Picture, in your mind, a guy who takes military bunkers
and turns them into luxury doomsday survival condos. He looks exactly like this guy, right?

Now they just have to capture the 100 others that were released when we pulled out of Syria.

Don't yell or hit.
Longstanding White House protocol dictates that after military raids are conducted, the President gives details to Congressmen of both parties before informing the American public. Of course we have a President who never follows protocol. Oн предатель.

Upon being cornered by US troops on October 27, ISIL caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and three of his children ran into a tunnel. Al-Baghdadi then detonated a suicide vest. At a press conference, Trump said al-Baghdadi was "whimpering and crying and screaming all the way." It wasn't true.

They had that same pic on the CNN version of the story, with video.
My takeaway from it was I thought it was cool President Obama and that other guy stood out in the rain for a few mins before the Marines came over with the umbrellas. IDK, it seems to me that the President is too important to be rained on and that Marine should have been there from the beginning, not his fault but poor planning by aides. The President shouldn't have to ask for an umbrella.
Another thing I've learned recently, as I've been pulling Marine-type umbrella carrying duty quite often these days, is that black women with straight hair are really adverse to any sort of rain conditions...even the slightest drizzle. Apparently their shit will fro up in like half a second if even one drop touches it.

I would have just set up a canopy. I'm sure someone could have checked the weather before the press conference.

The decision to send people to war is one that should be taken seriously. It should be a last resort. After diplomacy has broken down. And only if we have a winning strategy.
Even if we "Win" a war, doesn't mean we come out better than before. The lose of life is only a small park. The lasting effects of those who come home, last a lifetime.
When our politicians use war as a way to keep military contractors busy and profitable, then I have a problem. Not only are our tax dollars going to fund senseless war, but then we're obligated to pay for anything we destroy.
