Donald Trump has done it again. There are no limits to the chaos, destruction and fear he can create with the powers of the U.S. presidency behind him. This most recent disaster, in northern Syria, has already begun to take awful shape with U.S. Troops abandoning the Kurds — our allies in the fight against ISIS — to allow Turkey's military advance.
In the video, CNN's Clarissa Ward speaks to a family in the back of a truck waiting for traffic to begin to move. The scene is bedlam, as cars and trucks are gridlocked, and the family does not even know where they're going.
The family speaking to Ward said they were frightened for the children, and "Why wouldn't they be? The sky is thick with black smoke, there have been strikes for the last couple of hours," she said. The family told her there were many different explosions from shelling and artillery, but they don't know where they can go now in order to be safe, or where they'll sleep tonight.
