Obama and Clinton are two of the worst people ever to occupy high office in the US, and there’s nothing bad about them that I wouldn’t believe.

But the introduction of US forces into unplanned urban combat in a third world hellhole against forces of unknown size and unknown deployment is completely and entirely discretionary for the Commander in Chief. It’s not his duty, he’s under no obligation to do it.

Anyone who voted for “Obama” would have known he wouldn’t order a rescue. There are no Hillary supporters who will change their minds because of this.

For goodness sake! Carter couldn’t rescue the Iranian hostages with six months of planning and a much stronger military than we have now.

That’s why this is not an election issue. I always say “nobody cares”, but I really mean “nobody who is not already voting for Trump will switch over this issue”.

It’s finished, and has been for years.

All true. In saying that, it isn’t an election issue. It is a character issue. Someone who is responsible for all of this saying, “what difference does this make?” is not fit to command US troops. It demonstrates that our ability to project strength from anywhere in the world becomes a hollow threat that our enemies will use to their advantage.

When added to every other lie that she has told over the course of her career, why would any ally want to stay partners with us and any enemy believe our rhetoric? That is the issue.

It has consequence if it proves Hillary was arming ISIS through Libya and her and cronies were profiting from it.
