Sen. Chris Murphy: Why are Republicans upset about the Kurds? Clearly, Trump's not "serious"

Link to tweet

Chris Murphy
@ChrisMurphyCT

I don’t know why so many Republicans are so bent of of shape by Trump’s statement about doublecrossing the Kurds.

Clearly, he’s not “serious”.

It’s the media’s fault for believing anything he says is the policy of the United States, right?

Right?

For instance, Trump telling China to investigate Biden--the Republicans were all saying that Trump was not serious.

We need this in "irony".

Rubio hasn't said that, yet, but he might as well.

I mean, they have brown skin, and they don't have any oil or power.

Now that the entire Republican party is beholden to TrumPutin, I'd have thought they'd abandoned every principle they ever purported to have by now. Why even pretend to give a shit about anyone who isn't rich, white and born in the Yew-Ass-of-Aye!
