It looks like Putin is calling in all his chips

Let's not pretend the context in which these decisions are made doesn't matter. Unilateral withdrawal with no consultation with Congress, the Pentagon, our partners in the region and under the cloud of Russian interference is alarming (or should be for the honest observer)

We're in it now, I'm not opposed to a draw down but it needs to be managed sanely by a competent admin.
I'll give you that. It's just Trump been on this 'America 1st' shit since when Bush was in office and he was talking shit about Iraq and Afghanistan. Who knows with Trump? This the same guy could have got run out of the republican race by going to SC and talking shit about the Iraq war. It's clear that Trump has been against this type of bullshit for years, but it's also the Russian shit hanging around.

Yeah, Like you, I'm not opposed to withdrawing. Trump doing it does concern me. I've been opposed to Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria and so on, but to have Trump being the one doing this is just a problem because of 1) russia and 2) people morphing opinions just to be opposite of Trump.
 
Trump is finally starting to get it. Most of Washington hates his guts and won't do a thing to help out, no matter the mission.

Might as well go it alone and push his constitutional authority to the limits and then some, trusting the deplorables to have his back
