He has probably never met McRaven.
When a reporter asked him just now if he would apologize to Admiral McRaven, He replied, "I don't know Adm. McRaven."
He just told a BOLD FACE lie.
Seriously, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS MAN? He can not tell the truth.
He has probably never met McRaven.
He said, "I don't KNOW Admiral McRaven."
The man can't tell the truth. Every single time he gets asked a question, he lies. He also said he has NO DEALINGS with Saudi Arabia... despite the fact they bought an ENTIRE FLOOR in Trump Tower, bought one of his yachts, and spend hundreds of thousands of dollars at his hotels. He can not tell the truth.
He has probably never met McRaven.

teflon don can make 2 completely opposite, contradictory statements and convince his apologists that he told the truth both times.
face it, his apologists are dumbos...donny is a complete embarrassment to our country.
As one might expect, Trump’s comments have drawn bipartisan outrage. “Adm. McRaven is not a partisan individual. He’s a decorated former SEAL … who served his nation, not a party. I believe he is speaking out because he feels a moral obligation to do so, and note that Pres. Trump said nothing to refute Adm. McRaven’s criticism,” said Sen. Jack Reed (D-CT). “I don’t know if Adm. William McRaven shares my political views or not,” Sen Marco Rubio (R-FL) tweeted Monday morning, failing, of course, to mention the president by name. “But I do know that few Americans have sacrificed or risked more than he has to protect America & the freedoms we enjoy. His military career exemplified honor & excellence. I am grateful for his service.” Retired Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling wasn’t so coy, calling Trump’s comments “disgusting.”
McRaven responded later on Sunday. “I did not back Hillary Clinton or anyone else,” he told CNN’s Jake Tapper. “I am a fan of President Obama and President George W. Bush, both of whom I worked for. I admire all Presidents, regardless of their political party, who uphold the dignity of the office and who use that office to bring the Nation together in challenging times.”
He added that he stands by his comments regarding Trump's attacks on the free press.
Anyone else notice that Trump has yet to visit troops in a war zone?
His excuses? He's been "too busy". Or, (and this is my favorite), he says that he doesn't want to visit troops in wars that he doesn't agree with. He's the freaking president for crying out loud. You get the job, you handle what is given you. Obama didn't agree with Afghanistan, but he still visited troops over there.
Face it...................Trump only cares about the military when he can use them as political props like he did at the southern border.
Trump Hasn’t Visited the Troops in a War Zone Because ‘He’s Afraid’
Last month, President Trump was asked why he hasn’t visited a military base in a combat zone. He offered two explanations. He’s “very busy” at home, he said, and he doesn’t “think it’s overly necessary.”
Last week, the New York Times reported on a third excuse. Trump, aides told the Times, does not believe American troops should be in Afghanistan or Iraq and he fears a visit to the countries “would validate missions he does not truly believe in.”
He has probably never met McRaven.

So, McRaven attacked the President, the President attacked back, and put it out of his mind.
What's the problem?

The two reasons offered by Trump seem reasonable.
Perspective | I served under 8 commanders in chief. Trump doesn’t grasp the role.

I might be able to believe he's been too busy, that is, if he wasn't playing golf damn near every weekend.
As far as not wanting to validate conflicts he doesn't believe in? Hey, he's president of the whole country, and all the problems that come with it, he can't cherry pick what he wants to govern and what he doesn't.
