O’Donnell Attacks Trump for Not Promising Troops ‘Home for Christmas’
28th August 2026
Few in the liberal elitist media have as wide of a gulf between how smart they think they are and how smart they actually are than MS Now’s Lawrence O’Donnell. Students of history are aware of several classic military blunders: touching America’s boats, invading Russia in winter, and engaging in a land war in Asia. Yet on Thursday’s The Last Word, O’Donnell, who fancies himself a history buff, proved he would commit another: promise to end a war by Christmas.
“Well, the list of what Donald Trump didn’t do today is, as usual, much, much longer than the list of what he did do today,” O’Donnell the pseudointellectual proclaimed.
Aside from the fact that literally everyone’s list of things they didn’t do in a day was longer than the list of things they did do, O’Donnell was aghast that President Trump had not promised the service members fighting Iran and their families that the war would be over and they’d be reunited by Christmas.
