Quote:Trump may have made up story about Baghdadi 'whimpering and crying'
Hey, I don’t know who’s telling the truth. Maybe Trump has more information than top military brass. But if it’s between the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff or the most prodigious liar in the history of American politics, I’ll believe the former.
During Trump’s snuff porn poetry slam yesterday morning he noted that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was “whimpering and crying” before dying in a U.S.-led raid.
But Gen. Mark Milley, for one, wasn’t sure what Trump was talking about:

Gen. Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, tells reporters he doesn't know where Trump got his information that Baghdadi was "whimpering and crying" when he died. "I don't know what the source of that was."

Milley adds he believes Trump was "talking to unit members," so may have heard it from them--Milley says he hadn't spoken to those unit members.
Here’s another clue that this is likely (yet another) Trump lie.
CNN:
Asked at a press briefing if the US military has video or photos of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi's final moments, Army Gen. Mark A. Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said, "We do have videos, photos."
"We're not prepared to release those...they're going through a declassification process," Milley said.
He added that the photos and videos would be released by the military in the coming days.
So I would assume if the military has video of this raid, Milley would have seen it, and would have known if Baghdadi was actually whimpering.
To me this sounds like more projection. Crying and whimpering is exactly what Trump would do in a similar situation — right after handing the enemy a note from his doctor saying he can’t be captured right now because he has bone spurs.
This is a guy who was so brave he ran away from an elderly man who was bleeding profusely from the head after falling during a posh fundraiser.
If you ever want to peer into the depths of Trump’s craven soul, all you need to do is read his own account of the incident, which he gave on Howard Stern’s radio show:
“I was at Mar-a-Lago and we had this incredible ball, the Red Cross Ball, in Palm Beach, Florida. And we had the Marines. And the Marines were there, and it was terrible because all these rich people, they’re there to support the Marines, but they’re really there to get their picture in the Palm Beach Post.
So, you have all these really rich people, and a man, about 80 years old — very wealthy man, a lot of people didn’t like him — he fell off the stage. So what happens is, this guy falls off right on his face, hits his head, and I thought he died.
And you know what I did? I said, ‘Oh my God, that’s disgusting,’ and I turned away. I couldn’t, you know, he was right in front of me and I turned away. I didn’t want to touch him. He’s bleeding all over the place, I felt terrible.
You know, beautiful marble floor, didn’t look like it. It changed color. Became very red. And you have this poor guy, 80 years old, laying on the floor unconscious, and all the rich people are turning away.”
By the way, Pr*sident Dipshit, it’s “lying,” not “laying.”
Anyway, that’s one of my favorite stories ever. Right behind Stormy Daniels’ epic tale about Trump watching Shark Week.
So, yeah, more bullshit.
Boooooooo!
