The president is the commander in chief.
The speaker of the house and other assorted political operatives are not in the military chain of command. So they had no need to know what was going on. Thus, they found out about it when we all did as news reports came out.
Why is the focus NOT on the success of the mission, rather than these side issues of who was kept out of the loop? Why does any of that matter if the mission was a success?
It matters to CNN and those Dem’s who weren’t informed first so they could leak it before it happened.
President Trump just showed the entire world what REAL leadership is all about.
This was an extremely hazardous operation. If it went south and ended badly it would have added jet fuel to the demented democrat’s illegitimate impeachment effort.
This was President Trump’s finest moment and I could not be more proud of him and the American military members that pulled it off flawlessly.
