    Not sure that has much, if any, credibility, Margot.

    Trump has handed the Kurds over to their worst enemy.

    Even Lindsey Graham is raging.

    Analysis: President Trump hands over northern Syria to Turkey
    https://abcnews.go.com/International/analysis-president-trump-hands-northern-syria...
    For Donald Trump to hand the fate of Syria's Kurds over to their sworn enemy Turkey not only represents a major disservice to the people who did more to defeat ISIS in Syria than anyone else, but it also sends an ominous message to any group who would ever consider allying themselves to the United States in the future.

    It's fun to watch Schiff trigger Trump.

    No question that politics is entertaining. I'm sad that it has no other value.

    Well, no other POTUS has drawn the crabs like Tweeter Trump. He reaps what he sows.

    Schiff was witnessing at an impeachment hearing, Trump was dealing with reporters, giving them what they wanted.

    60% sure Trump was trolling people with that wording.

    But he's the type of person that you simply can't be sure that he is. His megalomania is such that he could easily mean it.

    And honestly, even if he is trolling, why? Why would we ever want a president that is trolling people?

    Because a sense of humor is a sign of intelligence.

    Perhaps a bit strange but this tweet was only slowly picked up on MSM. And on this forum. (Considering the content. On the crazy dictator scale it ranks at 1.)
    Trump can tweet about fake news and media being the enemy of the people all he wants. But those tweets are, in a way, his own fantasies. Fake news and media being enemy of the people have failed. People never believed it, or will believe it because Trump has NEVER followed up on these threats. Nor will he.
    Otherwise, three years on, free speech in the states would have been shut down by now and Trump's (media) enemies ''handled like in the old days''...

    This Turkey tweet might actually be the first time Trump associated an outright threat with real life events. (Ongoing war in Syria.)
    So who knows what he might do next.
    You could say Trump spoke like a politician. (But one on steroids, of course.)

    Which is exactly why this tweet made slow headlines. We've heard it all before from other dictators.

    Even trying to sound like a big boy, instead of whining baby, Trump still failed to catch attention.

    Nobody believes him. He's a burned out b#ll sh#tter.

    I think it is hilarious. I'm so sick of politicians taking themselves so seriously, when they are all a bunch of clowns on both sides of the aisle. Nice to have someone with a sense of humor in office.

    How do you conclude the left is a greater threat to you or your freedoms than the inept, narcissistic troglodyte in the Oval Office? With Trump using his office & its powers to enrich himself & bend foreign leaders to investigate his political opponents (never been done in American history) & report to him, thus decreasing the power of your vote or mine in elections, Trump seems to me to be America's greatest threat. Now he's decided to abandon our most loyal & longest lasting friends & fellow combatants in the Middle East to their fate under threat from the Turkish military. No nation watching this will ever feel confident taking the word or friendship of America in the future. Trump is not making America great again. He's destroying everything about America that others around the world admired us for. Trump is devastating America.

    You look at that and please explain how the Clintons and their phony foundation get a free pass. How does Hillary bleach bit evidence , smash her cell phones with a damn hammer and nobody on your side cares. But god forbid trump wants to investigate the bidens . He is the criminal , are you kidding me? 3 years of rissian collusion BS , nobody on trumps team were charged. No americans were charged ! So tell me why would you think trump should be charged or impeached yet these anti American dems get away with their corrupt BS ? WHY?

    There are a half dozen reputable sources if you care to choose another.
