Rice: We’re Abandoning the Kurds Because Erdogan Promised Trump Something

‘It’s a me-first foreign policy’

RUSH EXCERPT:

It’s a me-first foreign policy. the United States — the United States of America had an understanding with the Kurds, which he has honored for two and a half years. And, yes, it began under President Obama. We worked with the Kurds. They did the fighting, in effect, for us, to take out ISIS. Now we have turned around because Donald Trump woke up on the wrong side of the bed, or President Erdogan of Turkey promised him something— and I’m actually really curious to know what it was— in order for him to sell these guys out without consulting anybody on his national security team.”
