Nope, he clearly said this was planned under the Obama Administration. And that's the truth. Not sure how people are blaming Trump for this (wait - never mind).

A claim was made based on an "opinion pol".

The pol is biased, therefore its "findings" are suspect.
Actually, it isn't just my opinion.

But oh well.

Because Trump's the Commander in Chief. Haven't you heard? It's been in all the papers.

Because Trump gave the go-ahead.

As much as Trump's dissed everything Obama has done and announced he is going to reverse it all, I'm surprised he authorized this raid. But he did and he owns it.

Trying to throw the Generals under the bus for his decision is a **** move.

It's probably going to take President Trump a year to wipe out all vestiges of the O'Bummer administration. When he's done, it will be like Obama was never President.

Oh My God!!!! I can't wait for that day.

Like Chris Wallace said tonight. After this speech, "TRUMP IS NOW PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!!"

People are probably blaming trump because they aren't sycophants and trump is the one who approved the raid and not Obama. Not complicated.

Granted, the resignations & withdrawals aren't helping.
He does NOT even have his entire cabinet confirmed yet thanks to the dems in the Senate acting like little kids trowing a tantrum because they didn't win the election.

So-called President & his loyal lapdog sycophants apparently find it more convenient (in a con & bs artist sortof way) to blame others rather than submit to being held accountable for their own actions. Multiple & various attempts to avoid scrutiny leave the door wide open for abuse of power.

This, by the way, is not unusual. It is however unusual to be such an ungrateful %rick about it:

WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump has asked roughly 50 senior Obama administration appointees to remain in their posts after his inauguration to ensure continuity in government, his incoming White House press secretary said Thursday.

The officials include the highest-ranking career officials at key national security agencies like the Pentagon and State Department. ...
