Trump is just doing what he does best.
Depantsing two-faced mealy-mouthed politicians.

The Iraqi Parliament engaged in some virtue signaling by demanding that we leave.

Trump called their bluff by responding “OK, we’ll leave.”

Now hours of fun and entertainment will ensue as Iraqi politicians furiously try to flip-flop and walk this back.

I have to believe these officials don't want Iran to come in and take all their bounty.

Almost half the Iraqi parliament was prevented from voting. The other half was warned to vote this way. Even with that he voted a non-biding resolution.

the Iraqi parliament right now is no better than Venezula’s. IF we were already in Venezuela would we leave if Maduro’s handpicked parliament said to?
