Donnie "Diapers" knowledge of history is mainly what he gets from watching 'action movies'. Trumpy is a big fan of action films.Unfortunately, this is typical of the overall population, whose knowledge of history is largely what they've picked up from television, and cinema.

What the Fek! I suppose they didn't do much at the Little Big Horn either come to think of it.
In fact, where was Khurdistan during the American invasion of Texas aye?
Perhaps the Kurds will ask, where was the USA when the Macedonians invaded?
Hold him up to the light, not a brain in sight!

Come to think of it, I don't the Kurds helped us out during the Civil War or the American Revolution either.

I see a real problem with his talk is that the constant branding of others and those who are investigating him will be self defeating. Witch hunts, kangaroo courts and such is the same tactics used by Saddam, Milosevic, Nazis at the Nuremberg trial and others. They all said the accusers had to authority to try them. Where did that get them; a noose (preferably a nice long red one). But the problem is as more and more information is found of his corrupt dealings the more time he will spend contracting and the more mistakes (like this one) he will make. Imagine a 2nd term where this will be how the office is run (for 4 looooong years). There will be no letup and things will only get worse as long as he is in this position. He basically has painted himself into a corner.

I watched his insensitive ramblings about the young motorcyclist killed in England and then his ignorant comments about the Kurds and I have great sympathy for the American people who have to tolerate this man.

Very Xian though...visiting the sins of the fathers on the children......

More Americans were killed in their civil wars than in World war two. American would all be speaking with southern accents if the North didn't win that war.

War solves nothing.

Turkey was nominally neutral in WW2 and far from helping the allies was a major supplier of minerals to Germany, chromite in particular which was used in their armament production. It was only late in 1944 that they renounced their neutrality and came over to the Allied side (presumably they saw the way the wind was blowing). In WW1 they were allies of Germany. The Kurds are a people and a region, not a sovereign nation, not therefore able to have been an ally in any of the WWs! This man’s utterings and sheer ignorance is frightening, and dangerous. I read this morning that there is a growing backlash within the Republican Party over these remarks..let’s hope that at last it’s dawning on them that he is a dangerous lunatic.

Oh look
