This is how you know the political left is completely unhinged...

When the “no blood for oil” anti-war liberals suddenly want to keep troops in the Middle East just because Trump is the one to pull them out.

Democrats have no loyalty to any morals, principles, or people. They will change their minds and their word a thousand times if They don’t like the temperature of public perception.

If you vote for them, they will inevitably let you down too.

Yes, I noticed that. Can't say I'm surprised though, you kind of expect stupid from stupid.

@katielass So Republicans who think this move was a mistake are also stupid?

Is anyone allowed to disagree with Trump? Or not because he’s God?

@LeopoldBloom I have to admit that my aim is to attack the hypocrisy of the reaction, not the righteousness of the move, itself.... Which logically can only be determined in retrospect.

@GardenSage Since Turkey began bombing Kurdish positions within an hour of Trump's statement, "retrospect" has already happened.

It's not a binary choice between "withdraw immediately" and "stay there forever."

Lol you sound like a republican from 2008 @LeopoldBloom

GardenSage · 41-45, M

@LeopoldBloom but lol... what about now??? 😂

LeopoldBloom · M

@GardenSage I never said "keep them there forever." I opposed sending troops over there in the first place, but once they're there, we shouldn't abandon our allies who sacrificed so much for us already. Withdrawal should have been on a timetable, with the full knowledge of our allies and our own military leaders, not Trump making a spur of the moment decision after a phone call with Erdogan that we still don't know what the content was.

It was a stupid move, and many conservative Republicans think so, too. And as it turns out, they were sent to Saudi Arabia, so Trump didn't even "bring the boys home."
