Donald Trump wants to remove US troops from northern Syria rather than leaving them as "cannon fodder" if fighting broke out between Turkey and Kurdish fighters, Robert F Kennedy Jr said on Wednesday.
Speaking to Tucker Carlson during a live broadcast covering the US presidential election result, the Trump ally, who is expected to play a major role in his government, said the president-elect had expressed his intentions for northern Syria during a plane journey.
"We were talking about the Middle East, and he took a piece of paper and he drew on it [a] map of the Middle East with all the nations on it, which most Americans couldn't do," he told the right-wing broadcaster.
Not only the headlines but even the content of the news now looks like it is written by The Onion now.
Kennedy said Trump told him there were 750,000 troops in Turkey and 250,000 in Syria.
ShowEnchante... Why didn't he fully get out of Syria? Lemme guess, the oil and wheat there?
People can hate Trump for many reasons. But you have to appreciate his honesty
