There are times a military mission fails. Happens all the time.

If the POTUS takes credit for the success of a military action, he has to take blame for any failures also. After all, he is CIC. The buck will always stop with him.

Speedy, just look at what's happening. Now, if this was Hillary, you know full well that LP would need a $hit ton of more bandwith to handle THEIR outrage. Oh, but Trump can put it off on the same Generals...'cause he knows more than them. Remember? Then, we have smart people who clearly see where the SEAL'S MOM AND DAD, HIS BLOOD, HAD ZERO INTEREST IN TRUMP'S BS. His wifevwas simply being cardial, and, was OBLIGATED to represent her unwarranted fallen husband. Simple.

For you know who: *Of course the Democrats had strange looks on their faces, you dumb azz, because they know the specifics of the intelligence failure causing a loss of a SEAL'S life among others. Of course the Republicans gave a fake, over extended, and overly pronounced ovation to the wife BECAUSE THEY'RE IN DAMAGE CONTROL. Where is the support for Hillary who was trying like hell to get more funding for security in Benghazi for Amassador Stevens but, THESE SAME REPUBLICANS DENIED HER?????

Blatant hypocrisy with a dash of bogotry, a splash of ass-inine-ness, topped off with embalming fluid-laced bath salts.

LL, they are drinking a lot of KOOL-AID. Everyone with commonsense knows that Obama was planning it but decided the timing was not right to give it a green light, Trump on his own gave it a green light, thinking that he would have a big victory to brag about, instead it caused the death of a navy seal and a lot of collateral damage. He placed the blame on his generals when all they were doing is carrying out his orders. The story of the raid keeps changing. First it was barking dogs, now the narrative is a leak. They need to investigate as the father of Ryan requested. A man is not going to fall for some BS about his dead son.
