Ignore him. It is. And for so many reasons.
But I feel the same way.
To be fair, seeing the global superpower Leeroy Jenkins into the Middle East for the third... Forth? Should we count...? Anyway the nth time in a handful of decades does leave me feeling kind of concused.
Is it realistic to think the US could eliminate this threat given how easy it appears to be to build, move, and fire it's drones combined with the coastal geography? Or could escorts handle drones pretty well?
Agreed, thanks for clarifying.
I agree with everything you said above except I'm curious if/why you think Israel might strike past a US pullback. In my view, Trump will be very anxious to "end" the acute phase of this and still holds the leverage and some of the tactical needs for maintaining the campaign.
I hear Trump has a special technology to summon Diet Coke to his desk. Maybe we can throw that in?
There are people who make knowing the intricate details of what happens when X happens their whole career. I feel like the Trump admin is knocking them off one by one. Best wishes to the Hormuz guys.
And yes, I'm aware of the irony.
Yes please. Strawman doesn't seem to cut it. I love what I can learn here but every third post is about an ill defined "they" that is intellectually dishonest.
I disagree but I will concede that the type of coverage needed to sustain public attention doesn't come easily and the opposition lacks this ability to sustain comms.
We have liberal arts degrees and we WILL use them
I have a 7 year old. It's probably fine...
You won't convince Costco all by it's lonesome but you could convince the association of retailers. Hey, there's this issue where the US is trying to decouple from China but it forgot to build ships first. That's going to be a BIG problem in any major foreign policy scenario that involves China.
We'll either get Trump in a special gold uniform or AI slop. If we're really unlucky, he'll pull a Putin.
There's a part of me that thinks this may actually be true post-Maduro.
When you say "Ukraine," you're talking about the Crimean War, right? Agreed! A very important lesson we learned in 1856. Man, not much good Crimean War content around these days. Next favorite topic is sea lift capacity so hopefully that comes up soon.
The way Hegseth quickly added that the TOC was "fortified, but these are powerful weapons" left me wondering what details would emerge.
Ugh, it's too late. We're up and now you've made it weird. Thanks, I guess.
But what if we, like, really really want it to be fine?
Don't you think it spins like the fireplace in Indiana Jones and DJT can stand back there listening in?
Who does he even need an out with?
This take didn't age well. Maybe he finally realized he wasn't accomplishing anything and now we get the exact opposite.
Agreed and well said. But I think it is exactly this blithe response that got us here. It's at the heart of US wars and electing a guy that wants to wipe the board clean and start again (as if that's a thing). It's not going away. So FAFO I guess.
Ooph, sorry. That was just an AI thing. WE didn't shoot your civilians! Just our computer! So, no need for war. Have a good day, everyone!
Somehow that seems relevant...
Lol why did they make it look like he's behind bars? The columns were a choice.
Can I pose a counterfactual?
It's not a majority opinion in any poll I've ever seen on the issue and there is a partial divide of course. I think it's more likely Hilary is just taking her unique positioning as someone there when it was "done better" and using it to undercut Trump from another angle.
LGBTQ people are fleeing Texas. I'm one of them. It's not because of bad vibes.
