Trump's Syria Shocker Endangers US Ally, Enrages Republicans & Democrats
Listen now
Description
President Trump has opened the floodgates in Northern Syria, pulling out the only protection Kurdish fighters there could count on to keep Turkey at bay. Turkey has already taken advantage of it with a huge operation in the region, leading 60,000 civilians to flee. Republicans and Democrats in Congress are outraged by the decision, the Pentagon and State Department advised against it. There is no end in sight for the conflict in Syria, and this gives ISIS room to rise again. These facts leave more questions than answers. SE Cupp is joined by Washington Post columnist Josh Rogin & the Syrian American Council's Bassam Rifai to discuss the political, military and humanitarian fallout.
