Rand Paul: Kurdish “Ingrates” Should Be Thanking Us

ABC News reports:

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul joined ABC News’ “Powerhouse Politics” podcast, saying the Kurds are acting like ‘ingrates’ in disrespecting U.S. troops.

With President Donald Trump facing an eruption of dissatisfaction inside his own party over his military policy regarding Syria, Paul has emerged as a fierce defender of the idea that the U.S. has the right to wind down on “endless wars.”

With images of Kurdish forces seen hurling potatoes at American troops leaving northern Syria, Paul said the Kurds should be more grateful for the opportunities and resources the U.S. troops provided for them.
