President Trump on Tuesday warned that he would withdraw U.S. support for Iraq if the parliament reinstates Nori al-Maliki as prime minister.
In a post on the president’s social media site, TruthSocial, Trump said Iraq “might make a very bad choice” by reinstalling Maliki, who served as prime minister between 2006 and 2014. He stepped down as the rise of the Islamic State threatened the country.

Maliki’s eight years in power are characterized as a period of nepotism, corruption and incompetence

Odd, you'd think Trump could relate to that....
Though they don't like each other very much, could this push Iraq a little closer to Iran.
Then there's that flotilla...
