President Donald Trump on Monday defended his decision to sack Navy Secretary Richard Spencer for his handling of SEAL Eddie Gallaghers disciplinary review, saying he will always have the backs of those who serve except for deserters like Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl.
I think what Im doing is sticking up for our Armed Forces, and theres never been a president thats going to stick up for them, and has, like I have, Trump said during an Oval Office meeting with Bulgarias prime minister, Boyko Borissov.
He contrasted his support for the military with how the Obama administration treated the matters involving Bergdahl, who deserted from Afghanistan in 2009 and was taken captive by the Taliban, and Army soldier Chelsea Manning who was convicted of espionage in a court-martial in 2013.

OK meme makers put side by side Eddie Galligher in full gear and Chelsea Manning in it’s dress.
What a picture: Trump soldiers / Obama soldiers
That will be a picture for all the world to see.
THX in advance.
If the enemy combatant still had a pulse, Im betting it would have been fine
Not newspapers. The guy who killed him admitted on the witness stand.
When will America understand that the president is a GOOD GUY with a soft heart?
I still say this was a pre-designed plot which is designed to provide another matter for Adam schitt to investigate. Trump abuse of power? Russian hoax..fail, Ukraine telephone call ....fail. Dems just throwing something else at the wall to see if they can finally get something to stick. Or even just another useless matter to keep the impeachment hoax an ongoing event.
Do you have tin foil over your AFI electric meter?
Do you store your urine in Mason jars in your basement?
P.S. They’re watching you right now...
No, no, and your “presumptions” are worth no more than Gordon Sondland’s.
Visibility is useful. I’ve vetted the story with many top professionals, who are now quite convinced that the proof we have is real.
I don’t know what your credentials are to make any comment about the narrative, but be advised, you’re way off base.
Every soldier from Private Snuffy Smith to General Halftrack now knows exactly who is in charge. Trump’s resounding response to Spencer’s insubordination and dereliction of duty was just what was needed. Mission accomplished.
[I recall reading (somewhere) that Milley had some sort of personal antipathy toward one of the SEALS pardoned. The SEAL should have been freed and made whole again, but Milley had intervened. This happened maybe a year or two ago.]
