A letter that President Donald Trump wrote to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has been made public.
In it, President Trump warns Erdogan to not be a ‘tough guy’ or ‘a fool.’
"Dear Mr. President," the Oct. 9 letter began, "Let's work out a good deal! You don't want to be responsible for slaughtering thousands of people, and I don't want to be responsible for destroying the Turkish economy — and I will."
He continues, “History will look upon you favorably if you get this done the right and humane way. It will look upon you forever as the devil if good things don't happen.”
