This is Iraq on steroids

Lindsey loves all wars. Kind of typical of a fem like him.

scumbag

PodSaveAmerica CNNPolitics RBReich Wait!! How did he get a airplane?

yuuji_K1 Which LindseyGrahamSC said this?

So be it none of our business there

GOP leaders must chooses bw a racist whom they agree with or a Russian asset whose actions give them goosebumps. LindseyGrahamSC

Sad. Obviously my intelligence insight is obviously better than LindseyGrahamSC . BarackObama has lost control over Iraq years ago to Iran. Iraq is a franchise state of Iran. In Syria whole divisions of the Iranian army switch simply their uniforms to Syrians. A swamp.

👄 Have Mr. Graham explain this to Mr. Trump. The rest of us get it. 🍒

No exit strategy = perpetual war strategy

That's simply not true. In Iraq we toppled a dictator and then installed a puppet who cut the strings. In Syria we left a dictator in charge who has a powerful ally. Syria will not descend into an Iraqi chaos.

The curds

So why has he been so adamant about protecting an obviously nonsensical person like trump? and not simply because of both of them being a member of the 21st century Nazi ie Republican Party either

We occupy a tiny strip of Syria with a bunch of 100 jihadi groups that Barack supposedly vetted. We have no plan other than destroying the IS caliphate which is done.

How did he get to Turkey since spanky downed all military flights. Did he go commercial?

Private Pyle.

Gotta learn to keep up with the Map

Bring them home....3 more Americans killed in Syria...at what cost, for what purpose?

And being there is not creating chaos?

Her pulled himself off Trump's teat long enough to mumble something that benign.

realDonaldTrump

Time to review what held us in Vietnam.

I think AP should correct “Iraq on steroids” to “Iran on steroids.”

This Fake President OUTS a Woman’s war torn foreign trip but NOT a man’s. He’s so silly.

Russians will be happy to take full control of Syria.. doesn't he get it

The GOP Federal Government has discovered the best style of leadership! It is called BlameDemocrats! Senator Lindsey Graham and Republican led Senate should 'Blame Democrats' for US withdrawal from Syria!

Lyndsay Graham, be mindful who you think our friends are, not the person shaking your hand...

Worse than ISIS?

Just after the gift of personal air plane 🛩 the Qatar 🇶🇦 emir & MBS to Turkey erdogan so the issues of khashoggi concerns those of UAE 🇦🇪!

Why is LindseyGrahamSC in Turkey Thought congressional travel was unacceptable for SpeakerPelosi ... oh

Countdown until LindseyGrahamSC tweets that the POTUS must pull out of Syria “Now!”

Tell that to your leader.

If he’s so concerned then maybe he should pick up a rifle and head on over to help out

LucasFoxNews who cares let assad, iran, russia deal with it. we'll be gone11

But if it came to a vote he would still vote how trump wanted him to ... all talk

So can a government shutdown but he is doing shit about that

So close to Moscow. I wonder if lindsey went for his monthly payment, to gets this months instructions for destroying our democracy, and kiss Putin’s ring? As far as I’m concerned he can stay there and leave our country alone!!!!

So... we need to secure our borders. Graham why is your state giving computer tablets to convicts.

Trump ran out of crayons so no drawings of his plans

the chaos in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan has been led by the existence of Americans as it is clear that there was no problem among mid east countries before americans came mid east UN cnni Europarl_EN TIME nytimesworld WSJ washingtonpost USATODAY AlJazeera NATO

Agree. But you are naive ABC to think there is no plan...why do you think the plan would be revealed publically?

Wait, the Iraq War disaster was caused by illegal US intervention. So we’re supposed to prevent that with...more illegal US intervention?

How did he get there? Military aircraft or commercial?

Agreed

Lindsey Graham has no credentials for anything except lying. He has reach the top of the slimy, idiot, sycophant politician pile. Oh, not quite. Trump is already there but Lindsey wants to displace him to enhance his legacy.

Graham's Ally in Syria, Turkey, they don't want the US troops to leave either?

...uses that 'on steroids' reference a lot.

it's been chaos since the US first decided to get involved in Syria, by arming and backing Al Qaeda in an attempt to overthrow Assad, providing an excuse to then intervene militarily as well. new plan: stop meddling with other countries and always making things worse.

So it sounds like the choice is: - intervene and stay forever, or - don’t get involved in the first place.

And it did! It got 4 people killed & many injuries; how about a Syria investigation into the president

I thought Trump banned political junkets during the shutdown.

Dumbest logic yet from Graham. Wait...the US leaving a sovereign country that it has no right being in instead of wholesale invading it and destabilizing the region even more, as it did with Iraq, would somehow lead Syria to be like Iraq during the insurgency? Lol

Why is LindseyGrahamSC the “Special Envoy” to Turkey? washingtonpost nytmike maggieNYT EliStokols CarolLeonnig

Big differences from Iraq: Syria already has a government, and the US didn't dissolve the Syrian army. We don't need to be there. Yankee go home.

Once you stick your nose in, it's your responsibility to leave it better for their citizens than before you got there.....

4 dead already!!

Cause Syria is not in chaos now....

We have chaos over here thanx to the Gop not keeping 45 in check.

israel will make sure the US never pulls out of Syria. Pretty sure mossad had their hands on the 'terror' attack this week that killed those americans in that cafe. terroristsupporters warcriminals

You never know which Lindsey Graham you are going to get.

Why isn’t he in DC waiting for a vote? That’s what Trump says Dems should be doing. I guess there’s no vote anytime soon.

