Nobody on the right would have faulted a failed mission in Pakistan, because most on the right don’t consider Pakistan a trusted ally. Obama would have gotten credit for finally having a back bone to follow through on a threat, unlike anything else in his tenure.
The perfect parallel is Carter’s failed attempt to rescue the hostages. He wasn’t criticized for the action, but for the emblematic lack of detail and preparedness during an administration that also viewed the military as the enemy.
There’s no double standard. Obama was and is an empty suit.
