It is now being reported that Trump was on the phone with Turkey's dictator, Erdogan, when he decided to withdraw all the troops from Syria.
We know that Trump has a couple of Trump Towers in Istanbul, Turkey. Did Erdogan threaten those business interests? What did they discuss?
Would Trump trade our national interests for his own?
I think you know the answer.

(25,241 posts)You can smell the fact that Trump wants the $5 billion for the wall because he has an angle as to how to get some of that money for himself.
If we knew how he can benefit financially from the wall - we can expose that and end his talk on the wall.
