A Turk and an American are fighting each other, but they both end up falling off a cliff. Who wins?

We have slid back into 5.9 lira to dollar, could be minor recovery or dead cat bounce before another collapse
Yeah, but I feel as though, in the long run, America just needs to cut them lose. Erdogan is such a fucking annoying leader, I'm unironically siding with the Americans 100%.

Fuck trump and his Kurdish pets.

Not all of them are me, i don't use proxies or memeflags
>in the long run, America just needs to cut them lose. mutts can't really afford to lose Turkey, in terms of importance to the US they're Japan tier. They're a regional pivot point.
