“We never agreed to protect the Kurds for the rest of their lives," President Donald Trump said while speaking to reporters at a White House for over an hour during a Cabinet meeting Monday afternoon.

Trump added,"the other region where we have been asked by Israel and Jordan to leave a small number of troops is a totally different section of Syria, near Jordan and close to Israel." Despite the deal having taken effect on Thursday, eyewitnesses reported that shelling continued through Thursday night and into Friday morning.
Stop
The US also did not agree to hand them off to Turkey & rUsSiA, to be slaughtered. Basically 45pp’s actions, makes the Kurd’s sacrifice, something 45pp knows nothing about, in the fight against isis, in vain.
Thank you for trying to get us out of some of that crap Mr President. Anybody worried about the Kurds is free to carry their happy ass over their and fight with them.
Who wants to volunteer their son to protect the Syrian border?
That wasn’t our mission. Kurds are still part of Syria and allied with Assad. This is not a military solution.
Most would hope to keep allies for the rest of ones life. Trump is so out of his league it's pitiful. He must be removed from office and held accountable along with the others that have stood behind him and supported is corruption.
End the reign of this narcissisticsociopath. He’s incapable of empathy. He is simply unable to understand the havoc his “cave” to Erdogan caused. Ethnic cleansing means nothing to him.
I wish I believed in Hell so I could believe that he and all the terrible people who voted for him and all the even worse people who STILL stand behind him would all go straight there.
War Criminal.
No one is saying America should.
But must. The kurdish people has learned to protect themselves
Yet we gave Israel a Nation taken from other Nations, and have defended them every sense, but now we can't do it for the Kurd's? We have become a very creepy Nation of spoiled brats, about to have it all bounce back on us, as we become the victims of our own hate.
Is that admission of GUILT AGAIN BY TRUMP stating he never promised to protect the Kurds as they kept ISIS on lockdown! Putin has Trump by a leash and there is NO GUILT or REMORSE for TRUMPS ACTIONS and Letter sent to Turkey threatening to destroy their economy! IMPEACH NOW!
No more endless wars! Thank you realDonaldTrump!
ImpeachTrump
A wise father standing between two quarreling sons does not just stand there til they’re grown... He seeks a way for them to coexist peacefully even in his inevitable absence. “Teach a man to fish...” realDonaldTrump deserves NobelPeacePrize... it does not deserve him.
TRUMP'S BETRAYED THE KURDS IN A SHAMEFUL COWARDLY WAY AND UNLEASHED ISIS BUT PUTIN GOT EVERYTHING HE WANTS ... AGAIN ALL ROADS LEAD TO PUTIN.
Pres. Trump is not obligated to protect Syrian Kurd for the rest of their lives, he doesn't agree to adopt Kurd as his babies.
I think if Trump decides to stay there for kurds all these assh***s in comments would scream he sells American soldiers' lives for nothing
Right? Ironically the US protected Kurds for the rest of “their lives”, which was last week when Trump ordered genocide. He is a heartless mother fucker! With blood on his hands. Can’t wait to see him pay for his crimes & genocide. Firing squad would be too kind.
What a bastard.
AND AMERICA NEVER LED A FRIEND INTO BEING KILLED BEFORE EITHER,NO MATTER !
Donald Trump is keeping his CAMPAIGN PROMISE He said that America doesn't have any business invading other countries Trump said that he was going to get America out of these useless war So he's keeping his word
Hell, you couldn't even protect the Kurds for the rest of the fu*king fight Mr. Trump.
This is a low bar, I see why even some of the more ardent sycophants are keeping quiet on this.
damn you trump you sold kurd for nothing
Legacy News ABC!
Disproves you're ignorance our Kurdish allies did the heavy lifting of rhe brutal fighing and you turn your back on them when they need help it's going to lasting consequences your decision realDonaldTrump
Especially not if Erdogan is going to take my businesses in Istanbul away! Why be potus if I can’t conduct foreign policy to benefit trumps?
This asshole is destroying every bit of good will our country had. The GOP don't care because they are getting their tax cuts and stacking their courts.
👁️👁️
He is an appalling person. I hope to some day see him indicted for war crimes.
🙏
How is this man president of the United States?
Sounds like: Help the US and they will f*ck u from behind
This man has no soul.
Funny how the media likes to paint the Kurds as only victims when they have a huge terrorist presence in that area, it’s not nearly as black and white as you try to finger paint it. JournalismsDead
Yeah right, Mr. President! 11,000 Kurd lives were lost fighting ISIS . . .realDonaldTrump
congress has never declare war in Syria, Obama screw the country over by weaponizing ISIS who killed the most Kurds. This country wants our troops out of Syria and put the democrats and media to protect the Kurds we have our own border that needs to be secured
Not are problem
Has there has ever been anyone so ignorant about EVERYTHING? He truly has no clue.
