NEW DETAIL per three sources: Trump said several times in mtg he wasn't concerned about terrorists 7,000 miles away. After Pelosi & Hoyer left, @RepLizCheney spoke up to remind Trump that the terrorists responsible for 9/11 "came from 7,000 miles away" themselves.

LATEST: Democrats walk out of Syria meeting with Trump, saying he was insulting and went on a ‘nasty diatribe’ w/ @seungminkim https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-tries-to-distance-us-from-chaos-in-syria-says-kurdish-allies-are-no-angels/2019/10/16/7b6c5ac8-f037-11e9-b2da-606ba1ef30e3_story.html …

When Liz Cheney has to correct you, you're officially the dumbest person in the room...

1. I think the walk out was exactly the right action at exactly the right time -

no progress would have been made. Trump can't hear beyond his own thoughts.

2. He's forgotten all the scaremongering about terrorists going to Mexico to get into the U.S?

3. Then why send 2300 U.S. troops to Saudi?

And why send millions of aid to Israel?

Why give attention and consideration to Kim Jung Un?

And why visit China's leader Xi?

Why not let the Saudi's and Israel "fight it out for themselves" as he suggested the besieged Kurds do with the Turks in Syria? As Kurdish men, women, and children are being slaughtered as they flee.

The Kurds were our ALLIES who lost many in the fight against ISIS. TRump called them "No angels" but that's exactly who they were, you dumb asshole.

And why then did we loose thousands of American lives fighting in Iraq, you miserable p.o.s.!

The man is the biggest self-serving, morally empty, grifting moron in our nation's capital.

5. Exactly

There's no reason we should be sending aid to Saudi. Except that tRump is getting played again, and hoping to get something for himself.

We've spent tons of money and troops fighting along side the Kurds against ISIS. Now, we're right back where we started. Does tRump really think ISIS will stay right there in Syria? That they would never attack us here, in this country?

[Duppers]

6. Indeed.

TRump knows *nothing* of U.S. struggles of the last 20yrs in the ME.

4. The Russiapublicans were jealous that they couldn't walk the fuck out. nt
