You ignored the last part of my statement… Way to parce it out

108

So you don’t think Trump is a dumbass?

Serious question.

109

Trump is the top of the chain of those who make that decision. You are questioning that.

110

That’s his/her speciality.

It was based on the TDS part I cited.

(It’s “parsed”, BTW.)

113

It’s not serious. You made that up.

114

Of the total number of people who have received this particular medal, how many recipients does Trump want their medals rescinded?

115

Google probably knows. Not sure why you’re asking me.

116

Ok, if you say so. You spend a lot of time in Special Operations?

117

Nobody busts their ass to get an achievement medal.

118

Meanwhile, people actually bust their asses and often times, all they get is an Achievement Medal.

These lawyers almost got the same medal for showing up to work as people who deployed to combat zones for a year or more.

That’s been happening forever… I’ve seen cooks get NAMs before other Ratings… It’s not up to the President

120

Oh, it most certainly is. You’re just butthurt because, Trump.

121

So, you think soldiers should be allowed to ignore orders and the code of conduct simply because we’ve trained them to be killers?

That doesn’t seem like a wise way to run things. But what do I know? I’ve never been in special ops.

122

Just like anywhere else in society there are lesser men who break the law; no excuses.

123

And getting involved at most a likely Battalion level situation.

No it’s not… For someone who claims to be in the military you don’t understand the chain of command

That’s not what he was saying.

There’s an old saying that applies to just about every situation. War included.

■■■■ happens.

When you put human beings in the most stressful situation possible, combat with other human beings, things that you and I don’t like are going to happen.

Surrendering personnel are shot at times. Sometimes it’s not even intentional. It’s just the heat of the moment.

Perhaps he snapped. The guy may have killed one of his comrades and he just snapped.

You put a person in that sort of situation for months and months on end and sometimes things don’t turn out the way they are supposed to.

I’m not in the military and don’t claim to be.

Trump out-ranks everyone in the military. He says rescind the order, the order gets rescinded. 17 year old recruits understand this before they even get through MEPS. Some of them are children who haven’t even graduated school yet. Why don’t you?

I like the personal attack. Again it is beneath the presidency to do this. But hey he drives the liberals mad so some people are cool with it. Again this could be handled by the CNO or even lower
