    Trump is, in many respects, the anti-Kennedy. The 70-year-old Republican, who had no political experience, was the oldest person ever elected US president. Kennedy, a 43-year-old Democrat who had served in the House and the Senate, was the youngest. At the 100-day mark, Trump’s public approval rating was 41%. Kennedy’s was 83%.
    Trump was granted
    five draft deferments during the Vietnam war; Kennedy received military honors for saving the lives of crewmates when their torpedo boat was struck by a Japanese destroyer during the second world war. Trump infamously does not read books, gives disjointed speeches and has claimed: “You have to be wealthy in order to be great.” Kennedy was fond of referencing ancient Greeks and Shakespeare, won a Pulitzer prize for the book Profiles in Courage, and once declared: “This country cannot afford to be materially rich and spiritually poor.”

    JFK did abuse his fair share of young women, despite his good look

    Worse than Bengazi

    It just keeps getting worse.

    While everyone was so busy talking about the president's handling of his call to the widow of the soldier killed in Niger, they all missed the important part of that story, the part about what happened that night in Niger.

    The story that is emerging is so much worse than anything that happened in Benghazi, but the same GOP Congress that investigated Benghazi with a fury seems to have little or no interest in this story.

    Here's what we know so far...

    These soldiers went to a meeting in an area near the border with Mali. This is a well known hot spot for ISIS activity.

    Our soldiers were not backed up by US Military air support. No, they were backed up by the French, who were not authorized to intervene or even fire a shot.

    Our soldiers did not have armored vehicles. They traveled in pickup trucks.

    Our soldiers were given faulty intel that said "it was unlikely that they would meet any hostile forces." Of course, they walked into an ISIS ambush. It was chaotic and they took three casualties.

    It took the French 30 minutes to arrive. When they did they were not authorized to help. So, a dozen of our Green Berets fought a battle with more than 50 Isis fighters, without help, for 30 minutes.

    Finally, a rescue helicopter arrived, but it was not a US military helicopter. No, we apparently outsourced that job to “private contractors.” So, these contractors landed and loaded the remaining troops, the injured and the dead.

    Here's where this gets really bad...

    Because they were not military, they never did a head count. That is how Sgt. La David Johnson was left behind.

    That's right...they left him behind.

    According to the Pentagon, his locator beacon was activated on the battlefield, which indicates that he was alive when they left him there.

    They recovered his body 48 hours later but are refusing to say where. According to his widow, she was told that she could not have an open casket funeral. This indicates that he was mutilated after being left behind on the battlefield.

    This is what led to the nonsense we're obsessing over. This is the real story. As usual, you're allowing it to be about Trump's distraction, but this is Benghazi on steroids.

    The Trump Pentagon gave these men bad intel, no support, outsourced rescue people and then tried for more than a week to pretend it never happened. In that time, Trump spoke on many occasions and never mentioned it. He tweeted attacks on many but never mentioned these men. Only after pressure from the media has he bothered to even acknowledge these men and their service.

    I think the Republicans had something like NINE investigations into Benghazi, and spent millions.

    Yet on this they haven't shown a sniff of interest.

    Hypocritical, lying c u n t s.

    I see you have no links.

    Are you spreading a BS story from face book the same as you have accused many posters in the past. I suspect fake news.

    Could it possibly be they are still waiting for the facts to come in? I see they haven't blamed it on a movie.

    ^ HAHA! Clearly drumpf and his cabinet clown car lost those. Most of the government is empty and barely functioning. There will be a lot more of this to come.

    So you post this in a failed attempt to bring Benghazi back to the forefront?
    What pray tell are you trying to prove, maybe that you are an angry liberal that can't get beyond the fact your party lost the presidential election. Spreading fake news is not going to help your cause.

    He may have. Trump pretty much following the same stuff Obama did. Of course Obama pretty much did what Bush did as will the next Pres.

    As Colin Powell said prior to the Iraq invasion, “you break it, you own it”. How true. The US is mired down in the ME and will remain so until a Congress and Pres have the balls to pull every last vestage of military presence out of the region.

    Bush followed by Obama followed by Trump who is making things worse.
