The U.S. delegation President Donald Trump is sending to try to negotiate a ceasefire and settlement between Turkey and U.S.-backed Syrian Kurdish forces will depart in the next 24 hours, a senior administration official said Tuesday.
"Leaving the field now would mean leaving the door wide open for a resurgence of this dangerous force [ISIS] and a new iteration of the Islamic State, creating a power vacuum begging for the meddling influence of Russia, leaving northeastern Syria wide open for Iran to extend its reach unimpeded all the way from Tehran to the doorstep of our friends in Israel, and destroying the leverage we currently have to compel Bashar al Assad to stop his slaughter of the Syrian people and negotiate an...
They added,"We failed in our mission to deter Turkey from coming in," but they rejected the categorization that the U.S. abandoned its Kurdish partner forces. Turkey is still"mulling over the impact of the sanctions and other action that we communicated to them," the official said, but the administration hopes now that they will be open to conversations to halt their operations.
Waste of fuel for airplane 2.
Is this the creation of optics that Pence can fix what tRUmp has broken after impeachment?
TELL EM LIES LIKE I DO TO CHINA
The one that caused the mess is the that should clean it up. But puppets like y'all are only going to make it worse by the insults of whatever deal that y'all going to offer them. Either way, it's too late to correct the damage that's done and lives lost.
This tweet didnt age well
maggieNYT Let me help you with this. “Pence and Pompeo are on a PR mission to try to fix the god awful mess that’s resulted from the war they planned.”
maggieNYT Send Pence and Mother home. Vote!
The horse gas bolted. Fools
maggieNYT why would anyone meet with this cast of criminals?
maggieNYT Doesn’t Pence understand that conversion therapy doesn’t work?
Who they meeting? Erdogan don’t wanna talk
maggieNYT This will be a gong show
Erdogan has already given his answer.
Wat did any of them think would happen when they said the troops would no longer b there. So wat do they get if they stop. Cuz that’s trumps game. Something for something
And make sure you stop to spend the night at Turnberry on the way.
maggieNYT Isn’t this a case of arsonists playing at being firemen? ImpeachTrumpPenceBarrPompeo
So...the boys going over to try and stop what Trump started? Good luck.
maggieNYT Where is the president why are they hiding him?
Public service announcement: We the people are paying for this shit show. Our hard earned $'s funding GOPCorruption & incompetence. VoteBlueToSaveAmerica KurdishGenocide ImpeachAndRemove ContemptOfCongress
maggieNYT Will Mother also be going?
maggieNYT Pence’s trip is just a too-late PR effort. Trump was played. Russia is in charge in Syria now.
You and him and the other him created this mess because all of you do not know foreign policy, only greed-disgusting people -stupid men with egos the size of outer space-down right murderers
Why not Trump? He would be closer to Russia and it would make it easier for him to stay there in exile for when it becomes apparent that he will be impeached and later arrested for all his crimes.
maggieNYT Waste of time. It will change nothing. All for show. I don't know him. We've never met. Hillary did it.
Time for Mike Pence to clean up his boss's mess
maggieNYT Why in the name of God do they still have the ability to speak for America? Impeach this administration NOW!
Maybe you should have talked to Cadet Bone Spurs before he sold out the Kurds .
maggieNYT Too little too late
Where will Rudy be on the plane?
Another excuse to hop on a plane for a joy ride, cowards.
A bit late!!!!! 😡
maggieNYT Cease Fire, Not Likely. The Reality is probably closer to Pence pleading if you want our future financial assistance you’ll play along that Trump didn’t green light this Genocide!
maggieNYT Are they waving a white flag?
maggieNYT They can go F *** themselves. They did this. They let DerangedDonald betray our allies and now they think they can swoop in and fix it? GTFOH americabetrayskurds
What a joke!
Better send babysitters to make sure they obey the law while there
What a joke! realDonaldTrump’s stupidity caused this mess. He gave Turkey the green light, now they think that they are just going to leave?
Pence and Pompeo: 'Stop. Please stop. We mean it. You should really stop. Stop it, you're making us mad' Erdogan: 'Trump Towers'. 'Oh , never mind'
The dog and the pony. Let the show begin
maggieNYT Too late for those douchebags.
maggieNYT You mean to fix what they created?
Kinda like, a day late and dollar short.
ERDY: I haz your 50 nukey bombs. PencePeo: well OK then can you at least pick up our hotel tab at Trump Towers?
Remember? “I alone can fix this this!” Yeah, it appears he alone can create a total mess, fixing things...not so much! Truly, what has he fixed? Truly, what at this point is better than when he started? Taxes? For whom Jobs? Name one single policy of him that helped jobs
All show!
Sending the two weasels in the fire
This is beyond hypocrisy- trump starts a hideous war and genocide then sends Pence to try to stop it. TRUMP SET THIS WHOLE THING IN MOTION.
maggieNYT Slow walking while Kurds die! Will they stay at Trump branded property? Will the sanctions adversely impact the competition to Trump property?
maggieNYT Trump will claim he brought peace to the Middle East due to his bigly strong and powerful threats.
