NoCalMike Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 When I first read that tweet I assumed it was fake. I am not sure why I even question the validity of his tweets anymore, but even still, on almost a daily basis, I sometimes fail to grasp who we're dealing with.

visionary Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Republicans are pissed. Way too many tweets (including a ton by Graham) to post them all, but here’s a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 So, the GOP will actively assist Trump in bullying a foreign government into helping the GOP win an election. But withdrawing from a war which we claim we won years ago, well, that's too far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatBuzz Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Tomorrow Graham and Rubio will be tweeting what a great idea this withdrawal is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 how dare they question don's great and unmatched wisdom if they're not careful, don and stevie and billybarr may have lindsey and marco hung for treason as an example to any goper who dare criticize him on anything which would then put me in that extremely uncomfortable position of finding even a pile of vile debris like don can be right about some things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Also wondering. 1) Maybe this discussion belongs more in the Syria thread than the Trump cabinet one? 2) I admit, I haven't been paying attention, here. (A common confession on my part.) What's Turkey's motive, here? Have the Kurds been attacking Turkey? (I could see that happening. Them deciding that all these weapons we've given them means they can liberate the Turkish Kurds. But has it been happening? Or is Turkey simply afraid that it might, in the future?) Is Turkey defending itself? Or conducting a preemptive strike against a bunch of uppity minorities who might give oppressed Turks ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkey views the formation of an independent Kurdish state in this part of Syria as likely escalating the Kurdish separatist movement within its own borders.

NoCalMike Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 And this is the guy the "majority of the military" supports? Why again? Weird how the first resistance to Trump by his lapdogs is when it comes to something military-related. They know in their hearts there is an unqualified fool in the white house, and his actions are costing lives. How many are too many for them to keep going along with his idiocy?

This worry of theirs seems a lot less legitimate years after the Kurdish forces took over the area. Right now it looks a lot more like a land grab and an excuse to kill Kurds.

The US Department of Justice intends to go to court to argue that the POTUS is immune from even being investigated for violating criminal law. Can the AG be impeached for that?

NoCalMike Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 This Turkey-Syria stuff is reiterating the point I made (probably 100 pages ago at least now) that the problem with a know-nothing person in the white house is that they are in charge of foreign policy decisions. It is one thing for someone not to be an expert on every single conflict going on around the world, but does anyone think Trump has ever had a single though on some of these regions, conflicts, wars, situations etc etc etc.....outside of a single generic tweet over the years? What in Trump's resume leading up to the election gave anyone any confidence what so ever that he would be a sound mind on foreign policy? Dude can fake knowing about some things, but it he is getting played by foreign leaders left and right because they all know how stupid the guy is. It's painfully obvious. He has zero business making these kinds of decisions and/or negotiating. He is in way over his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
