Trump Blames SEALs Death On Military: They Lost Ryan

Link to tweet


President Donald Trump on Tuesday dodged responsibility for a botched mission he ordered in Yemen last month, placing the onus on the military and Barack Obama’s administration instead.

Bill Owens, the father of Chief Petty Officer William “Ryan” Owens, the Navy SEAL who died in the operation, demanded an investigation into his son’s death over the weekend. Owens further revealed he couldn’t bear to meet Trump at the airport as Ryan’s casket was carried off the military plane last month.

Asked about the matter during an interview with Fox News’ “Fox ‘n’ Friends,” Trump repeatedly said “they” were responsible for the outcome of the mission, in reference to the military.

“This was a mission that was started before I got here. This was something they wanted to do,” he said. “They came to me, they explained what they wanted to do ― the generals ― who are very respected, my generals are the most respected that we’ve had in many decades, I believe. And they lost Ryan.

“I can understand people saying that. I’d feel ― ‘What’s worse?’ There’s nothing worse,” he added. “This was something that they were looking at for a long time doing, and according to Defense Secretary Jim Mattis it was a very successful mission. They got tremendous amounts of information.”

In the end though, he shouldn't be pushing the blame off on anyone. They all were a part of it

Trump gave the order, he owns it sorry and any decent leader would take responsibility for his decisions.  He could have said "no"

Why does Obama own any of it?  The military came up with the mission and Obama's only part in this was to say "no" unless you think that Obama sat around with the Generals planning out a Yemen raid....lmao!  Duhhhhh

:lmao:

Trump said yes.  It's on him.  Period.

I wonder what formal generals, who've served in the last several decades, think about trump's remarks about him having "the best generals in decades". this guy certainly knows how to make enemies, which will be his demise.  soon, hopefully.

You really couldn't have a demographic as much misunderstood as you and the military.

you're saying that because you probably consider the military great when you were in, but when Obama took over it turned bad. let me ask you this - if you had been a great UPS driver for 10 years under manager A, then manager B comes in, fires you and hires driver C, then states they now have the best driver they've had in decades...

you wouldn't be pissed?

proud :lol:

paleeeeeezzzzz

First of all.. I'm a GREAT driver. 28 years. If I got fired, I would deserve it.

Second of all, again, you are dealing in strawmen and highly unlikely scenarios to push some kind of alternate reality only you can see.

Well the topic was Obama, so if you weren't including him in your collective "they are all responsible" comments, you should have said so.  We can't read your mind you dumbfuck.  Go back to sleep you moron.

:lmao:

I don't see Obama's name in there? Who is president now? Who did the military go to for this? Who agreed to it? Who planned it?

You can't read my mind or my posts apparently :news: 

Post again and dig yourself a deeper hole :lol:
