Trump showed his ignorance and lack of dignity (and lack of everything else) for criticizing tne Seal Commander. The cia found bin laden. it was not the seal teams duty to find him. Trump, as pressident, has to stop being a dick wad.

PT Warriors attack ACTUAL military leaders who dare to disagree with Cadet Bonespur. Imagine that.

This is your argument? I guess this board is right about you. This POTUS has faced the most adversity I have seen in my lifetime and has accomplished a good bit. I've seen a roaring economy, solid response to disasters, and strong foreign policy just to name a few things. I sincerely hope you are just a troll.

When are you liberals going to learn that trotting out deep state military people isn't going to make the rank and file suddenly support your open borders hate America agenda?

I pretty much agree with him. And he needs to shut his yap. Tired of military people throwing around their former status to comment on political issues.

Retired General - Otherwise he would be in the brig for insubordination.

These guys mad Trump isn’t fueling the war machine by not getting into any senseless new wars.

Commenting also Trump’s decision not to attended Veteran’s Day services at Arlington National Cemetery: “It’s a factor of leadership. Leaders know what to do, where to be, what things to say. And in all three of those things, I think the president is currently a failure.”
I'm confused. I thought the Veterans Day ceremonies, specifically the wreath laying, were held Sunday when the President was abroad. The President acknowledged bad judgment in not going to Arlington on Monday, the Federal Holiday, apologized, and vowed to never make the mistake again.
This according to The Hill.
quote:
President Trump is expressing regret about his decision not to visit Arlington National Cemetery to mark Veterans Day. "I should have done that," Trump said during an interview set to air on "Fox News Sunday." While Trump rarely makes a public show of regret, he has recently faced criticism over his leadership of the U.S. armed forces. The president had no public events scheduled on Monday upon his return to Washington, when Veterans Day was observed as a federal holiday.
Trump was in Paris on Sunday for Veterans Day to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I, where he delivered remarks at a U.S. cemetery. Trump faced major blowback for skipping a visit to a military cemetery the previous day, a decision he blamed on poor weather. Presidents typically attend a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington cemetery. That ceremony was held this year on Sunday, when the Trump was in France.
If that's the case, then the General's criticism is a bit overblown and disingenuous.

I explained all of this on the previous page.
And even IF Trump just decided to skip it, he wouldn’t have been the first: HW Bush, a combat veteran, once chose to spend Veterans Day at Camp David. So there’s that too.

The generals did not like Ronald Reagan when he cut troops at the end of his presidency and Bush finished reducing the forces before desert storm.
The only reason they could not publicly talk bad about Reagan is that he served in WWII.

the General’s remarks about Trump and Veterans Day we’re spot on.
It's pretty difficult for Trump to basically claim he had too much going on. It isn't like Veteran's Day isn't on the calendar so he can plan ahead or anything.

Ever wonder why Democrats have such a hard-on for women and gays in the military: It's called "infiltration" and it allows the institution to be destroyed from within.
Same reason that Dems love Generals but hate Sergeants, as most Generals simply become Politicians at some point.
Bravo, you found a disgraced General that said something bad about Trump, but he is STILL loved by the majority of the REAL military and not those who are there for a paycheck.
