Kristol: With Trump betraying Kurds and tweeting America First, will anyone resign in protest?

With the betrayal of the Kurds and Trump's full-on America First tweet storm this morning, is there a single principled internationalist, a single believer in American global leadership somewhere in the Trump Administration who will resign in protest?

".... is there a single principled internationalist, a single believer in American global leadership somewhere in the Trump Administration who will resign in protest?...."

Maybe CrystalMeth didn't get the memo.

Trump is an America First president. He's stated many times that he is the president of America and not president of the world.

Trump is not a globalist like the liberal world is. He's doing what is best for our country before he starts meddling in other countries.

He has plenty of problems right here in America to attend to. The DC Deep State and slimy Swamp creatures alone will keep him busy for years.

If Trump has an "internationalist" in the WH, I would be surprised. It's not what he's about right now.

Yes, the Kurds have helped us in the past because we shared a common enemy.

That being said, is anyone willing to sacrifice even one American life to continue protecting them? If so, whose should be sacrificed?

When the President of the United States does something that causes Bill Kristol to whine like a b!tch, you know he's doing something right.

MAGA.

Not really. It took Trump three years to finally do it. Better late than never but it is hardly heroic.

Arm the Kurds and then leave. But, leave. There is no national interest in keeping troops in Syria.

Principled Internationalists should shoot themselves in the head.

I think anything at all that has to do with Obama’s Arab Spring should be completely undone, with a letter of apology left behind. It’s a shame nothing can be done to repair the destruction of Libya. It just amazes me what occurred over the course of the Obama Administration without a peep of complaint from the entire F’ing world.

Exactly! It’s 50 troops who were supposed to be there very short term! Dear Lord I don’t know how President Trump keeps his cool. The man is graced by God. Pray for him every day!

Hey Kristal, strap on a ruck, get you a gun, and get over there.

You can afford it, and nobody back here needs you.

The Military Industrial Complex was Very upset when President Trump said at his Inauguration.. “I am giving back power to the people.”

Yeah--good for noticing.

I have a conspiracy theory--just think about it....

Suppose that many years ago several intelligence agencies from different countries decided to run a COINTELPRO operation against various leftist parties and organizations in their countries.

Their goal--change the agenda of these organizations through infiltration, bribery, blackmail, the whole bag of spooky tricks and treats.

The new agenda--open borders, LGBT and other deviant "rights", radical environmentalism, and most importantly, support for the surveillance state and elimination of freedom of speech--in other words the key issues of the left we see today.

The leftist organizations would become detached from their old agenda of "worker's rights" and would not longer post a threat to the elites.

Now, back to your regularly scheduled _programming_.... ;-)
