Trump: US to 'devastate Turkey economically' if it attacks Syrian Kurds
[DW] In a Tweet on Sunday, President Donald Trump...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... threatened a harsh response against ...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire.... if it attacked US-allied Kurds in Syria. Ankara has pledged to eliminate Kurdish forces, which they consider terrorists. US President Donald Trump has warned Turkey that it risks economic retaliation by the United States if it attacks Syrian Kurdish forces after the withdrawal of US troops from Syria. "Will devastate Turkey economically if they hit Kurds," Trump wrote in a Tweet late on Sunday, without elaborating. Trump's comments follow  ... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey...'s pledge to take action against the YPG, which Turkey considers a terrorist organization linked to the outlawed Kurdish Workers' Party (PKK) within Turkey. The president also called for the creation of a 20-mile (30-kilometer) safe zone in Syria and said he did not want US-allied Syrian Kurdish People's Protection Units, or YPG, to seek any confrontation with Ankara.
