That's half the story. The other half is trying to get Erdogan to chill on MBS in exchange for abandoning the Kurds, Erdogan's bitter enemy.

Emphasing the fact that Trump is not an ideologue; he is essentially a hustler. He understands the importance of MBS to his game.

It appears that Erdogan has the real goods on MBS.

We should be out of Syria, and Afghanistan as well. Obama promised that we would be out of Afghanistan by some time in 2014. But that isn't the point.

The worst part of this, probably by far the part that should be causing the most concern is that we have allies involved in all these actions. Does anybody think Trump took a nano-second to consider telling any of our allies, much less consulting anyy of our allies? Of course none of us believe Trump feels he has to take anybody into account but himself for any fucking thing.

But here's the other question...how many of us believe that Trump doesn't need to clear anything with, much less warn any of our allies of his unilateral actions? About 46% of us believe he doesn't owe any other world leader, ally or not, a fucking thing.

The asshole 46% of us. Us "Murcuns". We all (OK not all, just those of us who are non-assholes) need to hope we won't need any help dealing with the Russians or the Chinese any time soon.

Ergodan talked the romper room dimwit into it on a phone call. Donny caved, without consulting the experts.

I sure wish our resident dimwit Whell would "defend" his Dear Leader here. I miss the uproarious laughter his posts guaranteed.
