WASHINGTON—Amid backlash for abandoning an ally that has been crucial in the fight against ISIS, President Donald Trump assured the Kurds Wednesday that there will one day be a very nice tree planted in Washington, D.C. commemorating their deaths. “Our Kurdish allies should rest assured that, despite the fact that U.S. troops will no longer provide them with military support, at some point in the future there will be a very good tree with branches, leaves, and bark memorializing their untimely and very brutal demise,” said Trump, promising that even if there wasn’t a plaque or anything denoting that the tree was intended as a tribute to the slaughter of Kurdish fighters and civilians, visitors would probably leave “flowers or little stuffed bears” to let others know that it was a sad tree. “You have my firm commitment that in 30 or 40 years, any tourist who happens to stumble upon the tree in a small park off K Street might think about how you were massacred for a second or two. And even if we forget which tree is actually the Kurd Tree, trust me when I say that it will be there somewhere.” At press time, Trump had given Turkey latitude to launch air strikes on the Kurd Tree if they felt it necessary for their national interest.

BUT WILL IT INCLUDE A PLAQUE WHICH EXPLAINS TRUMP'S BETRAYAL? HOPE SO...

In an attempt to promote bipartisanship, president Trump makes move that representatives on both sides of the aisle can agree is a terrible mistake

frightclubber That is the craziest thing I have ever heard anyone say. Are you sure he said that?

the nicest

Better he plant it along side his beautiful wall with Mexico

And fertilized with Trump manure.

OMG that is hilarious.

Philmoorhouse76 This is Trump's Great America. A Great Treacherous America. A Great Xenophobic America. A Great Misogynistic America. A Great Untrustworthy America. Keep America Great. But please, keep it away from the rest of us.

The 'nicest, bestest, tree' commemorated by Me, the absolute best President the world has ever seen. Heck, I'm even nicer than the damn tree.

Little Miss Muffet Sat on a tuffet, Eating her Kurds and whey; Along came a spider Who sat down beside her And frightened Miss Muffet away

Its good to my people's death and suffering is bring you joy

Hey you're supposed to be a satirical website, not an actual news source

namo_abdulla And he will be a very pretty lady

So you think we should go to war for the Kurds against a NATO ally of 67 years?

History repeats...Just look at how the U.S abandoned South Vietnam...

Love him or hate him, you gotta admit trees are good

TheMindOfColi It wouldn’t surprise me if Trump said this. 🙄

The Kurds should just build a Trump hotel, in fact anyone who doesn't want to get fucked over should build a Trump hotel in their country.

Philmoorhouse76 Betraying an ally, it's something we've all done. On both sides, on both sides.

Trump is god's answer to ''how bad can it really get?''

'And we're going to make Mexico plant it! I mean Turkey, we're gonna make turkey plant it and China pay for it' (Crowd applauds in red neck)

A perfect tree

Cheese Kurds? Hell yeah! I love Kurds!

F

Sometimes The Onion nails it.

He would probably lie about that too

TrumpGenocide KurdsBetrayedByTrump TrumpImpeachment CrimesAgainstHumanity

Oops this ones a little close to home isn't it 😬

Libs hate trees and the troops.

when you can’t tell if the onion is joking or not

a very believable title

I’ll take my dog there to piss on it lmao! 🤣

It would have been better if you'd taken a few minutes to actually try to capture his voice. This is nothing like his speech pattern.

Alternatively he could build a wall with commemorative wall plaques. Although it may need to a be a very long and large wall to ensure enough space for the commemorative plaques as lots of Kurds may die.

realDonaldTrump Its mean trump supporting ISIS & Kurdish millitants to fight against turkey inshallah turkey will finished all the millitants

How many trees did Obama plant for the 500,000 massacred Syrians?

...very nice, and hand-crafted in China.

Ask a Kurd !

The name of the USA will be respected all over the world after the magnanimous leader passes away after his 20 years kingdoms, his smart son Ivanka will take over after giving him beautiful kids.

The very nicesestest to everest be planted!

With a very tiny plaque that doesn't admit fault but mentions how huge Trump's crowds are.

Nah, the real Trump would never show even this much empathy.

Sadly this might be true by Tuesday

👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👨🏼

Wow. WAY too soon. If ever.

I think you might have got ahead of yourselves here. He may yet say this and then it will be your fault.

