On Saturday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “PoliticsNation,” 2020 Democratic presidential candidate former Vice President Joe Biden questioned President Trump’s account of the decision to not strike Iran by saying that the military doesn’t work that way.
Biden said, “If, in fact, the military did not brief him…[on] what was happening, I just don’t believe it. The military doesn’t do that. They sit down and say, Mr. President, do you want us to do A? … This is the consequence. Your decision, Mr. President. We recommend or not. But the idea that they would say to him when he said, go ahead and bomb and take out whatever they were going to take out and not tell him what the consequences would be, not possible. Simply not possible. The military does not function that way, whether or not there is a secretary of Defense.”

Biden, a little slow on the uptake and a day late, as usual. The man just keeps self-destructing like a drunk millennial carrying a flaming torch and a box of fireworks at an anti-4th of July protest.
He will either melt down like Chernobyl or explode like Mt. St. Helens.
Either way, he’s going to blow up good or melt down like a dog pissed-on snowman.
From all the times that he, as V.P., ordered airstrikes, dontcha know?
Regards,
I think what happened is he approved the strike package and at the last minute, his better angel thought it overkill and he called the Mullahs, telling them to look at their radar and the destruction coming their way.
We have the ability to prosecute any action and make them consider the consequences.
We then turned back...2ith a warming
Unless Uncle Joe was actually in the meeting with the Military and advisors he could not possible know what happened.....old Joe is way too old and out of touch.
I am not jumping into the weeds and parsing the facts, but Trump screamping there is War, Biden claiming there is not war, and the continued fact there is no war is a pretty good indication the Vice President came out right on this one.
