Lloyd Austin isn’t just a “guy”, he’s one of only two people in the world who have the constitutional authority to wage war on behalf of the United States. Congress just authorizes it.
Do you have any relatives serving in the Mideast? If so, does it bother you at all that one of those two people’s whereabouts was unknown to the other for four days? It does me.
Austin’s Number Two in charge didn’t even know that he was in the hospital! Biden was vacationing in St Croix. Who do you think had control of the nuclear football? Kama Lama Ding Dong?
If you really think this is a trivial matter, you should believe it the next time somebody calls you an idiot.
Trump disappears into the hospital for three days, with no explanation, and all is fine (and I am not talking about his COVID diagnosis, which of course he did not have because COVID was and is a hoax).
From what I read he was in the ICU due to an small intestine infection likely incurred during the surgery so likely the doctor/hospital (Walter Reed?) messed up. Usually prostrate cancer is treated with radiation unless it has a very aggressive Gleason score.
So, how many of you could have surgery and not show up for work for days AND not inform your boss? Oh, but for the Biden administration, that’s OK. “We are looking to form a committee to investigate the possible issue. We are confident an answer will be provided in 60 to 90 days”
Please note that he left folks in charge, according to procedures, although he didn’t go into detail. I’m not sure why the trumpists are making such a big deal of this.
The point is not that he was seriously ill. The point is not that he was in the hospital for several days. The point is not that he didn’t let the public know where he was for several days. The point is that he is one of the highest ranking members of the military and he didn’t see fit to let THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF of the military know WHERE HE WAS. How many wage earners have been fired for job abandonment for just such behavior? Of all the arrogant, self-important (as in, this is my personal business and as such it rises above all other concerns) jerks!

Austin is the capital city of the U.S. state of Texas. (Wikipedia so it is true)

As I see this, Austin has very little respect for Biden to not let him know.

Check in a week. No one is going to be talking about this. Why? Because it goes nowhere.
