So if we should lose lives for Syria, why is Trump OK with losing lives in Afghanistan?

I believe that'll be next. If you recall, Trump talked about doing that a year ago, but backed off after an angry Senate GOP response. That was in the middle of the Mueller witch hunt and Trump may have wanted not to ruffle too many feathers. Now that he is going to succeed in Syria, I predict he will feel emboldened to revisit the Afghan quagmire.

That context makes sense. So he planned to leave Afghanistan but that fell apart? Good point.

My belief also. The screaming from the media, K Street and the Pentagon will be deafening.
