Judge Napolitano: Trump upheld Constitution when he withdrew American troops from Syria
Fox News ^ | October 24 2019 | Matt London

"President Trump acted in the best interest of the Constitution when he withdrew American troops from Syria," said Fox News judicial analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano on Fox Nation.

Earlier this month, Trump decided that 1,000 U.S. troops would be pulled out of northern Syria. The move provided an opportunity for Turkish forces to launch a military assault on the Syrian Kurds in the region, whom the Turkish government considers to the terrorists.

"While it may not be a popular move from both sides of the aisle, with many Republicans and Democrats referring to it as a moral betrayal. The president, legally speaking, was on very solid ground when he pulled back U.S. forces from Syria, of all places," explained Judge Nap on his show "Liberty Files with Judge Andrew Napolitano."

Be quiet, “Judge”.

You have no credibility whatsoever, and nothing that you say matters.

Don’t really care what you think, Judge. You’re wrong 90% of the other time....

“Judge Nap concluded, by saying, ‘Congress can reclaim its constitutional power as the only entity in the federal government constitutionally authorized to declare war.’”

They never will, for the same reason that they will never take their power to legislate back from regulators in the executive branch. The last thing Congress wants is the responsibility of actually governing.

Hey Nap, now you know why you weren’t a candidate...you’re nuts and flip from one side to the other. Like a flea on a hot skillet.

The US troops in Syria were supposed to be there for only 30 days, in an “immergency” (imminent danger and of emergency nature) declared by No. 44. There was NEVER a Congressional authorization for their presence there.

That was not all, the Syrians and even the Russians crossed innumerable “red lines”, and the US troops, if used at all, were purposely used badly.

One thousand men could not stop the Turkish army. So the choice was to deploy 50,000 troops immediately and attack a NATO allie, or withdraw and broker a cease fire.

Trump is no fool, Many Senators and Congressmen are.

Thank God it wasn’t Hillery. She would have just let the thousand men die and blamed it on a video
