Turkey's Erdogan 'threw Trump's Syria letter in bin' - BBC News
told.

In the letter dated 9 October, and sent after US troops were pulled out of Syria, Mr Trump told Mr Erdogan: "Don't be a tough guy. Don't be a fool!"

President Trump was urging Turkey not to launch a military offensive against Kurdish-led forces in northern Syria, but Mr Erdogan ignored this request.2E7EB96B-AC38-4330-A6A0-D67FF48335ED.jpg
"Let's work out a good deal! You don't want to be responsible for slaughtering thousands of people, and I don't want to be responsible for destroying the Turkish economy - and I will.

"History will look upon you favourably if you get this done the right and humane way. It will look upon you forever as the devil if good things don't happen."

1. No surprise that President Erdogan threw the letter in the trash.

2. No doubt many other world "leaders" do the same all the time.

3. Many world "leaders" have discovered during the last three years that President Trump is all hat, no cattle.

4. A President of the United States of America should say/write little, but when s/he does, s/he should back up the those words with "vigorous" action.

a. In other words, whenever a world "leader" receives a telephone call/letter from an American president, that world "leader" should be shaking in his/her boots.

b. Human beings understand only one thing: Action.

Is anyone surprised? I mean, really? Hell, even the Trump panty sniffers that post here have not defended that letter.

This man, Donald Trump, is destroying everything that every previous President and every citizen of this country fought for to make this country great for the last 240+ plus years. A single Presidency will destroy this amazing country.

True, but it's been a long time coming.

This guy has so thoroughly wrecked the office of the Presidency that I honestly have no idea how the next President is going to rebuild it. It will take two full terms (or even two full, separate administrations) to rebuild our stature on the world stage via “soft diplomacy.”

Last month I believed that a Democrat could enter office and the rest of the world could exhale, telling itself that the last four years were just a bad dream. But after Trump’s Syria decision, I don’t believe that anymore.

And right after he did that, Trump slapped him upside the head with sanctions and a promise of more to come. Then Erdogan said, "Oh, ****!!" begged Trump to call him about negotiations.

Trump is what happens when you give a trailer park hillbilly money.

We are now a joke on the world stage - and nobody is laughing harder than Putin.

That letter reads like a personal tweet.

It reeks of desperation. It says, "I made a mistake", "please don't do what you have been wanting to do since I became President.
What can I give you? What can I do for you? Anything, just don't make it obvious to the world that I have no idea what I am doing"

Democrat amateur armchair foreign policy 'geniuses' want Trump removed from office because they think he is stupid and making bad decisions. Democrat armchair amateur self-exalting 'diplomats' are stupid and make bad decisions.

You just made that up. Have you been taking creative writing classes?

The White House released the letter because they were proud of it!

Lindsey Graham, that crazy Democrat.

I like how your best defense is to just make things up.

Yeah, Trump had spent his career bullying people into submission. He had the money and the lawyers to keep people in place and used aggressive threats and lawsuits against anyone that he considered a threat. He's tried to bring up the mob-like bullying tactics to the Oval Office. But it doesn't work that well against other leaders and governments.

Mostly, he's just making us all look the fool. It's rather embarrassing, despite the fact that Trumpeteers and the cultists will continue to defend this sort of behavior. But you can bet your bottom dollar that had Obama did this same thing, those same cultists would be going crazy.

Proper filing of a letter in the right place is a necessary office skill.
