Discussion: Trump Shrugs Off US Role In Syria: We Won't Be 'Policeman Of The Middle East'

Pretty certain you wanted to get out of Afghanistan as well.

So which moves benefit Putin?

Leaving Syria? check.
Staying in Afghanistan and slowly bleeding us dry? check.

Hmmm, there’s a pattern forming here…

“…now they will have to fight ISIS and others, who they hate, without us.”

Who’s left to fight? I thought Trump defeated ISIS just yesterday.

Yes - contrary to Trump’s tweet (which is the default position), Putin is quite pleased with this action: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/putin-warns-expiration-of-nuclear-arms-control-pact-would-be-bad-for-humanity/2018/12/20/f9d51136-0391-11e9-958c-0a601226ff6b_story.html?utm_term=.72ca89e68412&wpisrc=al_world__alert-world--alert-politics&wpmk=1

"Time for others to finally fight…"

Oh look! It’s the draft dodger’s motto!

That all may go down smooth as honey with his redneck base but meanwhile, over at ISIS HQ, they see it for what it is.

It’s not just the media saying that Russia is happy you are getting out. It’s also everyone in the diplomatic corps, the pentagon, and probably one or two of your fellow republican traitors/senators as well. But you keep on being you.
