    In the Trump administration, the buck apparently stops anywhere but the Oval Office.

    President Trump on Tuesday blamed the military for the death of Chief Petty Officer William “Ryan” Owens, a Navy SEAL who was killed in a Jan. 29 botched raid on Islamic terrorists in Yemen.

    During an interview on “Fox ‘n’ Friends,” the commander-in-chief repeatedly said “they” — meaning the military — were at fault for the death of Owens, whose dad, Bill, refused to appear with Trump when his son’s body was returned to the US.

    “This was a mission that was started before I got here. This was something they wanted to do,” Trump said.

    Trump has no sensitivity. This is evident in his relentless urge to blame anyone and he defends his own actions without remorse...... so sad

    Oh, now I get it. You changed it from Trump to Obama. Sorry.

    And Fox to Huffpost.

    Oh I mean Democrats too . . . I'm guessing any number of die-hard Team Blue folks would find some way to hand-wave it.

    Fake news. I watched the whole thing, and nowhere does he "blame" anyone.

    He, and General Mattis, both called it the success it was.

    Ah. Right. Well, that would take a lot of imagination because I'm having a hard time picturing Obama blaming the military for something like this. I mean, it's incredible. Trump does understand that he's commander-in-chief, right?

    "A commander-in-chief is the person or body that exercises supreme operational command and control of a nation's military forces"

    Source unknown. lol.

    Only in the Libtard Universe could complimenting the military for a successful mission be reported as blaming the military for a needless death in a failed mission.

    Only a snowflake could be made a fool of so easily.
