Found this posted on another board. And I support President Trump 100% for doing it. Let everyone else worry about and flip the bill for policing the world. We need to focus on America for a while.
Trump: Let Russia, China or ‘Napoleon Bonaparte’ protect Kurds

“Some people want the United States to protect the 7,000 mile away Border of Syria, presided over by Bashar al-Assad, our enemy...
“I would much rather focus on our Southern Border which abuts and is part of the United States of America. And by the way, numbers are way down and the WALL is being built!” the president continued.
President Trump on Monday continued to defend his decision to withdraw from northern Syria, tweeting that someone else could protect the Kurds, such as Russia, China — or even Napoleon.
“After defeating 100% of the ISIS Caliphate, I largely moved our troops out of Syria. Let Syria and Assad protect the Kurds and fight Turkey for their own land. I said to my Generals, why should we be fighting for Syria and Assad to protect the land of our enemy? Anyone who wants to assist Syria in protecting the Kurds is good with me, whether it is Russia, China, or Napoleon Bonaparte. I hope they all do great, we are 7,000 miles away!” the commander-in-chief wrote at 3:10 p.m.
It was part of a daylong series of tweets that included comments on Syria, impeachment and former spokesman Sean Spicer’s appearance on “Dancing With the Stars.”
“Some people want the United States to protect the 7,000 mile away Border of Syria, presided over by Bashar al-Assad, our enemy. At the same time, Syria and whoever they chose to help, wants naturally to protect the Kurds,” he wrote minutes later.
“I would much rather focus on our Southern Border which abuts and is part of the United States of America. And by the way, numbers are way down and the WALL is being built!” the president continued.
Trump’s tweets came as US troops were scrambling for Syria’s exits while the administration threatened economic penalties against Turkey for an invasion that opened the door to a resurgence of ISIS.
The Turks began attacks in Syria against the Kurds, longtime US battlefield allies against ISIS, after Trump declared US troops would stay out of the fight.
American troops consolidated their positions in northern Syria on Monday and prepared to evacuate equipment in advance of a full withdrawal as Turkish forces pressed an offensive against the Kurds, a US defense official said.
The preparations, triggered by Trump’s decision Saturday to expand a limited troop pullout into a complete withdrawal, came as Trump’s national security team considered imposing what he called “big sanctions” on NATO ally Turkey.
Trump has faced criticism from Democrats and Republicans alike for what they called the abandonment of a key ally in the fight against ISIS.
Napoleon Bonaparte was an 18th-century-born French statesman and military leader who gained fame during the French Revolutionary Wars from about 1792 to 1802.
(How defective is the American school system that they have to explain who Napoleon was? Good gravy.)
