No, he just acted on the agreement made by his predecessor.

Which, TBH, I also think Donald did for nefarious reasons, but it was still a net positive to end that atrocious war.

So are you saying "even a broken clock is right twice a day" type of thing? One thing that comes to mind is scrapping the TPP, which would've sucked, but he got rid of it because it was an Obama thing, so he did the right thing but for the wrong reason.

I'm fairly confident that Trump will never get the NPP under any circumstances, but then again the world has gotten so batshit crazy that I'm waiting for aliens to land at this point.

Sort of.

The weird thing about Donald is that we sometimes get good things out of him but for completely wrong reasons, and as someone who is anti-war, the withdrawals from Syria and Afghanistan stick out for me.
