Yes... Trump actually said that, in order to explain why we don't owe Kurds all that much...

“Now the Kurds are fighting for their land,”

Trump told reporters at the White House on Wednesday.

“As somebody wrote in a very powerful article today, they didn’t help us in the Second World War, they didn’t help us with Normandy, as an example,” the president added. “They’re there to help us with their land, and that’s a different thing.”
