Turkish business groups break with government, beg President Erdogan to make amends with the US

Turkish business groups are begging President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to make amends with the U.S. in an effort to save the Turkish economy, the Financial Times reported. This is a rare public criticism of Erdogan, who has been intensifying his crackdown against any opposition.

The call from businesses came as Erdogan demanded a boycott of Apple and other U.S.-made products in an effort to hurt the United States.

I really applaud Trump doing this.  Going all out to save one American citizen is something virtually nobody else would have done.

I was worried in the beginning that Trump was a bit too chummy with Erdogan, but I see he's clearly come around and saw what a bad guy he really is.
