Once again! We have those who have no clue!!!! [View all]

There was two guys talking at the truck stop I was in earlier tonight. They said that Trump should never be held responsible for the 4 soldiers killed. Then they both agreed that the GOP has not gone far enough to find proof to bring Hillary up on charges for Benghazi. I was not only shocked to hear this! There was older man sitting close to them and must have over heard them talking too? He got up and went to their table and asked if they really knew what they were talking about or were they just idiots? He told them if they would have been educated about the these events, they would have know that these bad things happens all to often and that known the facts would help them understand that the president is the one who is responsible for these issues no matter what! He said Obama was the president when Benghazi happened and Trump was the president when Niger happened. He went on to say when 9-11 happened, Bush was the president so on and so on! He ended the statement with, if you want to blame Hillary for something, maybe you should have voted for her and not the over blown self-righteous idiot that is president now! Then he walked away, but turned back when one said "who the hell are you"? He answered "I am the uncle of one of the soldiers who was killed in Iraq in 2006"! And then he walked away saying "that is who hell I am"!
