      You can support bringing troops back home from an unauthorized war in Syria while also agreeing that Trump is doing it for the wrong reasons and in the wrong way.

      What are these "wrong reasons," and why do they matter if the outcome is desirable?

      Sigh. Because some of us are bothered if a president uses foreign policy to distract from domestic crisis and corruption. And because some of us think there are plenty of unanswered questions about Trump’s ties to Russia. And because this isn’t how you run a government.

      What's your evidence for this withdrawal being the product of some corrupt Russian deal, other than typical frenzied media speculation? Are you aware Trump expressed reticence about long-term military commitment in Syria all throughout the 2016 campaign?

          are you aware that Trump is a serial liar? Do you follow the news headlines? Do you not wonder: why Syria now, why Afghanistan now?Are you really so naive that you believe Trump really doesn’t like Middle East wars when he’s ramping up for a monumental conflict with Iran? Sigh.

          You say there are “wrong reasons” afoot, but can’t name them or provide evidence for them. You make a procedural complaint (“this isn’t how you run a government”) without acknowledging that following established protocols is how these wars got so entrenched in the first place.

          If President AOC had made this exact move, Mehdi would be showering praises on her and heralding her as an unqualified courageous genius. This is just reflexive anti-Trumpism.

          trump had a phone call the day before with erdogan. the next day he pulls out. he is abandoning our kurdish allies and enabling genocide. not to mention using a political stunt to distract from his foundation being shut down for blaring, undisputed, corruption

          You're dealing with hypocrisy. They certainly would think any means justify the ends if it meant removing Trump before his term is up
