A tweet is not an actual order to the Pentagon. Trump may tweet how he wants troops home by Christmas.

Of course, no matter what the president or any official says, the NYT will always frame it in the worst possible way.

How is Trump’s Syria withdrawal coming along? The military brass pretty much ignored that order.