Iraq or Iran on steroids?

graham is less than half the man he was when john mccain was alive 🍎🍎

It already is. Syria just like Iraq is a fractured country!

LindseyGrahamSC Your written words are merely an injection of antibiotics, given every 3-4 weeks to voting Americans, in order to squelch symptoms of intolerance and disgust.Something stronger is needed since this is no longer working to rid the virus. We have an epidemic.

But..but..VP swore ISIS is vanquished, LindseyGrahamSC, and Mother doesn't let him lie. But..but...butcher Assad is still there....gassed his own citizens...oh..vp realDonaldTrump says it isn't our problem? Syrian resistance & Kurds were really just vp realDonaldTrump pawns

well... what do you expect from a russian asset occupying the oval office?

It would also greatly reduce the donations Lindsey receives from the Military Industrial Complex.........war is good for fund raising!

What’s Graham going to do, stand up to Trump?

He’s an idiot, he can’t talk a straight line!

There hasn’t been chaos in Syria?

Just leave.

But Bashar Al Assad is a strong leader that can handle any kind of 'steroid led' terrorists!

Right because all the places America invaded end up better because America invade them

Except in Iraq, we kind of decimated their military and took out their leader.... Syria is more than capable of handling their own affairs at this point as ISIS no longer has control of any territory. The ending of Operation Timber Sycamore was a much needed death blow to ISIS.

What is this idiot doing in Turkey? On our dime of course.

Not to mention embolden a certain terrorist group.

No one knows more about pulling out of Syria than Trump

There is a plan and it is being utilized

ImpeachTrump TrumpResign

For Donnie Syria and NATO are minor matters compared to the collusion

Erdogan and BB are big boys that can pay and fix their self created misery. I can only envision what is on tape for Graham.

Well, let’s PLAN to give the areas we are illegally occupying back to Assad, the DEMOCRATICALLY elected leader, of the sovereign nation of Syria

We follow Donald trump he is the reality man

In few words,there is not appropriate response for Siria,if USA stay there is bad,but if withdrawal from this country is worsing

LindseyGrahamSC says it like it's a good thing. GOP the party of hatred and greed

Hey LindseyGrahamSC we ALL knew that before you made the trip to Turkey --- during a TrumpShutdown. Guess you just wanted a shiny photo op with a dictator.

Come on guys. Don’t want to talk about buzzfeed anymore?

When was this trip?

Just like invading Iraq without an exit strategy lead to chaos.

But the government shutdown😌😌 did Lindsey took a commercial flight

Imagine if you had the balls to do anything about it.

Everything that comes out of Lindsey's mouth is completely irrelevant as he is proven to be nothing more than another Trump sycophant. ReplaceLindseyGraham ReplaceMitchMcConnell

The US insertion into Syria was without a plan, didn’t halt proceedings

Tell that to the President.....

There's a plan! Problem is it only exists in the head of the effin idiot in charge..

Planning causes the President to break out in hives.

Really, Nice thought. When tht was announced We(The People)new tht was a Bad idea..

Why isn't LindseyGrahamSC in DC working on reopening the government as realDonaldTrump ordered ALL Congress to do?

... If true.

Or it would lead to no U.S. troops being blown up by bombs. You decide.

Who gives a fuck what he has to say about anything?

Not so... we have the ability to strike anywhere in the middle east quite rapidly.

We already have a 'chaos' in America and Graham is part of it along with the Russian Asset.

Lindsey Graham suggests Trump's Syria withdrawal announcement led to killing of U.S. soldiers in ManbijThe blast took place just weeks after Trump announced that the U.S. would pull the estimated 2,000 U.S. troops stationed in Syria out of the country. Any withdrawal of any army in any war in any time suffered and will suffer in any extent of the same problem. It’s about momentarily vulnerability not the decisio to pull out. Ask any historian or any military commander. Lindsey, find a Democrat that you can work with and both of you come to the AlliancePTYSC and /or the AlliancePTY .

Lindsey Graham says Trump's Syria statements emboldened ISISRepublican Sen. Lindsey Graham said Wednesday that he is concerned President Trump's statements about Syria have emboldened ISIS and called on Trump to rethink his decision to withdraw US troops from the country The word 'concerned' holds absolutely no more value & is devoid of all meaning because of a man named Lindsey. Poor Graham doesn't know what to do with the crooked traitor - he supports the Clown then speaks against the madness - Graham is conflicted but Russian blackmail is a powerful thing isn't it Lindsey? VOTE GRAHAM OUT !!!! LindseyGrahamSC It looks like you've been feeling conflicted. Come on board with the rising evidence that Trump is unfit for office. High Crimes & Misdemeanors means whatever you think it means. I would say a full 70% will be fine with it. Unindicted coconspirator.

Sen. David Perdue on shutdown: Both parties are being 'totally irresponsible''People in America ought to be outraged.' Sen. David Perdue said the negotiating process to end the government shutdown is 'broken.' He said he fears 'we'll be right back here next year doing exactly this' if we don't change the way we fund the government. point taken, fire the entire government from the top all the way down. They are ALL holding this country hostage there is no innocent party here and it's at the expense of our country and economy Congress has used the Power of The Purse like a political football forever. It is their Ace in the Hole. Their 'do as I say or I'll stop your money' attitude is exactly why we are where we are. Money is not so much king today. Did anyone bother to ask him whether his “outrage” was for his 16000 constituents going without pay? David Perdue is holding federal employees’ paychecks hostage for Trump’s nonsense campaign promise and he isn’t doing a thing to resolve this. This is a TrumpMcConnellShutdown.
