President Trump and his family have long had business ties in and with Turkey, the most visible example being the Trump Towers Istanbul, which licenses the Trump name.

from both Republicans and Democrats in Congress, raised alarm bells among America’s allies across the globe and sent the Pentagon and the State Department scrambling to contain the fallout.

The president has denied that the U.S. is abandoning the Kurds, tweeting on Tuesday that,"we may be in the process of leaving Syria, but in no way have we abandoned the Kurds, who are special people and wonderful fighters.

And the fact that Trump made his decision to pull the U.S. troops out of Syria shortly after the phone call with Erdogan has raised alarm bells from policymakers, as well as government ethics watchdog groups who have long seen Trump’s extensive business interests as a potential area for conflicts of interest.

That “transactional” charge is based on the Trump family’s multitude of continuing business entities and interests, all separated from the president — at least on paper — by the trust that now controls them. But the president is the beneficiary of that trust and two of his children have roles in it.

Too bad we can’t see the transcript of that midnight call too. DumpTrump2020 ResignNowTrump

LOL!! Here we go again!!!!

Trump betrayed our ally The Kurds to benefit from his Trump Tower in Turkey! realDonaldTrump betrays you now or later, it’s just a matter of time! Trump has always been only for Trump; if you don’t learn from History, then you suffer the consequences!

Ewww...to think someone would actually PAY MONEY to have THAT scummy name on their building. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Our President is a criminal.

They dont have ties like the Bidens do to Ukraine. That's for sure.

No corruption to see here folks, move along.

Imagine what is not visible 🤷‍♂️

Yawn

Using the office for personal gain by strong-arming a foreign leader into investigating a political opponent?Wait... Oh! Presidential Impeachment Bingo!!! Once again Trump does something he’s falsely accused Obama for & once again we hear crickets from his base Hypocrickets

Didn’t Trump get $17 million from Turkey because of his hotel in Istanbul?

This is the biased media at work. They don’t want people looking at the real story about QuidProJoe so they constantly try to push Trump has ties. Weak media

DOES ANYONE STAY THERE

Got it, you thought he was a Russian agent but now discover that he is actually a Turkish shill doing what is best for the US. Fascinating stuff.

Turkey is a member of NATO

And he has in the past inflicted serious sanctions on Turkey and has said he will cripple the country if they go after the Kurds.

The claim is Trump is pulling troops out of Syria because of the licensing fee from a tower in Istanbul.

Waaait a second, are you suggesting Trump is putting his profits over the country? Shocking.

Doesn’t care about 🇺🇸 this is all about his business interests. Wake up America! UnfitToBePresident

Never wacthing your morning show until matt lauer is locked up.

Being a private equity real estate developer, Trump has gotten legal protection for his business dealings overseas. They're not subject to the scrutiny of the Patriot Act.

Yup ... no conflict of interest here folks ...

So Istanbul has a nice hotel

WTF cares what he did when he WASNT President. Get over yourselves already.

What's worse, entering into wars or staying out of them because of business interests? This is a real conundrum!

LockThemAllUp

no kidding duh

Maybe Trump Tower Constantinople soon.

So.....Jimmy Carter sold peanuts to Turkey.....

Again a wonderful example of the corruption of this President & his family!

Yes, lets talk about the family and his kids since he brought up Biden's son.
