Trump threatened to "destroy the Turkish economy" - so why is Ankara optimistic?

Turkish President Erdogan was quick to congratulate Donald Trump yesterday on his re-election as US President and called him "my friend". 

A bit strange since in the previous term the relationship between the two was shaky and Trump even threatened to "destroy the Turkish economy" due to the military activity against the Kurds. Trump also imposed sanctions in the field of military procurement on Ankara.

Despite everything, optimism is being broadcast in Turkey and the stock exchange yesterday rose by 3% - an increase that has not been recorded for a long time. 

It is possible that this is happening because it cannot be worse than what the Biden administration was in terms of the Turks. Biden called Erdogan an "autocrat" and was not invited to the White House.

Trump likes the freedom loving Kurds and will stand up for them. Turkey’s move for Syria is also dangerous for turkey that’s why they are moving so fast. But HTS is setting itself up for rule 🇺🇸🇮🇱

Erdogan is just a ‘higher classed’ free-loader choosing now to kiss Trump’s arse to keep those tariffs out! Comical relief. Erdogan is but another murdering Dictator. We have many in the world. 🇺🇸
