General Bone Spurs: ISIS leader 'died like a coward'

"He died like a dog. He died like a coward ..." Trump said.

...saying the ISIS leader "spent his last moments in utter fear, in total panic and dread, terrified of the American forces bearing down on him."

Trump described al-Baghdadi as, "crying, whimpering, screaming, and bringing three kids with him. To die. Certain death."

Trump said al-Baghdadi was chased to the end of a dead end tunnel by dogs,
bringing three children with him. At the end of the tunnel, he detonated a suicide vest, killing himself and the children with him.

More like Private Bonespurs. You have to have courage to rise to the rank of general. Spanky has shown us and the Kurds what the term cut and run really means.

how does Dolt 45 know he cried and whimpered? And since he was paralyzed from previous injuries and couldn't walk, how was he able to run down a tunnel?

If he ran anywhere it's either a miracle or another Trump fabrication. Maybe it wasn't even Baghdadi.
