"Russian mercenaries give video tour of abandoned US base... A Russian propaganda coup"



Jennifer Griffin ✔ @JenGriffinFNC

Russian mercenaries give video tour of abandoned US base in Northern Syria, laughing at the hasty US retreat, showing unfinished meals on dining tables and heavy military equipment left behind. A Russian propaganda coup.

Dion Nissenbaum ✔ @DionNissenbaum

Russian video tour of abandoned US base in Syria shows detritus left behind by American forces: Coke, chips, footballs, a basketball court and more:

My father was USMC for 32 years - Iwo Jima, Korea - I’m glad he’s not here to see this, OMG

This should be required viewing at every US military installation in the world, then maybe people will see that “OUR TROOPS” mean shit to cadet bone spurs

Yeah,

motherfucker

Nothing makes them happier than an upset liberal.

They have abandoned their allegiance to American and American principles. This is what we are up against and there are 62 million of them.

Do take a moment while they indulge their mirth to ask them if they're happy with the way Trump is cutting and running. Weren't Republicans really, really concerned about that once upon a time? You know, the cut and run thing? Didn't Princess Dumbass of the Northwoods have a lot of fun repeating that to her nitwit fans?

mock the USA. I see it as directed at shithole and what capitating to Putin looks like and how sane Americans will see it as shithole's failure.