Good luck and America is not great !
maggieNYT Was Pence spotted with a bag of money for Erdogan? CrookedTrump
Creates chaos....then others try to pretend they are going to sort things.....round and round it goes
RadicalLeft's lap dog media no longer reports news but disseminates misinformation ie propaganda tool ! ABC apologizes for mistaking Kentucky gun range video for Turkish bombing of Syria FoxNews
maggieNYT A ceasefire that would be totally unnecessary if his boss realDonaldTrump had not made arguably the greatest strategic military blunder in US history.
Now we know meaning of the term unmitigated Gall. All these men are an embarrassment to America. They will not be allowed to gloss over the facts of what Trump did.He authorized killing people including children. He allowed our Soldiers to be humiliated while the World watched
Why? Erdogan will travel to Russia 🇷🇺 to meet Don Putin. This administration is a joke and innocent lives are being lost. Hope Americans lives will not be lost because of the consequences of this fools.
maggieNYT A ceasefire to an action Trump green lighted. This blew up in their face
I was about to wish something bad would happen, but God said don’t be ugly.
maggieNYT To shut that stable door?
Why wiuld antone listen ro them?🤔
maggieNYT Rudy go with them this time? 😉
maggieNYT Keep 'em
Trump starts the conflict to stroke Erdogan’s ego and then sends Pence in to end it. 😂
You are a little too late! Your leader caused this mess!!
Laurel and Hardy heading out, believing this is a trip to eat turkey.
Too little, too late
Considering that they set this in motion, why do they think that they ought to get any credit for trying to stop it.
So they have to go clean up trumps mess while asking for favors I’m sure
maggieNYT more circus
They have certinaly done a bang up job in ukraine and turkey already, why not give them another shot?!?!
maggieNYT I think this is a good time for realDonaldTrump to remember that Turkey had the audio of the KhashoggiMurder in the Saudi embassy damn straight they have the phone call taped of Trump selling out the Kurds and US respect.
maggieNYT Is mother going!!
maggieNYT Hopefully they're defecting to Russia. Good riddance.
They’re going to pick up the check.
Here they are
maggieNYT
maggieNYT Screwed it up and now trying to fix it with probably some back handing deals..your agenda the whole time....after you'll tell the American people 'look, we put an end to the conflict and not only that acquired great business deals'..more shame
maggieNYT This fills me with zero hope for a resolution that’s fair to the Kurds.
VP Make sure you sanction all Trump properties in Turkey, as he is profiting from genocide of the Kurds.
You can't hide the truth
maggieNYT What's in their luggage? Shredded democracy? The keys to America? More weapons?
maggieNYT That is a waste of jet fuel
maggieNYT The Kabuki Theatre continues
maggieNYT What, Jared's not going? Thought he was the great Mideast peace negotiator...
maggieNYT Was it not possible to do this work *before* taking actions that precipitated a war that necessitates this work?
Will they be staying at the not one, but two Trump towers in Istanbul?
maggieNYT After the trip is over that will be changed to surrender talks.
The real ceasefire will be when Trump is out of office. I just hope he doesn’t burn up the entire Constitution before then.
maggieNYT This is not the stoplight game.
Create a crisis then try to solve it is the new definition of stupidity hypocrisy corruption WagTheDog ImpeachAndRemove
Pence and pompeo ? 🤥🤣👀
maggieNYT Would they just admit they ARE turkeys And we get actual adults of integrity redeploying the US military to protect the Kurds.
maggieNYT Aka “Clean up on aisle two”
NO NEED FOR THESE RELIGIOUS CLOWNS TO TALK WITH TRUKEY ,ONLY THE RUSSIANS CAN TALK TO TURKEY NOW , THESE TRUMP CLOWNS FIRST STABBED THE KURDS IN THEIR BACK AND AFTER THEY INVITED TURKEY TO GO IN TO SYRIA, THEY TRY TO STABB TURKEY ECONOMICLY IN THEIR BACK!?WHAT A RELIGIOUS JOKERS!
maggieNYT tRump starts a huge fire and it's burning down the barn and the horses and cows are screaming. He sends Pence and Pompeo to walk by and throw a bucket of water on it. Only these are our Allies and their children he's burning.
maggieNYT Why? Ergodan has already said he's not talking to them or negotiating a cease-fire. And it's too late for all the people Trump's impulse has gotten killed ...
Oh we re in such great hands then
Neither the Syrians nor the Turks like the Kurds, prob never will...so how long should we have stayed? Forever?
Waste of taxpayer dollars. Trump gave Turkey the green light. Nothing the US can do about it now. Damage is done ISIS is freed and America won’t ever be trusted again for what they did to the Kurds. ImpeachDonaldTrumpNOW
Pence needed an excuse to stay at another Trump property.
maggieNYT CaptainBoneSpurs has golf to play this weekend?
maggieNYT Can't Pence save the airfare and just pray?
Seems like that's a lot more expensive a way to go than just saying no to Erdogan on the phone when Trump had him on the phone. Was that insufficiently challenging?
maggieNYT Someone is not very good at foreign policy. 🤡
Lmfao Trump's sending that cotton ball WTH for? Damn Trump always making other people do his dirty work.
“Ceasefire” talks that weren’t needed if realDonaldTrump wasn’t a suckerwho sold out our country.
How many bags of cash?
'Cleanup on aisle Turkey!'
They don’t want to talk to terrorists ... WHERE ARE THEY REALLY GOING?
nobody cares
