A day after it was disclosed that he had brain cancer, Sen. John McCain was back in action on Thursday — slamming the Trump administration for axing a covert CIA operation that armed moderate Syrian rebels.

“This is a momentous decision. Putin won in Syria,” a US official who supported the program told The Washington Post.

The program to arm moderate Syrian rebels began under the Obama administration in 2013 and was continued under Trump until now.

Officials told the paper that phasing out the covert program was a way to improve relations with Russia and Putin, who strongly opposed the effort.

The officials said the president made the call after an Oval Office sitdown with CIA Director Mike Pompeo and National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster ahead of Trump’s meeting with Putin at the G20 in Germany on July 7.

The move comes three months after the US bombed a Syrian airfield in retaliation for a chemical attack launched by Assad’s forces on rebel positions.

This is bad policy by "Trump." Like his predecessor, Obama, Trump too should have drawn a few red lines. Unfortunately for Trump, though, by the time he moved to the White House, they had run out of all the red magic markers.
