President-elect Trump reacted Sunday morning to the news that Syrian dictator Bashar Assad had fled Syria after rebels stormed the capital city of Damascus.
"Assad is gone," Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social. "He has fled his country. His protector, Russia, Russia, Russia, led by Vladimir Putin, was not interested in protecting him any longer. There was no reason for Russia to be there in the first place. They lost all interest in Syria because of Ukraine, where close to 600,000 Russian soldiers lay wounded or dead, in a war that should never have started, and could go on forever."
"Russia and Iran are in a weakened state right now, one because of Ukraine and a bad economy, the other because of Israel and its fighting success," his post continued. "Likewise, Zelenskyy and Ukraine would like to make a deal and stop the madness. They have ridiculously lost 400,000 soldiers, and many more civilians. There should be an immediate ceasefire and negotiations should begin."
Trump added: "Too many lives are being so needlessly wasted, too many families destroyed, and if it keeps going, it can turn into something much bigger, and far worse. I know Vladimir well. This is his time to act. China can help. The World is waiting!"

After leading with President Trump's remarks, the article slides into MSM propaganda in an attempt to conflate MSM credibility with President Trump's credibility with Legacy Mainstream Americans.
Trump already was well aware Putin didn’t like Assad at all.
Assad was merely a customer to Vlad.
Trump doesn’t sound like the Hitler that most of media insisted that he is (see Tagline).
True that.
I have less respect or concern for Western MSM than you.
What has “Like” got to do with it?
Assad was like Saddam who we supported for many years.
Both are the same type of leader with the same ideology and political party etc: Ba’athist.
Pres. Trump says russia has lost 600,000 soldiers
Yet Russia still claims only “53,000”
Pres. Trump knows Russia is lying and, like he says, “weakened”
So Russia isn’t as strong as it claims
Both are the same type of leader with the same ideology and political party etc: Ba’athist.
If we did not intervene in Iraq, it's likely that Iraq would have a similar fate to Libya or Syria.
Saddam may have been able to hold on to power. But the Iraqi people will overthrow his sons.
A dictatorship is not sustainable in the long run.
More secular Suni Ba’thist leaders.
First things first.
Turkey now does not have to deal with any adversary in Syria to move troops to Israel.
Turkey now has the muslim brotherhood in power in Syria.
As far as Russian naval assets on gge coast of Syria, the new Syrian rulers will take the money and leave the Russians alone.
The world now has to deal with a radical Muslim government supported by Isis.
The Turkish leader IS the muslim brotherhood.
Is that also true for our Saudi Arabia, Jordan???
More democray junk.
Assad had the US, Turks, Kurds, and Israelis, bearing down on him and exploiting internal differences and locals that see this as their chance to rise to power.
I wonder if the rebels will find the Iraqui missing weapons of mass destruction we couldn’t find in Iraq.
"Don't drop that s___!"
The average Muslim and Arab aren’t into that democracy thing.
That’s you continuously projecting your (christian, Euro/American) value system on other cultures.
They want a benevolent dictator.
They want a benevolent dictator.
Ditto for Russians.
To be fair, the Israelis were only involved is Syria to the extent that is was a transit point and staging area for Tehran’s hezbollah. I can recall no counter-Assad strikes by Israel in Syria. Israel did pound the daylights out of weapons depots, transit points, and landing fields for weapons for hezbollah.
But Assad himself was no threat to Israel, and was left alone.
According to my reading of the news over decades.
That’s true, but it is a long and indefensible supply line from Istanbul to the Golan.
“They want a benevolent dictator.”
But they’ll get a ruthless kleptocratic, as usual.
