"Melania Trump and her staff were unhappy with Ricardel, who held what has traditionally been one of the government's most sensitive jobs, coordinating advice on national security issues from multiple departments and agencies." FLOTUS firing someone important on national security council over a plane seat is not crazy enough to make the cut for the WTF thread, @NewRoxFan ? https://www.politico.com/story/2018/11/14/mira-ricardel-still-employed-melania-990744
LOL... well, I covered it in this thread: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/index.php...p-administration.284530/page-40#post-12065751 But yea, its also a WTF moment...
trump didn't go last year either. trump really doesn't care about our troops... if he did, he would have visited the troops at least once in the two years he has been president. Every other president, including President Obama, made multiple visits to U.S. troops in the active duty. But not trump... he is too busy.
after Trump pulled former CIA Director John Brennan's Secoraurity clearance, the four-star admiral who led the SEAL team to capture bin Laden, retired adm McRaven, wrote an August op-ed article calling on Trump to revoke his security clearance. McRaven called rump's lambasting of the news media possibly "the greatest threat to democracy in my lifetime" during a speech at the University of Texas. "When you undermine the people's right to a free press and freedom of speech and expression, then you threaten the Constitution and all for which it stands," the dotard doubled down on his willful ignorance; in an interview w Chris Wallace of Fox News, he say "he (McRaven) should have capture bin Laden a lot sooner David Lapan, a former Homeland Security spokesman for the Trump administration and a former Marine, commented that Trump, after 2 years as command in chief, shows a lack of understanding of military operations https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/16/us/politics/president-trump-military.html
Or maybe it is a 3D chess thing. Trump and his very good brain operate at such a higher level than normal, most people can not tell if trump is a genius or an idiot.
on the day after, the the dotard back-pedals, but w more false info and lies to muddy up the discussion, just to move the narrative away from Adm McRaven
