WASHINGTON (AP) — In a bipartisan rebuke to President Donald Trump, the Senate has voted 68-23 to advance an amendment that would oppose withdrawal of U.S. troops from Syria and Afghanistan.

Good luck with that
So the CiC has no power to do this? For a dictator, this president has very little power.
The pubs smell blood, other wise they wouldn’t have agreed to this charade. President Trump needs some big wins to slap the Chihuahuas back in line.
I think a good SOTU followed by some creative fence financing should just about do it.
I’m wonder about RINOs Thune and Rounds of Sd
And the GOP thinks I’m ever going to give them a dime?
Count on the Repubs to stab the President in the back. The man has few friends in that shat hole of Washington.
Scumbags all.
$5.9 trillion wasted on trying to bring “democracy” to sub-human savages. Should have nuked them on 09/12/2001.
It’s not that they smell blood, it’s that they are the Warmongers of the MIC.
For them, war is good for business. It’s as simple as that.
How High should our national debt be raised to pay for the world police job?
Why isn’t China taking on the role of world police? They have tons of surplus dollars from trade surpluses for decades. Instead China is busy buying mines, oil fields, farm land, buildings, all over the world. China learned from Japan to not buy expensive golf courses or Hollywood studio’s. China only buys what makes profit and gives a return on investment.
While US is spending Billions to keep Syria & Afghanistan stable.
pure ignorance here...an amendment to what ?
Disappointed. Again.
the PEOPLE back the ELECTED PRESIDENT
and not the lying RINOs/DNC/Slavers who
imposed RomneyCARE -— but not on themselves,
and left it in place. as is their way.
Follow McTurdles $$$$.
The globalists are DEEEEP down in his pockets.
POTUS vetos their stupid bill. And they know he will, so it why do it?
Because they want to make a statement. Funny, Republicans never bothered to ‘make statements’ when Obama was ready with a veto.
I called McConnell’s office today, and actually/shockingly got through to a staffer.....boy did they get an earful.
Midge’s treason is what I’d expect from PeLOUSY or REAL LEADER Schumer, but not this nancy boy Midge.
