You and your sidekick, TRT, should worry about your own opinions and stop attributing opinions to me that I don't hold.

I am all for withdrawing from Afghanistan, although I don't believe in announcing our plans in public.

I strongly disagree with Trump's decision to withdraw from Syria, but he is our president and foreign policy is his job, not the responsibility of the U.S. Senate. This is just another example of what a cancer McConnell is within the body of the Republican Party.

Zowie!! Other than your delusions about me and Jet, this post is right on. I wasn't happy with that decision either. In fact I have stated in the past that for us to give up bases strategically beneficial to this land is wrong. Not only are the dollars spent, but our dependable presence in those places instills trust, and therefore the flow of intel, plus our presence in these places gives much needed training opportunities for our troops. And that is the very short list.

Further, one of Trump's campaign no-no's was announcing military plans and decisions to our enemies. I didn't like that one bit either.

McConnell evidently forgot the day Dems ran over both houses to ram thru ObamaCare. The 60 rule did absolutely nada in that case, and once Dems are in control again we'll see much more of the same.
