About

Donald Trump's Letter to Turkey refers to a letter written in October 2019 to Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the President of Turkey, from President Donald Trump, in which he urges Erdogan to make a "good deal" and threatens to destroy the Turkish economy. On Twitter, the letter was widely mocked and criticized by those who felt Trump's language was overly simplistic and inflammatory.

Origin

On October 16th, 2019, Fox Business Anchor Trish Regan[1] tweeted a copy of Trumps letter to Erdogan (shown below). The tweet received over 25,300 likes and 13,100 retweets in a day. The letter ends with Trump saying,

"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. Don't be a tough guy. Don't be a fool! I will call you later."

1 of 1 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON October 9, 2019 His Excellency Recep Tayyip Erdogan President of the Republic of Turkey Ankara Dear Mr. President: 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. I've already given you a little sample with respect to Pastor Brunson. I have worked hard to solve some of your problems. Don't let the world down. You can make a great deal. General Mazloum is willing to negotiate with you, and he is willing to make concessions that they would never have made in the past. I am confidentially enclosing a copy of his letter to me, just received. 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. Don't be a tough guy. Don't be a fool! I will call you later. Sincerely Anthary
