Option three. Caught between a rock and a hard place. Turkey gives no fucks and is coming into Northern Syria in force. US ha less than 50 troops in harms way. Trump can't war against Turkey as they are a NATO member and he has promised to bring back troops early in his campaign promises.
Therefore take out troops and get them out of harm's way. Keep a promise.
But those poor non-NATO allies the Kurds, who do they get to ally with to protect them if NOT USA? Syria or Russia perhaps. Okay so new status quo is that they have new alliances that will protect them and The US does not need to police it any more. Turkey is checked. Win.
