Trump: "We're making the Kurds look like they're angels." He claims again "they opened up a couple doors to make us look as bad as possible," which, again, US officials say is false. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "If you look at the Kurds, and again I say this with great respect: they're no angels. If you look at PKK -- take a look at PKK. ISIS respects PKK. You know why? Because they're as tougher, or tougher, than ISIS." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump, asked about Lindsey Graham's criticisms of his Syria decisions, says the people of South Carolina want Graham to be spending his time investigating James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok and Obama, not doing this. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump asked about giving a "green light" to Erdogan: "I didn't give him a green light." He says he gave "just the opposite of a green light." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump, speaking beside the president of Italy, says "the word is" that "Italy may have been one of" the countries used corruptly by anti-Trump American intelligence officials in the 2016 election. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump says of the 2016 election: "It was a corrupt election." He says he thinks the corruption "goes right up to President Obama." There is no evidence of this. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump wrongly describes the highly flawed study that alleged Google bias might've cost him millions of votes, saying the study said he lost 2 million or more votes "because of Facebook." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump notes that even people on his side want to keep fighting in Syria, and he claims, "I say, 'Why are we fighting?' 'I don't know.' They don't even know." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump says he knows the "exact number" of countries where the US has a military presence, "many, many countries," but he won't say the number "because it's so foolish." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump: "Hopefully ISIS will be guarded." He says he spoke to a wonderful general "from the Kurds" and said, "Listen, don't open those doors and let them out just to create more havoc...because some of those doors were just opened." There's no evidence of this, US officials say. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump retells his Sir story about allegedly being told by a general that the US has "no ammunition." (The US had ammunition, though some shortages of certain bombs.) He claims to have "totally" updated the nuclear arsenal (which experts say is basically unchanged so far). — PolitiTweet.org

Trump on the Syria-Turkey situation: "It's not too complicated if you're smart," but it is "semi-complicated." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "The PKK, which is a part of the Kurds...is probably worse at terror, more of a terrorist threat in many ways, than ISIS." (?) — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "If Russia's going to help in protecting the Kurds, that's a good thing, not a bad thing." He says, "are we supposed to fight a NATO member?" — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump: "Why are we protecting Syria's land? Assad's not a friend of ours. Why are we protecting their land? And Syria also has a relationship with the Kurds, who by the way are no angels. OK? Who is an angel? There aren't too many around." — PolitiTweet.org

Asked if Erdogan's decisions surprised him, and if not whether he'd make the same decision to remove US forces, Trump says he wasn't surprised "at all" because "he's wanted to do that for a long time." He says "it's sort of natural for them" to be "warring." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s most frequent false claim last week was the same as the week before: he said 11 times that the very accurate whistleblower was very inaccurate. It was hard to pick a most egregious one this week. There were so many candidates. https://t.co/AFShP9M14H — PolitiTweet.org

Trump made 129 false claims last week, the most in the three months I’ve been counting at CNN with @tarasubramaniam — 24 about his Ukraine call, 24 about the military, one about needing ID for groceries. This took a painfully long time please read/share: https://t.co/AFShP9M14H — PolitiTweet.org

Trump says of the alleged imbalance in the US trading relationship with Europe: "I could solve the problem instantly, but it would be too harsh, too harsh." He says it'd involve tariffs, and he wants to try to fix things without those. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump complains of NATO countries not meeting their 2%-of-GDP spending guideline, including Italy. He says we learned today about Italy's plan to purchase 90 military planes from the US. We knew that in 2016. — PolitiTweet.org

While reading a text that mentions Christopher Columbus (he's with the president of Italy), Trump ad-libs, "To me, it will always be called Columbus Day. Some people don't like that. I do." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump said that, because the Soviet Union got involved in Afghanistan, it had to do "a very big downsizing" and is now called Russia. (Historians say Trump overstates the role of the Afghanistan war in the dissolution, but for now let us focus on "a very big downsizing.") — PolitiTweet.org

Trump said he had thought the family of the UK teen wanted to meet the woman who killed their son, but now knows they only want to do it in the UK. (They declined to meet her yesterday at the White House, and they didn't expect her to be in the next room.) https://t.co/Hu0aV7OvGn — PolitiTweet.org
