Father of Fallen SEAL Condemns President Trump in Political Ad
The father of the first service member killed in combat during President Donald Trump's administration denounced him in a political ad that aired ahead of Trump's closing address at the Republican National Convention.
William Owens, father of fallen Senior Chief Petty Officer William "Ryan" Owens, reiterated his belief that Trump is to blame for his son's death.
"Just five days into his presidency, Trump ordered Ryan Owens' SEAL team into Yemen, not in the situation room with all the intelligence assembled, but sitting across a dinner table from Steve Bannon," Owens said in the ad, which is funded by the left-leaning veterans' group VoteVets.
