syrian refugees will America or the other nations be taking? Because Europe and the west have had
Now you want to do your job?
Why is it that Trump is even in the White House, while he is being investigated? Seems very unwise. Let the VP take over until impeachment investigation is completed.
It is troubling and dangerous that president make an impulsive decision without consulting experts from his office. It is more troubling that Trump think he is God. Nobody in a stable mental health will claim himself with 'my great & unmatched wisdom'.
No shit, really? You all voted for the inept fool. I feel so sorry for all the innocent people who will pay for poor choice of a President.
Gotta get Putins work done one way or another. Trump is and has been a Russian asset. How long until we see why?
Who was consulting him through this decision? He said joint chiefs but I don’t know
You don’t realize that Trump is just giving Republicans something so they can show they can stand up to him when there is something wrong. This makes it look like they are not just yes men on impeachment! Don’t fall for it!
Denounce all you want SenateGOP . Until you actually do something besides wringing your hands you are complicit. Support Impeachment and let Trump know he cannot run amok. Where is your pride? Where is your conscience? Where is your spine?
That's is what happens. When you go against the swamp.
That's how you know Trump is bluffing. When Lindsey Graham disagrees with him on record. I don't buy any of this bullshit.
When left to his instincts, Trump will always be stupid and dishonorable -- time dumbass Republicans face up to that.
There is solution. They could send to usa terorist, since you defend them so much.
So now will the GOP finally due something about this lunatic. Admendment 25 people. He is unfit for office
