Quote:I get the point regarding accepting responsibility for people under you. The fact of the matter is, the OP and the article are making a big deal out of nothing. You know, the whole mountain-mole hill thing.


My original three points stand regarding the title of this thread and what the topic is about.


1. It was a special forces operation. Sometimes [BAD WORD REMOVED] happens.


2. The mission was planned before Trump even became President.


3. He didn't blame Obama.


Those three points are FACT and refute the claim that the President "got a guy killed and blames 0bama".


There is a lot that goes into planning and executing a special operations mission like this. Where is the real fault/blame? Bad intelligence? Poor timing? Poor execution? The bottom line as I said is that sometimes [BAD WORD REMOVED] happens in an operation like this. Accepting responsibility is one thing, accepting blame is another.
