We destroyed ISIS in Syria so why stay there..with Obama, he KNEW ISIS was taking shape but didnt care..he left anyway..Trump went in and dismantled ISIS, they have moved on, to Morocco, Yemen, etc..so what is the point of staying in Syria..because they are dysfunctional, guess what..the majority of the Middle East is dysfunctional, maybe we need to stay there forever..isnt that what Juan McCain once said

My concern about pulling our troops out of Syria is in regard to the Kurds in the north and what might happen to them when we leave. Part of the strength of ISIS in Syria was from somewhat of a proxy status for Turkey who traded with them, armed them, and simply watched as the carnage in Kobane unfolded. Now that ISIS has been marginalized, Erdogan is openly threatening them militarily, and it feels wrong for us to leave knowing what the Turks are likely to do to them.

Syria was doing okay before the West started funding Jihadis, and running a 24/7 propaganda war against Assad.

How many Presidents drive a Honda, and go out w/o security?
Remember the lie, “Assad has fled the country?” when he clearly had not. So many lies.

I am so tired of the “fight them there, so we don’t have to fight them here”

Yeah, cuz Syria, Iraq, Libya,Iran, Yemen were/are just running amok here in the US.