Said tree will then be cut down and used as fire wood as a metaphor for what Trump did to the Kurds

Named Donald

😂

Will it be an orange tree?

Well damn

Jfc.

KristenJayne1 Have you noticed that lately he's stopped doing that white power symbol with his hands? Somebody must have told him he was being too obvious.

k_swindl SHUDDUP ! If you’re so worried ? YOU GO over and fight your own ENDLESS WAR against the Turks. ALLMOUTHNOSTICK

no_scooters It’s A SATIRICAL WEBSITE. 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Half wrong because there Will be no tree

mountaingoat99 Oops.... The tree planted for France died.

lakerbee Sorry, can’t laugh.

It's horrifying. I was never for the War on Terror. I knew we were opening Pandora's Box. I'd like to see the wars over. But the fallout from withdrawing is horrible.

This is actually really sad

I am definitely not happy to hear this.

The Onion has been on fucking fire lately.

Trump said the Kurds didn't help the US during the Normandy Invasion. Will he mention that they weren't with us at Valley Forge during the American Revolution or at Gettysburg helping the Union Army. Wait for it.

It’s a.... “a Wirch Hazel”, Birch!!

Just like the one that he planted with Macron then had dug up a week later.

KT_So_It_Goes not funny.

Fighting climate change every step of the way

VicImes Scumbag

Epic. 😂😂😂

There will be a moment of silence at the groundbreaking ceremonies for the new Trump Towers in Ankara and Istanbul to honor Kurdish sacrifices. Once built there’s plan to place a small plaque at the boiler room to commemorate their deaths.

GTCost Honestly, this just can't be the real Deal! I think if it is a straight jacket is in order. I'm sure the Kurt's are yelling Yippee Kingdom Yayyyyyy! Lord almighty, seriously someone wake me up when the nightmare's over.

Not funny at any level!

Look at The Onion supporting endless war! All those super woke writers can join the Kurds and fight with them. They can also join the military.

Yet Bush is increasingly lionized.

More leaves than any other tree. The best leaves. In fact other trees dont even have leaves. I know leaves.

FlyingOverTr0ut there are those dilated pupils again...

it's almost as if people now have to look at what turkey are doing turkey is that fat man in a bar telling people to 'hold him back' turkey just postured they want to genocide people as a way to get more foreign aid and US troops in their area they can kill and leverage.

Little Miss Trumpet she sat on her tuffet, sending the Curds a whey Along came a spider who sat down beside her And killed all the Kurds through the day Yes OK it's terrible but I tried (as a certain President also may have said)

It will probably turn out like Macron's tree though.😅

If the us stayed ww3 would have been the quickest war in history

I just realized Trump's little OK signal is a signal that he feels he's talking down to you. Much like when you get in an argument with a woman and she leans forward. It means more to them than anyone else. :)

Too soon Onion. Too soon.

I once was blind and supported this jackass, I have seen the outcome of Trumps logic. It's all bad.

...only to be removed when the tennis court pavilion goes in...

Savage because it's true

Annanil3 WTF this guy is crazy KurdsBetrayedByTrump

And Obama will be the featured speaker.

We(Turkey) are not fighting the Kurdish people, we are fighting kurdish terrorists. our goal is to end terrorism. Don't be fooled by fake news.

Too close to being accurate...

KT_So_It_Goes

Cut and run with honor. Nixonian

LOCK HIM UP! LOCK HIM UP! LOCK HIM UP!

This is what happens when people vote for “America First.” The blood is on those voters’ hands.

No. This is not funny.

The sad part is, it's a totally believable story....

Not even funny.... Innocent people are going to be killed because Trump owns a hotel in Turkey.

ugh jesus The Onion just gets after it

It’ll be a tree like no one else could ever do. Because his trees are the most tree-ish, best trees in the world because no one ever understood trees like he does. Covfefe

A Blood-Red Maple?

Trump is evil. So disgusting deporable

This is too accurate.

Trump grants Kurds temporary visas if they can get to US.

So soon

🙁

The nicest. I know trees. Some say I know more about trees than, well, anyone. Really. Very wooden, these trees. Very good.

I don’t think Trump cares that much.

Jesus Christ, man

Yeah, the Kurds. They are for sure on my top 100 things I worry about daily.

As long as it's a perfect tree. KurdsBetrayedByTrump

Dark. I like that.
