Possible Trump motives

1) Protecting income flow from Trump Towers Istanbul

2) Payoff to Turkey to cover up recording of Khashoggi murder by Trump allies

3) Obeisance to Putin

4) Warning to House: if you impeach me, Ill burn every American alliance and interest before I go

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

you conveniently left out. 5th possible motive, that the mission was to fight ISIS there, with the kurds,, and we won, and thus is trump fulfilling an explicit promise to avoid endless wars.

if there’s an issue with turkey, why does that only fall in us? why can’t the UN help out? why does the UN exist, anyway?