Soon enough he's gonna pull troops out of South Korea and let the North Koreans try to invade
Trump is right, again.
If we have a good relationship with the Kurds, why were the Kurds throwing rotten potatoes at our patriotic soldiers ? These soldiers were just following the orders of the commander in chief which they knew were wrong. The potus has betrayed the troops and our Kurdish allies.
The traitorous derpmonger got the kurds to dismantle their defenses before letting turkey slaughter them. This was a set up.
As we shouldn’t
The same thing the GOP should say about you.
LYING ABOUT HIS CROWD SIZE IS ONE THING. LYING ABOUT BRINGING TROOPS HOME IS INTOLERABLE. TRUMP'S ADDED TROOPS. SYRIAN TROOPS WENT TO IRAQ. AND TRUMP'S BRAGGING THAT SAUDIS WILL PAY IS FOR TROOPS HE SENT THERE. THINK ABOUT THAT. OUR SOLDIERS RISKING THEIR LIVES FOR THAT.
Impeach the f*cking peach!
Are u serious? No! Just doubt! Because next day early morning we see ur views changed in news 😀😅😃😂 either ur changing or ur media twisting, end of the day we are engaged 😀😅😀😅😀😅😀
His foreign policy is formed by the last person he talks to.
We do not want to protect us , we just want not to support turkey the dictator regime who attack and kill the civil people by using forbiden weapons . withdrawl american troops & abandoned kurds is a clear evidence to create another group of terrorist which they support by turkey
I wonder ? Who will trust the US again? With this President
Our position as world leader is in the toilet. China & Russia will be happy to step into the void. Isolation is not a good look for us.
REPUBLICANS AND THEIR LEADER ARE FILTH. WHAT THEY HAVE DONE WITH THE KURDS IS A TREASONOUS ACT AGAINST AN ALLY. FILTH. CBSNews CNN MSNBC NBCNews SenateGOP HouseGOP SenateDems HouseDemocrats
The basis of any trump decision/policy is his ability to make money. Period. He gives no fs about anyone but himself.
What does the Democrats in the main stream media get turkey is a NATO allies the Kurds have a battle with turkey Syria Iraq Iran..They helped us kill Isis because Isis was killing them
Heeey..!! USA allies...!!, These guys are going to treason you at a blink of an eye...!!
43% of American voters are equally as repulsive as Donald Trump What decent person turns their back on an ally that protects your troops and your country from isis.
Congress has a clear Constitutional means to exercise its authority on military force. If they’re so sure about keeping men and women in Syria, they should debate, define and authorize the use of force
Congress never authorized U.S. forces in a combat role in Syria. Obama sent U.S. forces to advise Syrian Democratic Forces/Kurds to defeat ISIS, not to defend SDF/Kurds. U.S. troops can NOT engage in any combat with Turkey or Syria and you know this
Türkiye kürtlerle değil abd terör örgütü olarak tanıdığı pkk operasyon yapıyor.
TraitorTrump AllRoadsWithTrumpLeadToPutin KurdsBetrayedByTrump
You are right President.
President Trump's term has only one year more left, he is telling the truth. He can't guarantee anything exceeding to his term.
I swear to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
What a scumbag. Every day he diminishes the country and betrays or allies every day. TraitorTrump TrumpBetrayedOurAllies TrumpGenocide
TrumpKillsKurds and loves it.
Sorry sir in fact the kurds were protecting your soldiers,it's obvious we lost more than 11000 soldier and you just lost 8 in this war against isis

That is usually insinuated but trump sees no profit in it and trump don't care what happens to anyone we even saw that at the boarder he just wishes he could get away with doing that at the border.
You can be right about something, yet be wrong at the same time. In Christianity, It’s said that Jesus brought Truth showered in Grace. Truth void of grace isn’t truth. Grace void of truth isn’t grace. Truth void of grace makes the truths well tell sound like clanging symbols.
That's the language of interests,Kurds received the American army with flowers and saw them off with tomatoes.
He’s just plain evil.
I am sure you made that clear to them before they allied with us, did the heavy lifting and lost 11,000 but they still gladly joined up
Afghanistan?
He just doesn't get it. He thinks they're like some contractor he can stiff after the job is completed. He demands loyalty, but really has no idea what it is. HypocriteInChief
