Trump was heavily criticized because he claimed that he stopped an attack he had authorized, when he learned people would die. His reason for stopping the attack was either transparent BS, or he was sleeping through the initial briefing when he authorized the attack in the first place, because there is absolutely no way that they realized only after the attack was in motion, that people would die. The more likely reason he stopped the attack was he watched criticism of a possible attack on Fox News, right after he had authorized it, since there was a segment around that time where Fox News hosts were discussing how it would negatively impact his polling to start a war against Iran.
