White House chief of staff forgets Obama caught bin Laden



By Josh Israel -August 19, 2020 10:59 AM

Mark Meadows seems to be forgetting recent history.

Mark Meadows, the White House chief of staff, falsely claimed on Wednesday that Donald Trump is the only president who has ever taken out a terrorist.

In an interview on Fox News, Meadows dismissed criticisms of Trump's poor international leadership made by former Secretary of State John Kerry in his speech on Tuesday at the Democratic National Convention, during which he called Trump's foreign policy actions a "blooper reel."

"This is the only president who actually went after a terrorist and took him out. How do we know that? We saw in real time, where this president took on a threat. And Iran is the state sponsor, the preeminent state sponsor of terror. And yet John Kerry is supposedly gonna applaud the efforts of the Obama administration?" Meadows said.

He's both stupid & a liar.
He either forgot because of the stupidity, or did remember, and lied.
If it's the latter, it's further proof of stupidity because 250,000,000 Americans know BHO authorized the mission to get bin Laden. It's a lie one can't get away with. Stupid, liar!

Basically a War Crime.

They labelled him a Terrorist to justify this crime.
