Now the little bitch just has his Twitter.
This is just factually wrong. ISIS had lost the vast majority of its territory in Iraq and the Mosul operation began under Obama.
From his Twitter feed, he lies.
We think the Iraq War should have ended. We see nothing for Barack Obama or Donald Trump to take pride in.
That said, Ben Rhodes pissed off US generals. He acted as if he were president. Barack abdicated his own role as commander-in-chief and allowed Ben Rhodes to order the military around.
So if we're talking about progress -- as defined by Bitch Benny and Donald -- Trump is correct.
Do you know who that is?
Bitch Benny Rhodes does.
It's Lt. Gen. Stephen Townsend.
He doesn't miss Bitch Benny.
And he gave credit to Donald.
This is from his August press briefing:
MAJ. RANKINE-GALLOWAY: Tony Capaccio with Bloomberg.
Q: Hi, sir.
We have heard in Washington that the White House has decentralized decision-making -- tactical decision-making down to your level and below, more than the Obama administration had. Brett McGurk has laid this out a few times in Washington.
Can you give a couple of practical examples of how this decentralization has helped in your campaign to so-call annihilate ISIS? And then I have a follow-up on a different subject.
GEN. TOWNSEND: Okay. I will say that the current administration has pushed decision-making down into the military chain of command. And I don't know of a commander in our armed forces that doesn't appreciate that. I'll -- I'll prefer not to go into specific examples.
I will say that probably a key result of that is that we don't get second-guessed a lot. Our judgment here on the battlefield in the forward areas is trusted. And we don't get 20 questions with every action that happens on the battlefield and every action that we take.
And again, I think every commander that I know of appreciates being given the authority and responsibility, and then the trust and backing to implement that. So, that's what I'll say.
You had a follow-up question?
[. . .]
MAJ. RANKINE-GALLOWAY: Next, to Jennifer Griffin from Fox News.
Q: Hi, General Townsend.
Your time in Iraq has overlapped two administrations in the fight against ISIS. Can you tell us what the biggest difference in the last six months, in terms of being a commanding general and the way the ISIS fight was pursued -- how different it is from the prior administration? What is the biggest difference for you as a commander?
GEN. TOWNSEND: Well, I think that some of the differences -- look, both administrations, as would any U.S. administration -- both administrations were, I think, all-in on defeating ISIS in this region. That's why this CJTF was stood up three years ago.
So I think that is common to both, and -- and macro, I think, the approach has been very similar. There are some specific instances which I kind of talked about with an earlier -- an answer to an earlier question, that I think the current administration has empowered the chain of command to make more decisions on their own, and has then given top cover to the chain of command, I think, for the decisions that are being made. And I think that's important.
And that has -- just that alone has effects that reverberate throughout a military organization when they feel like they've been given the -- the authority and the trust to act and act aggressively. Then commanders now don't -- aren't constantly calling back to higher headquarters asking for permission, but they're free to act. And I think that's probably very empowering for any commander in our armed forces.
The military is quite clear on the difference before and after Barack.
Ben Rhodes 'forgets' that reality.
Again, we're not applauding the destruction of Iraq.
But we are saying Benny Bitch needs to stop lying.
