WASHINGTON—Democrats and Republicans in Congress rarely agree, but that changed dramatically on Oct. 7 after President Donald Trump decided to withdraw U.S. troops from Syria, while allowing Turkey to move into the war-torn country and abandoning Kurdish forces that helped defeat ISIS.
“The Syrian Kurds stood with the United States in the fight against ISIS, and this president just betrayed them in a tweet,” said Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), who is the ranking minority member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
