Thank you for the link. don’t forget that there is a 12 hour time difference between Singapore and Washington, DC. Thus 5am there is 5pm here. I think the time difference is a factor and that the President was at Camp David rather in the White House. He may have gotten an initial brief of ‘an accident happened’ and not much else before he was asked the question. I don’t see the President at making “cheap shots” or being ‘insensitive’ toward the military...that is the entire view of his predecessor.
I absolutely believe Trump cares about the military.
Your chain of command post is interesting . Just wondered how much time lags in getting information..and how much gets kept from them as normal course of business. Not everything is an emergency need to know ASAP kind of thing
