I've feared this guy for a while. I think we should slap sanctions on his country.

Sanctions because you fear him?

Turkey is no where near as “ conservative” as Saudi Arabia, long time US ally.

Turkey is supposed to be founded as secular nation by Ataturk. How would you feel if Trump turned America into theocracy?

The CIA is on the job.
They will be able to activate their agents and cook the turkey when necessary.

Erdogan set the country up to be the Venezuela of the ME.

Sanctions, we just sold them new military jets and have bases. I heard Mark Levine and some other right wing hosts praising Erdogan, weird.

This is not too surprising, sadly.

Islam is simply not compatible with the Western values that most westerners take for granted. But I’ll be labeled “islamophobic” for pointing out that obvious fact.

What a non related response.
#1 we are talking about Turkey.
#2 we are talking about Trump.
Neither of those two are in the article you linked.
