Erdogan says won't forget letter: "When the time comes necessary steps will be taken"



Jon Sopel ✔ @BBCJonSopel

Wow. #Erdogan tells news conference the letter sent by @realDonaldTrump telling him not to be a ‘tough guy’ wasn’t in line with diplomatic or political customs. He said they wouldn’t forget the lack of respect. “When the time comes necessary steps will be taken”

A ridiculous letter. A HUGE gaff. But, you know what? Along with everything else (Mulvaney, Meltdown, Doral), this will be soon forgotten.

How dare other heads of state interfere with or question his goals? Who the Hell does Erdogan think he is?

or they are jockeying who's going to be the head dictator/don. It's a crime syndicate. Russia got a foothold in the Middle East.

and no one will remember that Trump started the vendetta.

And his response was so mafioso. "No one disrespects us."

to have kiss Erdogan's ass now, and Putin's ass.

tRump wants to be in the dictators club, that is why he gave the "greenlight" to Erdogan to kill Kurds, to show Erdogan and Russia that he can turn on allies to get in the dictators club.

Plus just listening to Randi Rhodes she played Senator Schumer talking to Joe Scarborough and he is said there was no plan/policy for ISIS criminals. They keep on saying at the meeting on Wednesday Syria and Turkey would monitor ISIS, is that making us safe??? I don't think so.

There is no fucking plan. How's that going to make Americans feel safer, along with other countries. This idiot boy has to go. He just does not care about the welfare of Americans.
