#TrumpGenocide trends on Twitter after Trump green-lights ethnic cleansing of the Kurds
President Donald Trump on Wednesday said that he wanted the expected ethnic cleansing of Kurds by Turkey to be done in a “humane way.”
And he was mocked on Twitter and on MSNBC after arguing that Kurds aren’t that strong of allies because they did not storm the beaches of Normandy during World War II.
With worries that Trump had green-lighted ethnic cleansing, he was accused of genocide on Twitter with the hashtag #TrumpGenocide.
Here’s some of what people were saying:
I think its so important to rewatch this piece about the Trump Hotel and Turkey on Al Jazeera. This piece is two years, but insanely relevant today. Features my projections.#TrumpGenocide #KurdsBetrayedByTrump pic.twitter.com/S3tzeJQPEM

Graham, Rubio, and the rest of you cowards are sending our allies to their deaths so Trump can personally benefit in Turkey.

What Trump has done now puts him on the level of Hitler, maybe worse. He should be immediately removed from office and tried not only for treason but for war crimes and murder! A disgrace to this country, a disgrace to mankind! #TrumpGenocide

Don’t forget that Erdogan violently sicced his goons on Kurdish protesters on *U.S. soil* in 2017.
This is the same guy that Trump is trusting not to kill our allies the Kurds and who he’s invited to the White House.#TrumpGenocide #KurdsBetrayedByTrumppic.twitter.com/jGbzipbFAo

All these Republican Senators are voicing "concern" about how Trump is getting the Kurds murdered today – and yet if they came out in favor of impeachment, Trump could be ousted from office by dinnertime. These fucking cowards in the GOP make me want to throw up. #TrumpGenocide

If only someone could have warned you that Trump was dangerous and if we elected him, he would destroy us.

WATCH: Saturday Night Live airs Christmas special — that’s just one giant dig at the Electoral College
NBC's "Saturday Night Live" aired an opening skit that was just one giant attack on the electoral college.
A snowman introduced the segment, saying that we could look in on the holiday table conversation thanks to hacked Nest cams.
The skit featured a house in San Francisco, California, a second in Charleston, South Carolina and a third in Atlanta, Georgia.
Each dinner table debated impeachment, and the differences between President Donald Trump and his predecessor, President Barack Obama.
But then the snowman said that none of their votes matter.
"They'll debate the issues all year long, but then it all comes down to 1,000 people in Wisconsin who won't even think about the election until the morning of," the snowman said. "And that's the magic of the Electoral College."
