Retired general calls out Trump’s ‘shameful’ command of military: ‘The president lied’ about Niger ambush rawstory.com/2017/10/retire…
Mother of slain soldier confirms Trump lied: He “did disrespect my son and my daughter” shareblue.com/mother-of-slai… via @shareblue
Get back to us when @realDonaldTrump's ready to sit still and answer questions about the #Niger ambush for 11 hours like HRC did w/Benghazi.
Like, are they gonna even pretend to be interested in finding out what actually happened that caused 4 men to lose their lives? Hello!?!
Leave it to the MSM to make the main issue whether DT called families of the fallen, not what role his foreign policy played in their deaths
Explain to me how the same Trump who spends more time tweeting and golfing than anything else is the commander-in-chief of our armed forces.
Explain to me how any of the asinine tweets and commentary he's produced over the last 2 weeks signify mental fitness to decide war matters.
When Trump gets the 3 am phone call, he's already awake watching Fox "news" and tweeting his grandiose, paranoid and persecutory delusions.
They expect us to believe that the same dude who can barely speak a coherent sentence has the wherewithal to authorize military operations?
Trump wandered away from his own executive order signing FOR THE 2nd TIME last week. How is he fit to decide life and death of our troops?!
No seriously, WHAT THE FUCK?!
If this is what our soldiers are "signing up for" and what respect for the flag and anthem looks like, then be transparent about it.
You want them to go to war for the enrichment of people who don't even have the humanity to respect their grieving families when they die.
Heinous shit like this is why people are taking a knee.
What is America's military objective in Niger and why isn't the press asking the alleged commander-in-chief to state it plainly on live TV?
The MSM doesn't have to let Trump set the narrative but they do it time and again b/c they're too ignorant/corrupt to do actual journalism.
Ain't no way the media would've let Obama or either of the Clintons evade accountability for troop fatalities by insulting Gold ⭐️ families.
Seriously, this sociopath's pivot from a discussion about his military's preparedness is trolling mourning military families. GTFOH, DT.
Also I'm old enough to remember the Pat Tillman scandal and Trump is clearly on a path to make GWB's mismanagement look good by comparison.
Trump contacted these families 2 weeks late b/c he got called out for not giving a fuck yet. Was he even aware the ambush took place or nah?
When was Trump briefed on the Niger ambush and if ISIS is responsible for it why isn't he saber rattling with them like he is Kim Jong Un?
The clearest indication that Trump truly DGAF is now that he knows the soldiers died he STILL hasn't mentioned the bastards who killed them.
Trump has more knives out for a congresswoman and a grieving family than the terrorists who murdered American troops. SOCIOPATH TRAITOR.

Jemele Hill. NFL/NBA. Congresswoman Wilson. Basically Trump's entire strategy for deflecting away from his failures is attacking Black ppl.
Make no mistake this has *everything* to do with the fact that collectively Black people are the ABSOLUTE LEAST likely to buy his bullshit.
You don't say some fucked up shit like "he knew what he signed up for" to us and expect us not to call your stupid, unempathetic ass out.
We don't give a fuck if you're the fake ass Russian plant POTUS or not. Put some respect on it when you speak to us or expect clapback. 🔥
I hope more players #takeaknee this weekend too. The #Niger ambush cover up and the disrespect of Sgt. Johnson and his family fit the bill.
They let a Black soldier lay dead on the battlefield 48 hrs, returned his unviewable remains to his widow/mother/kids, then insulted them.
Since 1/20/17 the biggest insult to the military, the republic and the flag for which it stands has been Donald Trump. Full stop. #takeaknee
Fox’s smear campaign backfires, exposes Gold Star widow’s congresswoman as champion for vets shareblue.com/foxs-smear-cam… via @shareblue
Here's what y'all need to understand about the Black majority in the Trump era: We didn't vote for his racist ass and he isn't OUR POTUS.
We aren't gonna participate in pretending Trump is competent or fit to lead, let alone comfort anyone who's suffered a tragedy since 1/20.
When Trump fucks up, Black people are always gonna be the first to ring the alarm b/c he's usually fucking up by being blatantly racist.
Trump is racist every single fucking day of the week, the fact that y'all are still fishing for ways to deny it is why Karma is so busy now.
You know who else is busy? Black women. No matter how much hateful sewage Trump throws at us, we keep speaking the truth and the light.
If it weren't for Black women calling this fool out on the regular, y'all wouldn't have so many chances to see him for who he really is.
The offense being taken by John Kelly is that the Black women in Sgt. Johnson's life are taking Trump to task for his many failures as CIC.
Trump isn't a consoler in chief or a commander in chief. He lacks the empathy, insight, judgment and education required to do both.
When the facts come to light, Trump's hubris, ignorance, greed & sociopathy will be implicated in many American fatalities.
WE told you so.
WE told you so.
Y'all can be mad at us all you want, that still doesn't bring anyone back from the dead or make Trump any less sick, dangerous and UNFIT.
The bottom line is STILL that Donald Trump is too severely personality disordered and cognitively impaired to lead this country. Period.
Trump is terminally incapable of unifying and leading the nation, and nowhere is this more evident than in his malignant response to crises.
Trump will never enjoy the type of emotional approval bounce 9/11 gave GWB because he isn't even capable of mustering empathy in a tragedy.
Trump's been the exact same narcissist sociopath amidst climate disasters, Las Vegas and military fatalities. No empathy, no leadership.
Trump can't be empathetic b/c he's expending all his energy projecting and deflecting away from his failure to lead effectively in a crisis.
In other words, Trump nor his staff can appear to be sorry for what's happening b/c they don't want to be held accountable for fixing it.
They also don't want us digging into the role they played in causing or exacerbating the crisis at hand. So they gaslight, project, deflect.
Trump doesn't want you to know that *his* foreign policy results in reckless endangerment of American troops.
Trump and his enabling staff want you to be more focused on his racist, sociopathic "condolence call" than this:
We didn't hear from Trump about #Niger when it happened b/c he didn't want us to know HE fucked up. The "call" was a wild goose chase.
Trump would much rather hurl insults at Black women (campaign) than face the music about his mishandling of military operations in Niger.
Likewise, Trump preferred hurling insults at a Puerto Rican woman rather than face the music about his egregious mismanagement of Maria.
All he's doing is waging a culture war while disasters abound and the @GOP does nothing but make everything worse.
