Trump admonishes Navy SEAL for not killing Osama bin Laden fast enough - Polidicks

https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-attacks-retired-navy-commander-not-getting-osama-bin-laden-1221158 President Donald Trump has attacked a retired Navy Admiral, a 37-year veteran of the U.S. military, for not catching Osama bin Laden quicker, while also criticizing the former commander for being a supporter of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. In a wide-ranging interview with Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace, the president responded to a question about significant criticism from retired Admiral William McRaven, who served as Commander of the United States Special Operations Command from 2011 until 2014, by going on the offensive. When Wallace pointed out that McRaven has said Trump’s “sentiment is the greatest threat to Democracy in his life,” the president wrote off the criticism as support for his political opposition. “OK, he’s a Hillary Clinton-backer and an Obama-backer,” Trump said, to which Wallace pushed back, pointing out that McRaven was a veteran Navy SEAL. “Wouldn’t it have been nice if we got Osama bin Laden a lot sooner than that?” the president asked, cutting Wallace off. McRaven was in charge of the operation when the former leader of Al Qaeda was taken out by U.S. Special Forces in a 2011 raid. The extremist leader was allegedly the mastermind of the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York City and Washington, DC that left thousands of Americans dead. Wallace pushed back again, asking: “You’re not even going to give them credit for taking down Bin Laden?” “They took him down,” Trump conceded, before shifting the subject point out that Bin Laden had been living in Pakistan without problems. The president argued that the extremist leader’s whereabout were well known to Pakistani leaders, but the U.S. continued to give the country money regardless. Trump then shifted to talking about the press, insisting that a free press is important while also attacking what he classified as fake stories and unfair reporting. “But the president doesn’t get to decide what’s fair and what’s not,” Wallace interjected. “I can tell what’s fair and what’s not,” Trump shot back. Earlier in the interview the president also repeated his attacks on the media, calling it "100 percent true" that "the fake news" is "the enemy of the American people." Wallace then pointed out that such rhetoric has been jumped on by authoritarian leaders around the world to attack critics. "I can't talk for other people,” the president responded. “The news about me is largely phony. It's false."

Keep digging that hole Donnie

Trump fucking hates the troops.

I can't wait until nature takes it's course and Donald Trump's time on this planet ends. Maybe then we can begin to undo all the shit he's fucked up.

After saying things like "I like the ones who don't get captured." & "I always wanted a purple heart." I thought it be hard to get upset at anything else who says related to the military community, but this cunt still finds a way. At first it was an embarrassment to consider him my boss, but at this point the idea is more than an extraordinary disgrace.

Every time Trump opens his big mouth my blood boils

I'm sorry for any member of the armed services that has to salute that retarded cunt.

Why this man has so much military support (aside from the Magic R next to his name) will forever be a mystery to me.

What about the members of the armed forces that still support him? We're talking nearly half of enlisted troops, by the way.

I think its clear people are just projecting there ideal image of Trump onto him currently.

So what, he wanted Osama alive? I mean, that was the plan initially even if it didn't pan out that way. In case anybody wonders why the Seal had a bit of hesitation filling Osama with holes.

If he'd gotten that purple heart though, he might not have became president. Do you think he fully realizes what it means?

If Trump had a Purple Heart he'd brag about it at every fucking opportunity and work it into every damn conversation because it's something he'd have that his fellow elite socialites don't

I cannot comment on my willingness to help him in the process of acquiring a Purple Heart.

I'm sure Admiral McRaven would have no problem helping Trump get a Purple Heart. I'd buy tickets to that fight...

Remind me again why this creature is still in office after all the shit he's pulled?

I'm pretty sure he'd consider getting poked with a thumb tack enough of a reason to ask for a Purple Heart.

Mattis?

The fact this is a real headline in real life is enough to make some dissociate from reality.

sometimes the appropriate response to reality is to go insane

To go off piste for a moment here, the man who shot Osama had been given a golden oppertunity to deploy the US navy seal copypasta and a small part of me is dissaponted he didn't.

I thought I had shied away from wishing any harm upon anybody, but I'm starting to wish he'd get hit by a bus.

I'm shocked that he didn't try to claim that HE could have found and killed Osama quicker, at least not directly. Then again it may be a rare bit of good judgement on part, what with how the leader of a sect of terrorists isn't likely to be like a hypothetical school shooter and swoon over Donald Trump trying to apprehend him.

Well he's certainly the most incompetent. I think that's what's stopping him from being the worst though. Not that he's anything remotely resembling a good president either. He's definitely a bottom run president and the country has suffered a lot under his incompetence. I'm just not so certain he's the worst when we have shit like the initial handling of the Great Depression.

If you can't even handle relatively good times for the country well, you're pretty shit.

Yes, actually. The second he cuts Mattis out, he loses his military support.

Wiping him from the record would ensure that someone like him could come back and nobody remembering just how bad he really was. He needs to be in the history books as a reminder of just how bad of a president he really was and what not to stoop down to. If we scrubbed the Nazis from history, we would probably have seen neo-Nazis taking over governments shortly after WW2.

A book by donald trump? I wonder who wrote it.
