Trump wants you to know something about Brett McGurk, the Obama appointee who made news this weekend by moving up his resignation from the State Department:
For all of the sympathizers out there of Brett McGurk remember, he was the Obama appointee who was responsible for loading up airplanes with 1.8 Billion Dollars in CASH & sending it to Iran as part of the horrific Iran Nuclear Deal (now terminated) approved by Little Bob Corker.

Yeah. Not hating the fact that he’s leaving.
Also I think Trump is right about McGurk grandstanding over his exit. Probably wanted to punch Trump in the eye and ensure he gets a cushy job at CNN or MSNBC.
Trump also tweeted this re Syria and Afghanistan:

Just as a reminder, this is how Lt. Gen. Boykin responded to Trump’s desire to leave Syria back in April of this year:
