2020 Democrats mostly refrain from crediting Trump in Baghdadi’s death

Following President Donald Trump’s announcement on Sunday that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi died during a US military raid in northwest Syria, a number of Democrats hoping to unseat him welcomed the news and congratulated US troops, but were mum on Trump’s involvement in the risky operation.

In a statement, former Vice President Joe Biden congratulated “our special forces, our intelligence community, and all our brave military professionals on delivering justice” to Baghdadi. Author Marianne Williamson offered in a tweet “Praise and thanks for the military bravery and brilliance that carried out the mission,” and former Maryland Rep. John Delaney wrote on Twitter that he’s “grateful for the brave patriots who risked their lives to advance our safety and security.”

With Trump and Republicans likely to characterize the mission as a defining moment of his presidency ahead of next year’s election, the lack of attention placed on his role in the operation could provide insight into how the field of candidates plan to discuss the news in the coming weeks and months.

They’re all in mourning because the communist SOBs created ISIS to start with. They should all get the same treatment that the POS got. They’ve more than outed themselves as to whose side they’re on and it sure as hell isn’t America’s.
They are nothing but de-facto domestic terrorists for supporting these murderous POSs. Lock em all up in GITMO and throw away the keys...like forever.

If 9/11 was on POTUS Trump’s watch,he would be blamed and the left would agree with Bin Laden’s manifesto. This is how f*cked up the left is.

Listen, FReepers, if you don’t want that AR or AK in your safe to be your sole defense against the totalitarian Deep State, you’d better support PDJT now and vote for him a year from now.

The twenty worthless b@stards who call themselves Democrat candidates could not, not a single one, credit PDJT for making the decision to take out Abubakr Al-Baghdad-Bob.

Civil War II has already started. Shots fired will come sooner rather than later. Govern yourselves accordingly.

How many of these candidates would have leaked the operation to their favorite mass media outlet if they had been briefed in advance?

My guess—_all_ of them except Tulsi.
