No Lindsey, you are wrong.
Giving billions of taxpayer money to Iran to finance terrorism is an Obama like move.

Arming, financing and training ISIS is an Obama like move.

Supporting the Muslim Brotherhood is an Obama like move.

Giving guns to the Mexican drug cartels is an Obama like move.

Giving American military secrets to the Chinese communists is an Obama type move.

Putting traitors in charge of the NSA, FBI and CIA is an Obama like move.

I totally agree detective. Damn! when will people wake up and realize the Demonrat party and it’s leaders are running this country into the abyss of no country or freedom at all.........but like the rest of the socialistis/globalists sewer????? Dear God help us.......

all the neocons are out and about …

19 Dec: ABC: President Trump’s troop withdrawal from Syria a ‘huge’ mistake: Senator Lindsey Graham
By Jessica Hopper; ABC News’ Luis Martinez, Elizabeth McLaughlin and Mariam Khan contributed to this report.
The Republican senator from South Carolina first blasted Trump on Twitter, writing that the withdrawal of the roughly 2,000 U.S. troops in Syria “would be a huge Obama-like mistake.”...
“An American withdrawal at this time would be a big win for ISIS, Iran, Bashar al Assad of Syria, and Russia. I fear it will lead to devastating consequences for our nation, the region, and throughout the world.”...
Graham tweeted that declaring victory over ISIS is premature: “With all due respect, ISIS is not defeated in Syria, Iraq, and after just returning from visiting there—certainly not Afghanistan.”...
In the halls of the Senate, Graham told ABC News he will be meeting with Defense Secretary James Mattis and called for a hearing on the decision. In another jab at Trump, he said that foreign policy can’t be determined over a tweet...

He was one of several senators who expressed their discontent to Vice President Mike Pence at a Republican luncheon.
Senator Susan Collins of Maine told reporters that they had a “lengthy” discussion about the decision to pull troops out of Syria.
Senator Bob Corker, who is the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and a frequent critic of the president, headed to the White House this afternoon to talk to Trump about Syria.
The senator from Tennessee told reporters that he thought Trump just “woke up” and made the decision.
Earlier today, Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., pushed back on the president’s declaration of victory over ISIS, tweeting, “This is simply not true.”
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio told ABC News that Trump’s advisers did him a “terrible disservice.”
“This is a colossal, in my mind, mistake. A grave error. This is going to have significant repercussions in the years and months to come,” Rubio said...

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul said he supported the president’s decision...

left/right - they are all acting up:

20 Dec: Guardian: Martin Chulov: Has Isis been defeated in Syria, as Trump claims?
But the Trump move to withdraw troops from the region is a blatant betrayal that will leave the US searching for a new partner if it ever intends to return to finish the fight...
Walking away now is a remarkable gift for Isis, whose leaders can say they saw off the Americans and their allies...
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/dec/19/has-isis-been-defeated-in-syria-as-trump-claims

Military Times: Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and other top military officials tried to discourage Trump from ordering the withdrawal, saying it was a bad idea and would risk ceding control of Syria to Iran and Russia or give the Islamic State a chance to regroup, according to the New York Times.
The Pentagon initially declined to confirm the media reports, issuing an earlier statement Wednesday morning that made no mention of withdrawal.

once more, the President is on his own. ironic given Michael Flynn’s opinion in 2015:

10 Aug 2015: RealClearPolitics: Former DIA Chief Michael Flynn Says Rise Of ISIS Was A “Willful Decision” Of US Government
In an interview with Mehdi Hasan of al Jazeera, former director of the Defense Intelligence Agency Michael Flynn says that the decision to arm opposition to Syria’s Bashar al-Assad went forward despite warnings that those weapons might fall into radical hands. Flynn says it was a “willful decision” by the Obama administration.

HASAN: You are basically saying that even in government at the time you knew these groups were around, you saw this analysis, and you were arguing against it, but who wasn’t listening?

FLYNN: I think the administration.

HASAN: So the administration turned a blind eye to your analysis?

FLYNN: I don’t know that they turned a blind eye, I think it was a decision. I think it was a willful decision.

HASAN: A willful decision to support an insurgency that had Salafists, Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood?

FLYNN: It was a willful decision to do what they’re doing...

and the FakeNewsMSM went along with the whole pretense of fighting ISIS while Obama was President!

GOP Establishment won’t defend America’s borders but can’t spend enough on foreign interventions.
