He should do what King Obama did, blame Bush.

Your always on here taking shots at Trump and yet you have not ever seen him admit a mistake?

Just off the top of my head i remember the Debate where he apologized about the taped bus incident.
Or when he Apologized for sending some tweet about Ted Cruz's wife. Or admitting he should not have said a women should be penalized for getting a abortion. I'm sure there are more because of the way he runs his mouth. The way you are always posting about him how do you not remember these?

To claim the SEALS "murdered" women and children, when they were ambushed by ISIS fighters using them as human shields is disgusting. That really crosses the line.
Sure they didn't. They just happened to stumble across a school and a hospital, with their number 1 victims being women and children. Sounds like a load of excuses and cover up to me.

Further the terms you're using show a complete lack of understanding of the nuances of the region. This was an attack (supposedly) on *Al-Qaeda*, not *ISIS*. They are two separate and distinct groups with different visions and strategies...*and* they are currently at odds with each other.

Not to derail the thread but we need a *major* overhaul of the American education system. Our population is dangerously ignorant of anything outside of the US. And frankly even within it.

Good to know the Republican party is still the party of integrity and personal responsibility...

Default Trump blames everyone but himself for botched Yemen raid

So, tRump won't take responsibility for his botched mission?

But at the same time, he's trying to get everyone to give him credit for all kinds of things that others have accomplished.

There's a term for guys like him.

I am getting the impression that Mr Trump has always been this way. The problem is always someone else or they are out to get him.


It must be hell working for him.

Colin Kahl, who was a security official for Obama, calls this story "BS" and given the fact that the Trump administration lies with breathtaking frequency, I'm inclined to believe him. According to Kahl, Obama had misgivings about the mission and specifically left it for Trump to decide, and the full moon bit is made-up nonsense.

There is only a handful of people that know that information and you aren't one of them.

Senior US officials are flat-out saying that no significant intel was uncovered.

Trump gave the authorization while dining with political buddies and while passing the Grey Poupon.

Trying to blame his generals for an mission he alone had the power to authorize.

A mission the previous administration rejected because it was too risky. A mission that yielded nothing in the way of useful intel.

Trump is a national disgrace.
I don't recall Obama, Hillary or ANY of Obama's people taking ANY irresponsibility for THEIR actions.

Fake outrage at its best!
