Trump makes 'insane' suggestion Kurds are deliberately freeing Isis prisoners, after hundreds escape

US president suggests former allies he abandoned are trying to ‘get us involved’

Donald Trump has made the apparently baseless suggestion that Kurdish forces have deliberately been releasing Isis prisoners who are reported to have escaped during Turkey’s offensive in Syria.

As part of his latest in a string of attacks on Fox News – a network that has consistently been supportive of the president – the former reality show presenter attempted to defend himself over widespread criticism of his decision to withdraw US troops, clearing the way for the Turkish attacks.

Hundreds of Isis militants and affiliates reportedly escaped from facilities during shelling over the weekend, and Mr Trump said ”Europe had a chance to get their ISIS prisoners, but didn’t want the cost”.

4. Can this man be so obtuse that he can't piece it together that the Kurds

are going to prioritize and do their best to defend their own people?

Trump blew up whatever contract they had as allies. Whatever happens next is on Trump's shoulders.

5. Talk about a Spin!

Assad will turn on the Kurds,watch and see. Turkey will go full on Genocide on the Kurd's living in their country.

Mean While,we have two Air Bases in Turkey and Trump gets to keep his operations agreement in place in Istanbul.

6. How ungrateful of them.

7. Couldn't we have airlifted those prisoners to Gitmo?

I thought that was the whole point of maintaining our gulag, to house people like ISIS?
