President defended his decision to remove troops in Syria and said the US can use its base in Iraq to hit the terrorists.
President Trump took time meeting the troops and also signed at least one Make America Great Again hat at the Iraqi base.
One soldier told the Commander in Chief, “I cam back into the military because of you.”
President Trump responded, “And I am here because of you.”
Powerful moment – Member of United States Army told the President he came back into the military because of him. And President Trump responded, “And I am here because of you.” I met him after and he gave me the patch from his arm. Incredible. #TrumpTroopsVisit pic.twitter.com/WmQf3b2K8X
