Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) attacked President Donald Trump’s proposal to withdraw remaining U.S. troops from Syria, tweeting Tuesday that a pullout could have “catastrophic consequences.”

Ocasio-Cortez’s stance is a complete reversal of her earlier position on the war in Syria and other “endless wars” overseas.

She ran in 2018 on a pledge to end the war in Syria and elsewhere: “Alexandria believes that we must end the “forever war” by bringing our troops home, and ending the air strikes that perpetuate the cycle of terrorism throughout the world,” her 2018 campaign website said:

Ask her to lay out her reasoning.

That should be fun.

If Trump walked on water across the Potomac AOC would claim Trump can’t swim.

Her tweets, like most everything she writes or says, are scripts written for her by her handlers, the Justice Democrats.

Ya reckon her IQ breaks 90?

“Ask her to lay out her reasoning.”

Actually, a lot of bartenders have high IQ’s, needed to keep all the different mixes in their heads - like quarterbacks memorizing and deploying plays under pressure.

AOC isn’t one of them.

If she is against it, it must be the right thing to do.

If President Trump cured cancer, AOC would accuse him of being against chemotherapy.

The same day AOC wants US prisons eliminated,
ISIS does the same.

Is AOC working with ISIS to eliminate the prisons in Syria?
or does she just serve the same operatives/agents?

Stick to your expertise in bartending.

The pullout probably will have catastrophic consequences.
Not pulling out will have catastrophic consequences too.
Sometimes every option has bad outcomes.
Eventually you have to decide which bad outcome you’re most willing to live with.
Saving our troops & money is looking pretty good at this point.
We’ve done a lot to protect the Kurds; at some point they have to achieve a stable position, which perpetual war isn’t.
Offer them $X in weapons, and $X in plane tickets & moving vans.

Sorry, Kurds, we’re not willing to start WWIII over your neighborhood grievances.

She’s not even a liberal, she’s a war-seeking idiot, like virtually every other Dem Rat except Tulsi Gabbard.

Unless we want to take on Iran, Iraq, Syria and Turkey to help the Kurds get their own country, there is no reason to stay.
