Not quite unbelievable, but leaning in that direction.

Goes along with the push to eliminate child labor laws.

Thanks for offering the EXTREME other side.

And now the Kurds are turning to Damascus and Moscow for help with the Turkish invasion

And he justifies sending 1,800 troops to Saudi Arabia to protect their oil fields because they are paying "us."

It’s nice to see Americans stand up to fascists. That will be you in your home town soon, all because of who you picked to lead you. I suggest you keep your hands up any time you are out in public. Also bob and weave. 

No one respects you enough to find you offensive.

When asked why he is sending troops to Saudi Arabia Trump noted that they are paying us three times without once actually answer why sending those troops is necessary:

So we’re sending more troops to Saudi Arabia.  Saudi Arabia is a very good ally, from the standpoint that we get along with them very well — a very important player in the Middle East.  The relationship has been very good.  And they buy hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth of merchandise from us, not only military equipment.  In military equipment, about $110 billion.  It’s millions of jobs.

Now, with that being said, we are sending troops and other things to the Middle East to help Saudi Arabia.  But are you ready?  Saudi Arabia, at my request, has agreed to pay us for everything we’re doing.  That’s a first.

But Saudi Arabia — and other countries, too, now — but Saudi Arabia has agreed to pay us for everything we’re doing to help them.  And we appreciate that.

So you have heard...

It is widely reported as fact that the Kurds have entered into an agreement with Assad's forces, and that those forces are amassing at the Turkish border.

If you have information that contradicts this widely reported fact, post it.

No one should condone or tacitly accept violence of any kind, including that against people who you disagree with politically.

That includes the "president" who has yet to comment some 24 hours after that repulsive film was reported on.

I'm not sure that Kid even knows who the players are, is aware that Assad's regime is backed by Russia, or has any capacity for following actual news reports.   His rejoinder to Oilcan has lent credence to the theory that Twitter is largely a zombification protocol.

Reading Trump's tweets, certainly.  Recent ones make so clear he has no clue what is going on: 

Assad is our enemy, so why would we protect him from Turkey?  But then, if he wants to defend the Kurds who we still support, great.  Which means he will be fighting with a NATO ally of ours, which is...also great?  Turkey and the Kurds should just be able to fight it out among themselves.  Oh and by the way we are slapping economic sanctions on Turkey for fighting!

“They trusted us and we broke that trust,” one Army officer who has worked alongside the Kurds in northern Syria said last week in a telephone interview. “It’s a stain on the American conscience.”

“I’m ashamed,” said another officer who had also served in northern Syria...

Good piece on how the US fought side-by-side with the SDF.  Not only against ISIS but also against Russia backed Syrian forces.

Now, huh, the guy Russia helped elect and will work to elect again in 2020, is pulling those troops out.

Warning:  If you are pissed off about the US stabbing its allies in the back (and you should be) then this isn't going to make you feel better:

Thinking back on how the Trumpists here thought Trump's strength was going to end up being foreign policy.

And that was based on his "negotiations" with North Korea.

I'd lol if it wasn't so fucking sad.
