President Donald Trump took to Twitter Thursday with an extensive defense of his decision to withdraw U.S. forces from Syria, framing it as a campaign promise kept amid growing bipartisan backlash from lawmakers.
"Does the USA want to be the Policeman of the Middle East, getting NOTHING but spending precious lives and trillions of dollars protecting others who, in almost all cases, do not appreciate what we are doing?" Trump tweeted. "Do we want to be there forever?"
The president also claimed in a separate tweet that "Russia, Iran, Syria & many others are not happy about the U.S. leaving."
As the American leaves, the area will calm down dramatically. Just a thought.
