Sorry, best I can do is 2 trillion more for Boeing, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin and the like. They're desperate man, they haven't had a war for like 12 minutes, they need to be fed.

Best the turnip can do is a gold colored overpriced shit phone.

Don’t worry. You’ll get it if you can be drafted.

And human rights. Due process. Rule of law and respect the constitution. Less inflation. More progress on our environment. Rebuild some infrastructure. Invest in some technologies of the future rather than the past. Leadership that understands basic economics and actually the art of the deal

Other Americans just want fucking guns and affordable discrimination. It's a sad day.

Best we can do is give more people PTSD and then deny them disability or treatment for it. America loves dead soldiers, we can't go too long without having a new batch.

Best I can do is a Trump smartphone.

We just want fucking healthcare and affordable housing.

Trumps response is to offer army barracks and MREs, in exchange for you becoming cannon fodder in his delusional war games.

Be that as it may, we also only seem to vote for people that we know aren't going to actually do what they say, except on the issue of immigration.

You had a chance at that in Zuck's metaverse...

You don’t, because almost none of you vote for socialist candidates.

Yeah. Unfortunately it's been obvious to a lot of us for awhile that it would only come from the ashes of this country.

I can't believe he'd just... Lie to us like we're a court, Congress or himself or something.

There has never been a decade in the entire history of the US in which it has not been at war. Come to think of it, there are probably like 10 years total, over 250, where there was not direct military action. I think. Have not recently checked the spreadsheet I keep.

Trump wants to try for an illegal third term and he thinks that being in the middle of a war will help his chances. “Don’t change horses mid-stream” or whatever bullshit.

Slowing weapons production??? While there are still citizens to vaporize to manufacture consent for yet more war??????

Grunt infantry is redundant

Eh, maybe cav scout or something in the 92 family (NOT 92R), we don’t want those asshats walking around with an M4/203 and frags.

Nah they'll just cry on tiktok about how they "never expected this at all" so that people feel sorry for them. Even though they fucked everyone around them.

If they feel safe leaving their homes, you’ve failed.

What got us here is the same two parties cycling in power for a century. If you believe war is red fault alone and that voting blue will change anything, you are part of the problem.

Let's not pretend that the Democrats wouldn't also side with Israel

It's really Democrats and independents who got you there. Unconvinced ones, though. Republicans did what they do, just enough Democrats and independents stayed at home.

Americans in a nutshell

US is about to go to war the day before I go down to the states to get an MRI, lovely.

edit: So idiots are excited about wars, but I'm also an idiot for not being excited about wars? Fair enough then, I can't win.

This might sound insane but every single wartime president has gotten a huge boost to their approval ratings due to media networks circulating pure propaganda nonstop. Even NPR will start doing positive coverage.

It is clear that Israel want this war. And they clearly can't do anything without the US and the UK at least. However, they commited insane genocidal attack in Gaza which might have been part of their plans to provoke a reaction that justify a war against Iran.

When that didn't work and Trump made a deal with the Houthis in Yemen without their knowledge and was close to a deal with Iran they pulled the plug and basically put the US government under a situation where the have to join their war sooner or later eventhough it is not a good time for the US to do it.

lets imagine Trump administration just gone. Any other adminstration have a few options:

• play a defensive rule, which cannot last for long as Iran have the means to a long term missile attacks, and Israel being small and there is a few main cities that can be targeted. Along with cost which will run their budgets down.
• stop supporting Israel, which will make their allies nation to reach to China or Russia for guarantee protection and the US will lose its defense credibility.
• forcing a ceasefire, which is impossible and Israel keep violating all their ceasefires. As they would like to the war to happen they will force it through escalation.

Along with the fact that Israel own the Congress, the Senate, and the US administration based on how many officials visit Israel and publicly endorsed by AIPAC, there are literally no other option.

The question now is how to make sure it is a popular war, it seems like they were trying to do it by the 6 day mark but couldn't. The US government has two part, Zionist and MAGA supremacist, and the MAGA supremacist don't want to be controlled by Jewish people and it feel as this is what stopping the US from joining now.

Most likely, they came to the conclusion that they will have to stage a false flag attack on US bases or assets to make it easier for the public to accept this war. This has been publicly stated by AIPAC speakers through out the years before 9/11, where now it feels more like a false flag as Benjamin Netanyahu keep mentioning "New York will be next".

Without war, American capitalist hegemony cannot sustain itself. It's so sickening..

Vietnam was pretty unpopular tbh.

I think Trump is attempting to scare Iran into accepting his nuclear deal. The only problem with this tactic is that Iran might not believe him as they know how deeply unpopular the war would be.

Gotta keep the Middle East under control so gas prices don't get too high. Americans vote for low gas prices and then pretend to be upset about what needs to be done to keep them low. But y'all will keep voting for low gas prices, so it's all hypocrisy.
