Vice President Mike Pence said that a cease-fire has been reached between Turkey and Kurdish forces in Syria.

The move comes after Pence and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo met with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.

“Today I'm proud to report, thanks to the strong leadership of President Donald Trump and the strong relationship between President Erdoğan and Turkey and the United States of America, that today the United States and Turkey have agreed to a cease-fire in Syria,” Pence said.

“The letter that Pelosi refused to read?”

Yes, and ain’t she the TOTAL FOOL today?

Indeed, those House Pubbies who voted against OUR PRESIDENT TRUMP yesterday look every bit as bad.

Imagine the GREAT DALLAS RALLY tonight.

Is this the same letter?

“Berman then turned to Jim Acosta, CNN’s White House correspondent, and Trump antagonist extraordinaire, and sneeringly said: “We have this letter with this language that isn’t exactly at Ph.D. level.”

Funny, it seemed to work. Maybe Erdogan doesn’t have a Ph.D.

The letter:

THE WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON

October 9, 2019

His Excellency
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
President of the Republic of Turkey
Ankara

Dear Mr. President:

Let's work out a good deal! You don't want to be responsible for slaughtering thousands of people, and I don't want to be responsible for destroying the Turkish economy — and I will. I've already given you a little sample with respect to Pastor Brunson.

I have worked hard to solve some of your problems. Don't let the world down. You can make a great deal. General Mazloum is willing to negotiate with you, and he is willing to make concessions that they would never have made in the past. I am confidentially enclosing a copy of his letter to me, just received.

History will look upon you favorably if you get this done the right and humane way. It will look upon you forever as the devil if good things don't happen. Don't be a tough guy. Don't be a fool!

I will call you later.

Sincerely,

[Signed Donald J. Trump]

It isnt a complete win for Erdogan either and Iran just lost their land bridge to hez-Ebola and the Med. The Kurds don’t get a country either. Assad is going to lose a 20 mile wide strip of land to whomever administers it (I am hoping the GCC to stand them up as a ME peace keeping force.) Quite a few (a majority) of House GOP are left with their peckers in their hands as well. For the Russians it is same old same old.

Overall a piece of higher level thinking willed into place with the Trumpster and those that voted for him in the House and us, the US population the clear winners.
