More proof that Trump is derelict in his duty as Commander in Chief

[LonePirate]

Trump is completely oblivious that 4 US troops died in Lithuania

Trump was asked about the four missing and now reported as dead US soldiers in Lithuania. He said he had not heard anything about them.

Combine this with his absence from the Signal group chat where pretty much all of the power players in the administration except him were involved and you start to wonder if he has abandoned his Commander in Chief duties, the #1 priority of the President.

While this should be no surprise to any of us here at DU, surely we have some elected officials somewhere who will start beating the drum about how he is AWOL from his duties. I'd say the media should be covering this; but they have largely failed America for the past decade and I don't see that changing any time soon.

1. Oh, but he has managed to find time

For 8 out of 9 weeks for golf, a Superbowl, NCAA Wrestling Championship, and a UFC bout!

[BOSSHOG]

2. I've not heard that

I’m just now finding out about it by you. They did what? And on and on. To put it another way, if you work for trump, he doesn’t have your back. He’s already washed his hands.

3. So who is running things? Musk wasn't on the call.

4. GENGHAZI!!!!!

I guess we’re now supposed to ignore four dead soldiers since Asshat is in office.

5. Of course he is derelict

I hear President Musk is going to investigate the Hegseth Signal fiasco.

7. When I first read that I thought it was The Onion

6. Stephen Miller is running the Country

8. Guess either he's stopped 'Daily Briefings' or his Cabinet is too incompetent to produce them.

9. Four dead in Libya resulted in many investigations of Hillary for many millions$.

Four soldiers killed by Trump in Niger resulted in Donald saying: 'they knew what they signed up for'.

10. TSF farms it out

1. Muskrat does all the financial shit
2. JD does the foreign relations and any needed couch fucking
3. The other sickophants are just there to lick his taint
4. That leaves TSF plenty of time to golf and fantasize about being a King 👑

11. Boy, he sure doesn't seem to know anything about anything, 'eh?
