I heard a hell of a lot more outrage directed at Trump from the left when he took out a guy who really was responsible for killing our troops than I've heard from them when Biden murdered innocent people including children and then had his flacks go out and lie about who they had just killed. Has Biden even been asked any questions about this by the press?
Comments
MSNBC's Chris Hayes (who questioned whether Soleimani was really a threat after Trump's successful strike) deflected blame from Biden's botched strike by tweeting, "WE HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR TWENTY YEARS," while acknowledging the details are "horrifying."
Rachel Maddow criticized the Soleimani killing, calling it an "assassination" and mocking Trump for saying "the action was to stop a war." On her September 17 show, she praised the military for its mea culpa, lauding it as "something we are not used to seeing at all." No mention of Joe Biden.
CNN pundits Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo both criticized Trump's claim that Soleimani posed an imminent threat to the U.S., quibbling over the meaning of the word "imminent," but neither has taken to Twitter to criticize Biden's failed strike. On his September 17 show, Cuomo faulted "the Pentagon" and "the Department of Defense" but had only the mildest criticism for Biden. Cuomo still found a way to fault the Trump administration, "which in 2017 relaxed the rules of engagement for airstrikes." On his September 17 show, Lemon barely even mentioned the drone strike, allowing CNN correspondent Jeff Zeleny to report on the military's press conference. No outrage, no condemnation.
