Russian bounty-gate is actually Obama's fault

[WTH_Progs?]

What a bummer, it was hot to blame Trump for stuff and stuff like that, but turns out it was Obama's fault for allowing it.

Officials: Russian bounty reports follow years of Kremlin support to Taliban

As early as 2016, U.S. intelligence officials were receiving credible reports that the Russian government was funding the Taliban. Now those reports have taken on new relevance.

Oblama allowed it? How was anyone going to stop it?

He's POTUS ab

Russian bounty-gate is actually Obama's fault

Lol, of course it is!

That's the conservitard technique, as soon as you are caught doing something blame it on Obama or someone in his administration and say they did it first.

AWESOME, welcome to calling your bluff. Tell everyone who was caught and what they were caught doing. You received a thumb's up from Care4all, surely one of you can support your FEEEEELINGS. GO!

"Rep. Seth Moulton, a former Marine Corps officer, accused President Trump of "treason" on Wednesday over reports that Russia paid bounties to Afghan fighters to kill American soldiers and the White House took no action in response.

Moulton, a former platoon commander in Iraq, said if he led his Marines into an ambush because he failed to read an intelligence report he would be in prison. The Massachusetts Democrat questioned why the commander-in-chief is not held to the same standard."

It is sad that a former marine Corp officer is attacking the President of the United States - the Commander and Chief - based on yet another unsubstantiated Fake News narrative.

As far as his strawman example above, as a platoon commander he would never have been given an unsubstantiated Intel report regarding who was FUNDING an ambush. He would have been warned, however, if Intel thought he and his men were at risk of walking into an ambush.

Senator Moulton's comments accomplished nthing mpre than'feeding the beast', providing more false-narrative propaganda comments for the Trump-hating Fake News to feed to the sheep.

Even FOX News has corroborating sources. Sounds like the Pentagon is full of it.
Three NATO members said they were also briefed.

Using the excuse that the briefer didn't tell him is just that: an excuse.

 

[basquebromance]

reporting from Politico:

"Veterans of the Trump administration have described a president prone to explosions of anger when the subject of Russia arises; even former national security adviser John Bolton, not known to be shy, confesses in his new memoir that he never asked Trump for his personal assessment of Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin, “perhaps afraid of what I might hear.”"

So...your argument is that Obama - being the worst most corrupt President in history according to Republicans - is an acceptable measure for Trump to aspire to?
If corrupt, inept, treasonous Obama did corrupt, inept and treasonous things then it's OK for the greatest ever President to do the same.

well Obama did cower to Iranians when they put a bounty on the heads of American soldiers in 2010 what do you think the Russians are going to do

So that makes it all good for Trump to ignore it and actually try to get favours for Russia - because Obama did it?

Navy report: Failure at every level for US ships captured by Iran

A devastating new report by military investigators released Thursday found that the 10 sailors captured by Iranians in January suffered from "failed leadership" at all levels on a mission that was plagued by mistakes from beginning to end.

I'm questioning why Trump apologists are using the argument that since Trump is meeting the same standards of corruption, treason and ineptitude as the previous President then he's doing a great job.

When Trump took over we shouldn't have still been in Afghanistan. It's a given that Trump would bumble but if not for the incompetent actions of Bush and Obama he never gets the chance.
