The same thing happened with the failed Syria mission trumps first week in WH. trump approved that failure!

Enemy knew they were coming hours in advance, yet the mission moved on and many died, seriously wounded-including our special forces military!

The current "commander in chief" is a FAILURE and should be removed/impeached on that basis alone!
