    Trump is free to blame Obama for creating the situation he inherited much as Bush created it for Obama, but Obama owns what he did on his watch the same way Trump owns what he's done and what he will do on his. Again, live in the present man.

    What-abouts make for crappy rebuttals. And I've never voted for a Clinton.

    Thank you for your honest appraisal. I agree, Trump should have tried to hammer out some sort of agreement BEFORE pulling the troops in such a haphazard manner.

    There’s either some sock puppetry going on or someone(s) confused. Could be me I suppose.

    Well it does seem to give historical precedence to our Head of State to be a lifelong civilian with no military background. Never? That's great and you had to fight the temptation three times too. I too am strong willed and never voted for one of them either.

    Obama would likely have sent a perfectly worded but ineffective letter which would have met with Jimmy Kimmel's approval. These leftist idiots continue to publicly embarrass themselves and only one things is certain- they'll do it again.

    Why is the United States trying to fix what France and even the British have to share some blame when exactly 100 years ago, France and England balkanized the entire Middle East ?

    As long as the Middle East is balkanized, everyone in the Middle East are the bad guys.

    Lessons never learned, diversity never works.

    It's not a cease fire. It's a surrender.
    But lets see what the Kurds do after their time is up.

    Do you think Trump did this to win a peace prize?

    As apposed to a poorly worded one that went straight in the trash. The only reason anything got done was the adults entered the room and made the children settle down.
    And I’ll save you wasting a comeback, Trump was not one of the adults.

    They won't say it, but I suspect deep down they realize how wrong they are and that Trump isn't going anywhere until 2025.

    Carpe diem, huh? The middle east doesn't live in the now. What happened in previous -recent-administrations holds a great deal of importance to what's going on today.

    Trump did it to protect the profits of his properties in Istanbul. Blood for Bucks is the Trump family crest.

    Yeah...I've seen it. There are some idiots on this forum comparing this latest ceasfire deal with the deal Chamberlain made with Hitler. Ignorant fools. Those loonies are blinded by hatred for Trump.

    Romney is always pissed off at someone.

    But he always moves on after complaining until the next time he gets pissed off like when CNN in collusion with President Obama during the second presidential debate in 2012 intervened in behave of Obama when Candy Crowley helped to cover up an Obama lie, basically helping Obama to get reelected.

    Dudes - it's a five day cease-fire and the Trump FanBoys are acting like Trump walked on water ... never mentioning the fact that Trump threw the match on the gasoline in the first place.

    Another weird-ass day in the land of Trump.

    Let them fight in the sand. We should avoid such regions and with our new energy independence we don't have to be there at all.

    Perhaps lives will be saved during the next five days. Are you okay with that?

    All Trump had to do was to go to the Kurds FIRST and tell them he planned a pull out and they needed to start preparing and negotiating BEFORE the assault began. It's not so much that he withdrew the troops, it the dick-headed way he did it. Guy gets a wild-hair up his ass and starts spraying the room like a two month old with diarrhea.
