Can anyone make sense of President Donald Trump's Syria policy, other than Donald Trump?
Not much will bring senior Republicans to push back against Trump, but his decision to pull American forces out of Syria has drawn condemnation from three grandees of the GOP: Sen. Lindsey Graham, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley.
And for good reason: Pulling the 1,000 or so American forces out of Syria makes no sense.
Those troops are not there on a combat mission but only in an advisory role...
