Trump does know Erdogan is an Islamist theocrat, right?
From you own article
"We are going to take care of this country first, before we worry about everyone else in the world"
Why do people here care about what the hell is going on in Turkey anyways, when he have a mountain of problems to deal with on our own.
Its the same liberal failed policy, worry about everyone else but not ourselves.

If you read the article Trump says he gives the guy credit for being able to turn a friggin coup around. I honestly don't see the issue with such a statement. It certainly doesn't say he suddenly endorses everything that person believes in.
If he had said "I hope the people prevailed" He would have been labeled, anti-democratic.
So no matter what says, its going to be taken out of context and a lie.
The same people criticizing him for this are the ones criticizing him for wanting to revamp nato. Just another failed attempt to be hypocrites really.
Again, you are lying.
Many people have said it was a false flag, as we literally still have no idea why the coup happened.
TRUMP: The coup never took place — the coup was not successful, and based on the fact, and I give great credit to him for being able to turn that around.
SANGER: Erdogan?
TRUMP: Yes, some people say that it was staged. You know that?
SANGER: We’ve heard.
TRUMP: I don’t think so, but I do give great credit to him for turning it around. You know, the first hour, it seemed like it was over. Then all of a sudden, and the amazing thing is the one that won that was the people. They came out on the streets, and the army types didn’t want to drive over them like they did in Tiananmen Square when they sort of drived them

Either way, even if he suported it, Trump is not God. He can be mistaken. On average, however, Trump is correct many more times than Clinton.
BTW Why Obama supported Erdogan, he does not know that Erdogan is an Islamic theocrat?
I think you get what I mean.
EDIT: Also, it could have been a false flag, but also could have been a legitimate coup. We may never know for sure tbh.
Im just going to keep posting this till people accept the facts.

Then all of a sudden, and the amazing thing is the one that won that was the people. They came out on the streets, and the army types didn’t want to drive over them like they did in Tiananmen Square when they sort of drived them over, and that was the end of that. Right? People said, I’m not going to drive over people. The people came out of their homes, and they were not in favor of what the military was doing. So that was quite impressive from the standpoint of existing government. I will say this: I think Turkey can do a lot against ISIS, and I would hope that if I’m dealing with them, they will do much more about ISIS.
SANGER: Erdogan put nearly 50,000 people in jail or suspend them, suspended thousands of teachers, he imprisoned many in the military and the police, he dismissed a lot of the judiciary. Does this worry you? And would you rather deal with a strongman who’s also been a strong ally, or with somebody that’s got a greater appreciation of civil liberties than Mr. Erdogan has? Would you press him to make sure the rule of law applies?
TRUMP: I think right now when it comes to civil liberties, our country has a lot of problems, and I think it’s very hard for us to get involved in other countries when we don’t know what we are doing and we can’t see straight in our own country. We have tremendous problems when you have policemen being shot in the streets, when you have riots, when you have Ferguson.
When you have Baltimore. When you have all of the things that are happening in this country — we have other problems, and I think we have to focus on those problems. When the world looks at how bad the United States is, and then we go and talk about civil liberties, I don’t think we’re a very good messenger.

So Trump is an idiot who doesn't realize Erdogan used a fake coup to set up an Islamic theocracy. And that's obviously what Erdogan did, or did you miss the news of his Night Of Long Knives political purges?
Putin. Kim Jong Il. Now Erdogan. Trump loves authoritarianism apparently.
And he thinks Islamist Theocracy of Turkey is going to HELP us against ISIS? Seriously?,

You can't have it both way, but nice try. Do you even know what you are talking about, you have just been proved wrong over and over dude. Give it up.
Do you have facts it was a conspiracy? If you don't take the conspiracy talk to the conspiracy forum.

Dude you haven't given any evidence of an obvious false flag. Do you or do you not acknowledge this country is no stranger to coups?
You are calling people idiots for not believing something we have no concrete evidence for.

And when you come up with a single legitimate example of the Obamas doing the same thing as the Trumps, then you will find out. Until then, it is nothing more than a veiled attempt to deflect from Trump wrongdoing while simultaneously casting unfounded aspersions at Obama.
