Donald Trump has continued America’s proud tradition of betraying its allies once they are no longer useful. US forces are already pulling out of Kurd-controlled northern Syria, along the Turkish border, where Turks are already mobilizing to move in against them. The Turks have always considered Kurds as terrorists and separatists, and without the American presence, will be vulnerable to Turkish reprisals.
Yes, these are the same Kurds who fought alongside us against ISIS, they are probably our only friends in the region. Well, except for the Saudis, that is. The Kurds may have not bought our jets and frigates, but at least they sent their infantry into places we feared to tread. They now join the Bay of Pigs Cubans and the South Vietnamese…and of course, the Ukranians.
Oh, and one more thing. The Kurds are Muslims. I don’t think Trump is going to let them take refuge in the US.

I can see now how Trump made all his money.
