Column: Don't try to make sense of Trump's Iran policy. He doesn't have one (via latimesopinion)
When Trump announced he was pulling U.S. troops out of Syria last fall, there was no policy development behind it, according to sources familiar with the event. He had a phone conversation with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and made the decision on the fly. Erdogan told him that he had to make way for Turkish troops because NATO allies cannot fight each other.
It’s the difference between long-term investing and day trading. Most presidents try to follow a consistent line of policy, philosophy or both. Trump is a man of dots — scattershot moments connected only by Trump’s authorship of them. He has a few core convictions , a love of praise and a desire to collect disparate “wins” he can use as talking points.
