The Official Trump 2024 Candidacy Thread (Part 2)

We’re going to wind up with battle of the gold star families.

“The Gold Star family members maintained that they had asked Trump for photographs, as opposed to Trump taking pictures to advance his campaign. In one video, the father of Marine Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz called Harris’ post “heinous, vile and disgusting.”

At this point, both sides are battling over this, and it’s going to make both sides look bad. They both need to drop it right now.

Brian Schimming, head of WISGOP:

“I told him we can absolutely win Wisconsin.”

Republican Party of Wisconsin Chairman Brian Schimming on his conversation with Donald Trump at the town hall in La Crosse: “It’s a matter of just getting people to vote.”

Brian Schimming also knows there is zero Republican effort in Wisconsin to get people to vote.

They have almost zero money and what little money they have is being forced into efforts to “poll watch” because they need to appease the “stolen election” ninnies.

Him entering politics isn’t the problem. People supporting him and giving him the he win is what got us where we are today.

Sums up Trumps election perfectly. He was elected primarily to engage in a pissing contest.
And though he lost the last election nobody owns the libs like he does.
So naturally he was going to be republicans/maga’s nominee again. After all that’s all that matters.
And how could it go wrong, they have God on their side.

And everyone knows republicans own the copyright on all things God related.

Step away from the brink. Self sabotage is not a good idea.

Jameson?

World War II

Unfortunately I can’t argue this. A decent number of people in this country if they were alive in 1945 would want President Truman tried as a war criminal.

Maybe I am too much of an optimist but it if need be, I would like to see them operate without the handcuffs that were placed on them way before I was born.

That’s incorrect.

El Salvador.

And @DisturbedGuy was partially correct. Operation Enduring Freedom was one of the most successful military operations in history.

He claimed we “won the war”, but failed at nation-building. Incorrect in that Enduring Freedom was not the war, it was an operation in the war.

And you have to win at nation-building as well. Look at Germany, Japan and El Salvador. I think the trick here is to know when to declare victory with the nation-building.

But if you notice, it seems each round takes more and costs more. The US is getting less efficient.

The US military is currently in a state of complete disarray. Wrong people+Wrong process=Bad product.

The US military has lost all sense of purpose.

That is a leadership failure.

When people say Trump can give a two hour interview it’s because of things like this.

While I’m up on this stump:

A great military requires engagement at every level.

Engagement requires three things:

  1. Purpose
  2. Mastery
  3. Autonomy

During OEF and OIF, they had that. Some of the decision special units were making hadn’t been made by NCOs for a long time. Initiative shown.

Mistakes were no doubt made. Learn the lesson and move on.

There was an A-10 pilot who refused an order to RTB and abandon troops in contact. He stayed and saved. He was discharged.

What message does that send?

In my opinion, it would be a criminal act to send the current military to war. A few exceptions aside of course.

Lara Trump more interested in making music videos than running the RNC. Only the best people.

My young grandchildren can see this movie easily.

Much as Hollywood doesn’t want them (or any other kids or young adults) to see it.

They don’t want them to learn real history.

meanwhile the GOP senate candidate is spouting racists crap about native americans

Sheehy says he ropes and brands with Crow members, and that it’s “a great way to bond with all the Indians while they’re drunk at 8:00 A.M.”
