As far as Turkey's concerned, we already have:
Turkey attacks Kurds, SDF in Iraq, Syria as U.S. withdraws https://t.co/NZSQbh0I7p— Rick Wilson (@TheRickWilson) October 7, 2019
But Trump said this earlier:
As I have stated strongly before, and just to reiterate, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I’ve done before!). They must, with Europe and others, watch over...— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 7, 2019
So the NYT assures us Trump is already sending "mixed signals":
Breaking News: President Trump sent conflicting signals about his Syria plans after his vow to pull out was denounced by top Republicans, including Mitch McConnell https://t.co/6LrMhm4zMj— The New York Times (@nytimes) October 7, 2019
Or is it just Trump being Trump, and nobody knows what he means, least of all Trump? No, no! Can't speculate that way! Trump must have some reason for what he's doing, other than he got rolled by Erdogan and now he's bullshitting the country because that's what spineless cowards do.

See? Nothing to worry about. Remain calm. All is well.

Maybe Sean will explain the genius of this abandonment to us.
