We are now less safe thanks to Trump

[gipper]

Let's see...we have the largest military, by a country mile. Yet on 9/11 a bunch of kooky Saudis managed to hijack jetliners and murder thousands of Americans, but where was our HUGE wonderful military? No where to be found.

It would seem keeping Americans safe is not a priority. Growing the power and wealth of the central government is.

gipper i dont care if even you was president at that time,9/11 would have still happened....sometimes the bad guys get a shot in,fact of life,deal with it...

Not a chance. As soon as it was known several planes were hijacked, war planes should been everywhere intercepting those planes. They never should have made it into NYC or DC airspace.

Intercepting them to do WHAT? Shoot them down?

LOL!!! Bush would have been impeached and imprisoned for mass murder, and rightfully so.


Execution would have been on the table.

They did take down 93 in Pa, but your right there was no excuse for those planes hitting the towers....and I do think we had intelligence on what was coming. Everybody dropped the ball

so if they were not given the order to do that would it still be their fault?...

Agreed.

The biggest most expensive military the world has ever known, FAILED on 9/11. Yet, no one was fired or prosecuted and it is even BIGGER today.

Dumb!

That will never happen going forward until the last minute. Passengers are going to take over and put down any takeover. They know they are dead if they don't.

Elite terrorist interrogation team withers under Trump

To many U.S. officials, it seemed like a perfect job for the High-Value Detainee Interrogation Group (HIG) — an interagency team formed by the Obama administration after a wrenching national debate over Bush-era torture practices and charged with developing humane interrogation methods based on academic research.

But the Trump administration never deployed the elite team to question the American captured in Syria, according to two sources with knowledge of the group’s deployments. The group’s exclusion rattled those who work for it, who fear its days could be numbered under a president who has openly endorsed the torture of terror suspects. In the last week alone, two members of the group’s critical research arm announced their departure, and warned colleagues the organization was in danger.

“We run the risk of losing this innovative and important instrument of national power,” said Bobby Chesney, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin who has advised the U.S. government on detainee policy. “It’s such an obviously good idea. But it also treads on the turf of several agencies. What’s likely to happen if it doesn’t have strong institutional support? It will lose budget and personnel, and no one will push back.”

Sources involved or familiar with the organization who spoke to POLITICO warned that its absence in the case of the American captured in Syria is just the latest sign, dating back to the late Obama era, that the HIG has struggled to win support throughout the turf-conscious U.S. law enforcement and intelligence establishments.

When will the dopes realize Trump is the opposite of everything he says...

He's not smart, a winner, or a deal maker.

He's liar, a cheat, a thief, and a puss-grabber...

At least he didnt trade 5 high level terrorists for a traitor.

... Or give Iran $33.6 Billion in Cash, Gold

... or $221 Million to the Palestinians

-- or $500 million to the corrupt UN green climate fund on his way out of the whitehouse door

.... Trump also knows there are 50 states and not 54 as Obama seems to believe...

Unfortunately, without a bold and charismatic leader most will just cower and pray for the best, or hope for another few minutes of life. That's why they have officers with leadership qualities in the military.

Republicans have no clue about how to conduct foreign relations or use the military. They always act like a 7 year old with his dad's BB gun.

That your dad owned a BB gun is telling....

That you've never heard that saying it moronic. And again, can't defend the point so change the subject and deflect. Cons you really need to get a new schtick by now.

Thats not a saying.

And whose deflecting? I've made my position clear and took some time to mock you....sue me.

The fact thzt we take terrorists alive for interrogation to begin with disgusts me. The only interrogators we need come from the muzzle of a gun.

I'm all for capturing them alive....then torturing the shit out of them and wringing every bit of intel out of them until they beg to be put down like the dogs they are.

Good good, it was ridiculous anyway. At least he doesn't return them to the battlefield like jughead did.

Edit: Wow! I just clicked the link and it pops right up a picture of the number one terrorist affecting the USA.

They should torture Terrorist with pictures of Hillary and Obama speeches.

That would definitely be against the Geneva Convention.

Lessee------ he's the opposite of Obama in every way and Obama did the opposite of everything he said, so that must make everything Trump does right on target! As to not being smart, a winner, or a deal maker, I couldn't agree more, that is, except for the 50 odd years Trump has spent winning at very smart deals.

I know for a fact that every time my neighbor's Rottweiler heard Hillary's laugh on TV, he went berserk, and they could barely control him. Lost two good TV's that way. I can only imagine the torture of his sensitive ears hearing that hideous cackle---- I know I still have bad dreams about it.

The first paragraph is about the stupidest thing the Obarfa administration could have done in regards to prisoner interrogation. "....humane interrogation methods based on academic research....." Has any of our enemies ever subscribed to these "academically researched methods?" Or do they get really vicious and tickle a prisoner into talking?
What's really a pisser is the fact that in training, U.S. soldiers can be water boarded, sleep deprived and a host of other techniques but we can't do it to an enemy who would cut off your head if the shoe was on the other foot. Thanks to the Kenyan Muslim sympathizer. Screw him for eternity with a pitchfork handle.
