Trump outs SEAL Team Five...?

[Expat]

Yep. He's an entertaining guy, to say the least.

The first one that was more biographical was my favorite, but all of them were, as you say, entertaining. He loved his ossifers.

Woohoo! A new outrage of the day!

• Trump didn't visit the troops at Christmas time! (This lie started before Christmas was even over.).
• The first lady wears combat boots! (Really? How pathetic.)
• US Troops getting MAGA hats signed is a campaign violation! (Really? Troops aren't allowed to have their own hats signed by the president or to agree with the concept of making America great?)
• Trump outs Seal Team 5! (Actually, Newsweek outed them.)

All spin, all the time. Shouldn't be long for the next made-up outrage. Does most of the MSM even bother to make corrections any more?

I suggest the Big Cat-2 Donkeys thread. Early results show it could be a classic.

Wait, what? Donkey show thread?

Funny thing, Hammer and Nigel read the text of the policy that the anti Trumpers are screaming about the soldiers violated. The policy states that they cannot engage in political rallies or political CANDIDATES while in uniform. (my paraphrasing) Sorry guys, but its PRESIDENT Trump, not CANDIDATE Trump. IMHO, the ship sailed on that rule over 2 years ago and it no longer applies because he is their boss, not a candidate. At least not without some mental gymnastics.

More left wing, fake news, Trump bashing...


In Iraq visit, Trump makes false claims about military pay again

Oh... Wait...

 

[INGarand]

News media gets their butts hurt because President Trump embarrass them when they find out he was already planning a trip to visit the troops. If anyone outed the Seal Team it was them alone, and if anyone really thinks the locals don't know already what units are deployed they live in a fantasy world.

I might just have to check it out now.

Still far better than Hillary.

The First Lady wears Combat boots.

^^ Joke for those not capable of getting the reference to the old cut down.

“Your mama wears combat boots”

So... I'm wondering what this SEAL team issue is a distraction from.

He has never heard of me, I'll settle for half that in cash.

Well, sort of yes and no. I've worked a few Presidential details here in Indy and they cannot vett everyone. If he is in a secure facility and he decides to meet with a group, there is not much the USSS can do about it. He takes pics with our officers working his detail EVERY time he is in town and the USSS doesn't know who we are.

They didn't know who you were...that's some comedy right there.

How could they miss a guy riding an elephant?

I don't think it's a big secret for anyone that the US has special forces (Navy Seals or others, if those guys are actually Seals) deployed in Iraq ... it's freaking Iraq.Not really a surprise for anyone.


It's not like if they revealed the presence of the team in a country where they are not supposed to be.Like in Pakistan before the Bin Landen raid, or any other country.

Having worked with them quite a bit, you give them too much credit. Also, who is working is so fluid that there is no way they know all the officers working the details, not even close.

Well, that's actually not me but my deceased Uncle

I understand what you are saying. My questions would be.

1. Have you been vetted by your department? Have other agencies vetted their employees?
2. How difficult would it be for me to dress as someone in your department and get close to the President? How about other agencies?
3. Were you a 24 fan?

1. Yeah, much like military.
2. While we are a large department, Presidential Details are staffed by one unit where we know all know each other. So, not easy.
3. Never watched it.

Thank you for your candid answers.

I think you get my point.

24 had someone with false credentials get close enough to the president to kill him.
