Why anyone would expect trump to behave honorably, or even sanely, at this point is crazy in itself. No ally is going to trust us not to betray them. Trump has largely squandered the goodwill this country has amassed, and for nothing but his own impulsive ego. His supporters bear full responsibility.
The callous inhumanity of Trump leaves me aghast. What Erdogan is doing amounts to war crimes; people are dying because of Trump’s withdrawal. Trump doesn’t care. He just makes pathetic jokes and patently false claims.
“Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.”
The Constitution doesn’t define “Enemies”, but I would argue that any organization or group which has sworn to destroy the United States — and ISIS has sworn to destroy all non-ISIS authorities, but principally and especially the U.S. — qualifies. And Trump’s pullout has most certainly given ISIS “Aid and Comfort”.
Compared to that, the Ukraine scandal and even emoluments are “small fish”. Trump’s impeachment should include a charge of Treason, for which he should then be tried and convicted… and maybe even hung.
Even when Trump is out of office it’s going to be some time before another country or ethnic group in a repressed country will consider an alliance with us.

DT has really got blood on his hands now. Big time ethnic cleansing.
But there are good people on both sides.

You most likely got a bullet in you for being the best ally in the Isis fight. Thank the trumpster for this.

Sun Tzu’s “The Art of War” must be required reading for ALL politicians. There need to be a better way to help the Kurds.

And what were his words? The area had to be “cleaned out.” Might as well have said “cleansed.”

I thought all they got was losing their homes, land, and lives in a bloody genocide. All because they believed Trump and his lies.

They didn’t get a T shirt Bob. They got a meh cartoonist to use them for some $$ who will then donate to the GOP to do it again.

They didn’t just get a T-shirt. Benedict Donald hand-painted a bulls-eye on the back.

US Constitution, Article III, Section 3. begins:
“Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.”
The Constitution doesn’t define “Enemies”, but I would argue that any organization or group which has sworn to destroy the United States — and ISIS has sworn to destroy all non-ISIS authorities, but principally and especially the U.S. — qualifies.

You are one of the lucky ones then.. Most of your kin will get a bullet in the back as they are forced to run away.
halvincobbes Premium Member over 4 years ago
I don’t see how you can equate a t-shirt with genocide. But also, ISIS was not defeated in the first place.

He took the shirt back.
After all, they were well paid, and knew what they were getting into..

“Defeat”? It was just a set-back as far as I can tell. Because “our” pee-resident gave it away.

I’ll bet they didn’t even get a T-shirt….

Come on Gorrell, be honest. The t-shirt should say “… all we got was a bullet to the head”!

By the way, Trump wants the shirts back.
