Esper says Trump ordered him to stop SEAL review board

Donny just can't help himself from sticking his grubby little fingers into things about which he knows nothing.

He did have the dog that helped corner beard boy over to the WH. It was him yelling,, "LOOK A DOG!" instead of, "LOOK A SQUIRREL!" The purpose was thevsame: to deflect from the political woes his incompetence has gotten himself into.

This absolutely stinks. Everyone seems to be lying. The only truth is that Gallagher committed war crimes and should lose not only his trident but his retirement benefits as well.

Trump should not have been involved at all. Period.

The president is the commander in chief.

An unfortunate reality that a draft dodger who's long disparaged those who've served (bragging about avoiding STDs while his fellow countrymen were being killed and maimed as HIS FELLOW PRIVILEGED CLASS 'ELITE' GOT RICHER from the war, attacked gold star families, etc.) whose knowledge of the military comes from the military reform school his rich daddy sent him to is the commander in chief.

Excellent article.

Well reported so people understand multiple aspects.

The Navy was correct.

Trump did the wrong thing, but it is his right, legally.

Keep chipping away at that "To-Do" list Putin gave you Donnie - you've wrecked the State Dept, now you'e working on the Defense Dept.

You're destroying all the elements of the US that fight and keep Russia in check...

No Nobel Prize, but Putin will definitely give you the Order of Leningrad...

Trump gave a DOG a medal and a plaque. And you still can’t beat him.

And in Trumper's minds, these two are obviously linked...

Didn't he call Omarossa and Cohen a dog too?

Yes, but Conan is a much better dog. As she got a medal -and- a plaque.

Great move, proud of this President!

His championing of a cowardly war criminal stinks, like everything else about him.

Good dogs, bad dogs - I guess Trump runs around with dogs....

Doesn't speak well of Melania...

I'm surprised the dog didn't take a hunk out of Trump, I mean he must smell like Big Macs...

Well, that’s too bad, if the big wigs at the Pentagon want to inject and run the military with Washington political bureaucracy then we can’t have a true functioning military.

Anyone with military friends should be telling them that this is what the Trumpets are saying about them.

All the military people I know are extremely happy for Chief Gallagher. He couldnt get a fair deal because all of the civilians above him were trying to virtue signal by hanging him out to dry. Undue command influence led to him being jailed in the first place.

The last guy did military pardons too, you know?

blacklabel - "... He couldnt get a fair deal because all of the civilians above him..."

You have been following this case from the start haven't you?

I mean back over the years.

And the involvement of the military in his conviction, you know judge accordingly to the law by his peers.

Gallagher is not a war criminal. However Bergdahl is a deserter and fellow soldiers were killed and injured looking for him. The Obama administration made Bergdahl out to be a brave war hero when he is clearly the opposite. The American people can see the difference and Trump comes out ahead in that comparison.
