I never said it was Trump's fault, that's plainly idiotic.
I'm inferring that in the fog of war, people in high stress situations make poor choices. This happened 3 hours after they attacked the bases in Iraq. For all those guys knew they just killed a bunch of US personnel and retaliation was imminent.
We will probably never know what they saw on their screen, how well they were trained ect. I just know I've never sat in a truck beaming my location out to every potential radar busting US missile flying toward me. I'm sure all the cool as a cucumber types here would be smooth operators, that's why accidents of every variety never happen.
