'This is not the way the military is run'
Trump : 'Bitch, I'm commander-in-chief, it' s run how I say it's run'
Fun imagination - imagine a private saying that a drill sergeant.
The POTUS being Commander in Chief, was created to deal with Admirals like this. He just doesn't like that an elected civilian has the ultimate power in the Military.
He's another Deep State seditious bastard, upset we have a POTUS that steps in exactly like the Founding Fathers wanted, to reign in powerful military leaders.
My thanks to POTUS for stranding his ground. The SEAL in question was railroaded by his junior officers for holding them to his own high standards. Just as the Deep State Navy is going after Trump for doing the right thing here.
Bravo Mr. President for showing them that it is OUR United States Navy, not theirs!
You nailed it. That’s why President Trump is a Leader. Not afraid to take a risk, not too timid to speak the truth; he wades into mobs of enlisted with exuberant affection, and if some cabinet-level Secretary of [insert force here] exhibits deep state tendencies...
Trump don’t play.
You got down voted by some shill, so I gave you my up vote to give you some love and make that (0) change to a (1). It is the least I can do for your kind reply and affirmation of my points made above. Thank you, sincerely!
I was LOLing at his comments about following military tradition and rules...blah blah blah...because...you know, refusing to take orders from your commander falls under exactly what he was whining about.
No way could this guy be vindictively saying these things after just getting fired. No way that would EVER happen. EVER!!
I half want to checkout /r/navy and see what they think.
But that place was taken over by shills a long time ago (and I'm not one to throw around the "shill" label)
DJT = The CIMFC.
The (former) Swampetary is a disgrace to the greatest Navy on the planet. Had the option to exhibit some dignity when he got benched. Rejected that option, and went to the press with bullshit. Fucking Antonio Clown syndrome.
> This is not the way the military is run
...after trying a WARFIGHTER, IN THEATER, FOR MURDER, OF AN ENEMY COMBATANT!
It sure as hell should not have been run that way (Thanks Obama!). Our troops should not have to worry over how they kill the enemy. The enemy should be worried about how our troops will kill them. When you mess with the bull, you get the horns!
Oh! and I know he took a damn selfie with the body after! I could give a shit! I wouldn't give a shit if he attached strings to the body and put on a marionette show with it! That guy needed killing.
He didn’t even kill the guy. It was another from his team. That’s what makes the murder charge even dumber than it already was.
This ^
...probably had a lot to do with why he was acquitted of most of the charges
They only found him guilty of "wrongfully posing" ...WTF?!
I'm glad you brought up this asshat again. Remember President Trump's tweet from Nov. 24th? There was something important in there that kind of got overlooked.

"...large cost overruns from past administration’s contracting procedures were not addressed to my satisfaction. "
Spencer is likely another swamp rat who's been stealing taxpayer money through 'contractors'
But the crook just can't keep his mouth shut. Typical.
> Spencer is likely another swamp rat
He spent twenty years on Wall Street. What do you think?
OK. That explains everything.
Well, there’s your problem!
I think he's a piece of shit.
Implying big hunks of missing money, still going missing? Hmm. Maybe that was the real start of the hubris.
Notice how the MSM Fake News left out a VERY important detail.
They left it out multiple times.
The Navy Secretary did not simply ask the President to stay out of it he 'asked' him to stay out and they would allow Gallagher to retire with his Trident.
Which is another way of saying, stay out of it or else we will do this (a threat).
That is what got this piece of shit fired, he threatened the President and when he carried out the threat he got fired.
The Fake News left that out.
He will be hired by CNN.
I’ll have to take your word on the article because I won’t be giving NBC any clicks
