He had one job.

He had one job. Just read the damn teleprompter.

 A script was written for him to tell the American people about the killing of one of our most wanted terrorist, and about the greatness of our military fighters, and how thankful we are as a nation for their service. 

Sadly, Mr. trump could not even get that right. In a rambling news conference which went way beyond his script, Mr.trump bragged and lied about predicting what Osama bin Laden would do on September 11th,and that it might have been prevented if we had listened to him. He thanked the Russians before he thanked the brave men who risked their lives to kill al- Baghdadi. He gave away sensitive intel secrets which might have put the lives of operatives working for us in the region in jeopardy. He lied about what the terrorist were doing when he died, and he lied about what he was doing when the operation started. (Heck even the  photo of  the operation room might have been staged.) And finally, he refused to tell members of Congress (including Speaker Pelosi) about the raid.

In his mind, of course, trump thought that he did a great job. So much so that he made a rare public appearance outside of one of his staged Klan political rallies. He went to the 5th game of the World Series, and he did so hoping to bask in the glory of  the capture of al-Baghdadi. He was wrong. I think I am still hearing the boos and the chants of "lock him up" coming from down Interstate 95.

I am quite sure that every person in that stadium last night was happy and pleased that the world's most wanted terrorist was killed. What they were not pleased about was a selfish and narcissistic president taking the opportunity for self-aggrandizement at the expense of the great soldiers who carried out the mission.
