Liberals from CNN contributor Joan Walsh to Scottish comedian Frankie Boyle had a conniption when presented with images of President Donald Trump honoring Conan, the heroic Special Forces dog injured in the raid to kill ISIS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi.
Two children died in this raid – they’re giving a dog a certificate. https://t.co/rpGIPGn9AV

Somehow, everything is controversial for those suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome.
RedState’s Nick Arama has more:
Wait, what? Is he serious? You’re attacking the hero dog? Baghdadi blew up his own children with the explosive vest. The dog helped save the lives of other members of the Special Forces and get the terrorist leader.
Then here’s the Washington Post’s take on the event:
Of course the Washington Post would spin this story to be anti-Trump https://t.co/GWX8VBy4dY pic.twitter.com/SjagqSqIkN

Yet all they do is report lies about Trump for attention.

Finally, there was Joan Walsh, a CNN political contributor and author of “What’s the Matter With White People.”
Her take was pretty bad. She found the event “terrifying.” Huh?
This is terrifying. Trump and Melania exude coldness to Conan the hero dog. Melania, whose coat is slightly macabre (to me, but others may find it lovely), moves away from Conan multiple times. 1/3 https://t.co/s9T3Y4ZYTn

Trump tells you how incredible “this particular type of dog” is, repeatedly, but he clearly can’t remember the name of the breed or other details. He tells us he really wanted the dog to be muzzled, which tells you about his fear 2/3

“Conan is a tough cookie,” we learn. Still nothing about his breed. Trump repeatedly “jokes” about siccing the dog on journalists. Also, again, his command of the language rivals (maybe) a five-year-old. Terrifying 3/3
