    What do you think Trump has done to make that happen? 

    I like the last line of this article;
     BAGHDAD — Five senior Islamic State officials have been captured, including a top aide to the group’s leader, in a complex cross-border sting carried out by Iraqi and American intelligence, two Iraqi officials said Wednesday.

    The three-month operation, which tracked a group of senior Islamic State leaders who had been hiding in Syria and Turkey, represents a significant intelligence victory for the American-led coalition fighting the extremist group and underscores the strengthening relationship between Washington and Baghdad.


    You think that is Trump's doing?
    The guy who watches 3 hours of news and requires his intelligence briefing to be bullet pointed and read aloud in half that time (half being generous)???

    Did you also believe Trump when he said the unemployment rate was 20 or 30% on the campaign trail?

    It’s going to be interesting to see how Muqtada Sadr’s election victories, with less than 50% participation, and Team Trump Treason’s jettison of the Iran deal plays out. Couple that with the embassy move and we’ll see how the Saudis step up. Good luck with the guy who’s smarter than all his generals.

    I am always pleasantly surprised when I stumble onto the collective idiocy, oblivious assholier than thou attitudes, and the wah wah wah victimhood of Fox News and it's poor misinformed viewers. 

    Who am I to judge though?

    why does everyone give obama credit for bin laden but give trump zero credit when high ranking ISIS militants are captured/killed? you can't have both. did trump have anything to do with it? doubtful, but he likely still had to be in on it and possibly give his blessing. I highly doubt Obama was in on the planning of capturing bin laden. he merely listened to his generals and gave the ok to go in and got a picture taken while he watched it on tv.

    You would be correct.  Just finished "the operator" and Obama had nothing to do with the planning or intelligence gathering of capturing Bin Laden.  He was given several options and in the end gave the go for the mission.

    It's tough to play devil's advocate in this thread. For good reason, the hatred runs deep for McDonald Trump.

    I hate poopy pants as much as the next guy, but the venom spit at Scruffy in the last few pages has been excessive in my opinion.

    That’s because it’s lop-sided in here.  It’s 1,000 against 1. Anyone who utters one word that is not pure hatred for trump is chastised. It’s kind of pathetic.

    I think it’s safe to say that Obama listened to the options presented by the officers, discussed the pros and cons, weighed the options and gave the go ahead for his choice. It’s unlikely that the same can be said of Trump.

    One made capturing or killing Osama a priority from his very first day in office and followed up every morning with requests for status updates via his PDB. Team Trump Treason probably doesn’t even know who these guys are. He watches Fox News for 3 hours and speaks with Sean Hannity every night. Team Trump Treason ain’t got no time for this.

    My god are you serious?
    Yes the majority of you hate Trump and think he's an idiot but he's a successful businessman who's a freaking billionaire, who beat out 15 (?) other republican candidates and beat Clinton.  He is definitely not as dumb as some of you make him out to be.  Yes he should put down his twitter account and he sucks at public speaking but I do think he's a very smart man. 
    You guys all have fun just agreeing with each other.

    Same can be said of those that don’t give Obama an ounce of credit for anything. Like bringing 13 hostages back from NK. Or just maybe having common decency, professionalism, empathy and actually got things done for the best interests of the country, despite, “our number one priority is to see this president fail,” and not his ego.
