Menendez: Trump ‘Suggested That The Kurds Are Communists’
breitbart.com ^ | 16 Oct 2019

On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” Senate Foreign Relations Committee Ranking Member Robert Menendez (D-NJ) stated that during a White House meeting, President Trump “suggested that the Kurds are Communists, and therefore, all you Democrats must be very happy with that.”

Menendez said, “Well, the president came in and he was in a belligerent state from the beginning. He smacked down a whole bunch of papers on the table and said, you all asked for this meeting, I reluctantly agreed to it.

Hell even i knew a segment was communist even though i GREATLY was against what Trump did

And STILL those that agreed with him don’t address the fact that MANY ISIS members are escaping.

And BACK WHEN you guys gave a #### that they slaughtered Christians.

Do you not now?

And even Trump said he MOVED troops around over there.

That win’t withdrawing.

AND SPEAKING OF WITHDRAWING WTF ARE WE DOING sending 2000 TROOPS to Saudi Arabia, those who generously supported the terrorist who killed 3000 Americans.

AND if it was such a good move, why did Trump have to make that long statement of the penalties against Turkey if they didn’t stop wholesale slaughter.

Was it REALLY A SHOCK TO HIM that they were gonna do that?

It’s what they do!!

Ataturk is DEAD.

I’ll get nasty responses or weak responses.

I don’t mind.

This was a wrong move.

And it’s a shame disagreeing with Trump on something even if you love him is akin to a HANGIN crime around here now.

Remember when conservatives used to have independent thought and not a herd mentality?

that’s what made us different and better.

Well it’s heading for the exit.

Let’s just agree to disagree on this.

They are surrounded on all sides by Kurds, Turks and Syrians.

This was a wrong move.

Why? Do you want Assad out of power? The Kurds are now supported by Syrian forces and Russian troops are patrolling the border.

You prefer if it was American troops? Why?

Turkey is attacking the PKK (Kurdistan Workers’ Party) whose goal is to create “an independent Communist state” in Turkish territory.

This is why Obama supported the Kurds and the democrats are now having a meltdown.

But why the hell are republicans siding with the Kurds? Maybe it’s true that neocons are all closet communists.

answer this...where does this all end??...you are not gonna stop every bombing in the world...American soldiers are still getting killed in Afghanistan..19 years later!!!!..this is insane. Whats the end game..the plan. There is no plan. There are “terror” groups in probably every country on Earth. The original plan after 9-11 was to destroy terror groups of “GLOBAL REACH”!!!...HIGHLY ORGANIZED AND ABLE TO PULL OFF SPECTACULAR ATTACKS....that’s been done. Now , if the USA doesn’t put troops in every nation, they scream “ANOTHER 9-11”..meanwhile, it just goes on and on. ENOUGH!!...

So he was in a bellicose mood today. I would be too. It is about time the smug rat bastards got some of their own medicine.

If they want war with Turkey to defend a Syrian Dictator who has gassed his own people they can jolly well go ahead and declare it on their own. See what happens.

Go ahead and vote on impeachment as well. See where that gets them. But they won’t because they are just wanna be bullies and bullies are cowards.

They can all go pack sand and take the 129 maggot republicans who voted with them against the President today on Syria. Kevin Brady of Conroe, Texas. What a cowardly stupid excuse for a Texan.

It’s not a hangin’ crime. It’s just that when you oppose our champion, you are throwing in with those with whom we are in a tooth and nail fight to the death over ideology.

It is all ideology all the time these days. Trump is doing our heavy lifting. Who else is? I see no one.

Maybe they should vote to declare war first. Perhaps they did I don’t remember them doing that. The media and politicians are trying their damnedest but Americans don’t care what happens in Syria. Iran, Venezuela. We shouldn’t be interested in Ukraine and Hong Kong. I do like how the Democrats are the pro war party now.

OK, I agree we disagree.

Know what? None of what we think matters anyway. We are just pawns at this point.

There was actually a contingent of Antifa members that went to fight with the Kurds. They thought the Kurds had a great vision of what they look at as utopia.

Muslim Maoists: They slit your throat with the communal scimitar, comrade kafir.
