Scarborough Suggests Syria Pullout Is Because Putin Has Something on Trump

‘This is foreign policy welfare for Vladimir Putin’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: "That is a very high bar to get over. If you look, Mika, at who is helped here, it’s a pretty simple list. ISIS is helped. My God, once again, retreat in the Middle East, Barack Obama and the United States, 70 percent of Americans wanted us to get out of Iran, it created a vacuum. ISIS went right into that vacuum. Then President Obama started in the last year fighting back and pushing back and put them back on their heels, Donald Trump continued that. But here we have ISIS, as the 'Wall Street Journal' says, not defeated. So this is a big day for them. Iran — I thought Donald Trump saw the Iranians as an enemy. I mean, I thought that was almost the centerpiece of his foreign policy. This is massive news, good news for the Iranians. And finally, who is happier about this than Vladimir Putin on the world stage? Absolutely nobody. This is a giveaway. This is foreign policy welfare for Vladimir Putin. He can’t even believe his luck. Or, I’m sorry, maybe he can. Maybe this is connected to something none of us know about."
