    The Kurd predicament may become Trump's Albatross ...

    I'm guessing abandoning the Kurds is what accounts
    for Trump's bad polling numbers the media is jubilant
    about. Trump will have to do something, something
    other than threatening Turkey's economy. But what ?
    I'm afraid he dropped himself into this mess and now
    he'll have to find a way to extricate himself - and quickly
    or he'll be fighting a war here at home on two fronts -
    not a good idea with an election coming up.

        You sure about that? Remember how important Congressional oversight was in the aftermath of Benghazi?

          Don't like it. But, will not keep me from voting for Trump. To vote demokrat or not vote at all is just about treason. JMHO. Sincerely. bruce.

            I still remember the sight of our South Vietnamese allies being left to face
            the wrath of the North, clinging to the undercarriage of the last helicopter
            taking off from the rooftop,
            Elephants never forget.

              Then why not vote for a different republican Bruce ?

                  Be interested in your elaboration, because I talk to people of faith, including ordained ministers, who quite literally see Trump as a devil's bargain. The devil, it is known, wants only your soul.

                    Forgive me for being a trifle skeptical about that.

                      No doubt ordained in the Church of the Everlasting Boogie, the only religion that still practices human sacrifice.
