glennward's JournalSome are saying the Khan incident was a political trap for Trump and he took the bait.
OK, if it was a "trap" they obviously weren't smart enough to recognize it. And that alone is proof that Trump should never be President. Putin could bait him into doing anything.
Joy Reid needs to conduct a clinic in journalism for the folks at CNN and others on MSNBC
They keep allowing the pundits, without challenge, to say that Khan's son was killed by "radical Islamic terrorists." The spread of ISIS and the Obama and Hillary's foreign policy. The FACTS are that Khan's son was killed in 2004 in Iraq. It WAS NOT RADICAL ISLAMIC TERRORIST BUT ISLAMIC SOLDIERS DEFENDING THEIR HOMELAND WHICH WAS INVADED BY US MILITARY UNDER GEORGE BUSH.
It drives me nuts when they are allowed conflate what is happening now with what actually happened then. And on CNN the military spokesperson even connected it to HILLARY'S INVASION OF LIBYA.
No one calls them on this bs. Hillary, nor any other Secretary of State, has or had the power to order troops to invade anywhere. Obama has been President for the past 7 1/2 years. The attacks on Libya, though I did not agree with it, were not against a "friendly" country nor did it create ISIS which grew out of the disgruntled and vindictive remnants of our invasion of Iraq and its aftermath. I can fault Hillary for her favoring the policy decision ,among the many options available to the President, to attack Libya but at all times the President and his team had and still have much more intelligence available to them AND the advice and intelligence of our allies.
To allow these weak, seemingly pro-Trump talking heads to get away allowing with such mis-information and some lies is harmful to us as a nation.
