In other words, kiss the military industrial complex goodbye.
What allies in their right minds are going to buy THAT shit?
I wonder how the military contractors & their congressional leeches feel about THIS.

There is virtually no better commercial you can run for the European defense industry than these two sentences uttered by Trump.
No matter with whom I’m talking about this on this side of the pond, the common understanding is that this is going to severely damage the US industry.

Sell any Boeing stock you have asap.
Either he's bragging & taking credit for something that already exists, or he's talking about weakening the products, insofar as their effectiveness for allies goes.
Makes no sense, either way.

Everyone knows Trump is what happens when you go too far right, so the right in Europe has to be louder than the left to distance themselves from Trump's right wing fascist attacks on democracy and the rule of law.

Dief's mistake...
don't forget about the environment 👍
And, then here's Trump making the rest of the world suspicious. He'll start WWIII because he can't keep his stupid lying mouth shut.
lol
Or insert CC to continue flying
On the other hand he's destroying the military industrial complex, so hopefully they'll have less influence in the future to push us into wars
Black ops and wet works, my ass.
International peacetime politics is based on trust. Make America Alone.
These isolationist policies will lead to wars, all over the planet.

We rely on France for absolutely everything.
I think we'd prefer being South Canada, but if they'll take us....
I mean, you could easily become independent and still have one of the biggest economic volumes worldwide.
Reasonable conservativism is a legitimate stance. The barbaric MAGA weirdness is out of "conservativism"
Line crossed ME.
If you were a defense minister in a NATO country right now, where would you spend your defense money? Horrific situation.
If that's the case, then they are both working against America with foreign adversaries.
Does the entire Republican party really want WWIII?
When does treason kick in?
Info can be sold or linked up.
We got President Starlink dictatorship running -right now.
His life is in the balance.

It exposed the fact that the US can hamstring any military using American weapons at will, which no country would tolerate even if Trump wasn't in office.
Countries are seeing it now tho
I said AFTER he is either defeated or he dies or goes away - though I can't see him just going away...
THEN we all have to band together to ensure it doesn't happen AGAIN.
It's assuming a LOT.
Like, we've overthrown the fascists.
BIG assumption.
We actually have the power if we stick together!
The brightest minds very often don't care for fascism.
Never could really, either.
Do you think Donald Trump gives a shit about inviolate contracts?
Are you talking about the airspace thing? Because if you are - I agree with you.
I thought you were talking about what the Danish politician posted.
The Orange Felon did this. And it would be the height of stupidity on the part of any foreign country - any - to trust the future of their sovereignty to the Reich that's currently running ours.
The sound you hear are military industrial complex CEOs and investors' heads exploding.
We need to help Ukraine get these- Gripin? Jets
(!)
Does he matter?
He could be a no name backbencher. As long as what he says is TRUE - and it appears it is - then it matters.
Where are you getting this? I just perused their page.
Every single post is legit.
Figures.
Like invade Panama or close the Department of Education or…
Europe also needs to concentrate on Europen made drones and stand-off weapons like cruise missiles as well as warplanes.
We might also be turned around by a massive pandemic that kills a huge percentage of the population.
Not sure I'm all that enthused by these options, but it seems 70+ million morons are simply DETERMINED to take it to the extremes.
WHAT THE FUCK.

Was it just a case of stealing the money?
He also subs out to himself for his building and remodel. So his list of bankruptcy “creditors” is himself 🙄. Guess which subs get paid and which don’t?!
Then licensing and management fees!
$Trump doesn’t either. Until his units sell. When you hear then complain about taxes. They don’t pay ‘em
I think he on the casinos he claimed he was going to get 3-4x MORE per door than every other casino in Atlantic City history.
Merv, being a superstar, got a tremendous amount of business.
Trump eventually slit his own throat by buying the hotel from Merv and competing against himself.
The Plaza was eventually demolished and the location of the Taj Mahal is now the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
This was when Indian gaming was expanding around the USA, so people didn't have to go to the depressing Jersey shore to play slots anymore.
So that's why he was fighting so hard against Indian Gaming.

F-35 has been a financial disaster - costs expected to exceed $2 trillion.

Down the road, when you least expect it, you WILL regret it.
I hope for it every day.
Or something like it.
A girl can dream.
It's not like I've got magic powers & my wishes MANIFEST shit like that.
If they could, the streets of hell would be crowded with the newly damned, hopefully writhing in paroxysms of unending agony (to paraphrase Tom Hanks).
I mean, you have a cuckoo of your *own* enemy in first position of command chain in your nest.
Not good for us, but way worse for you.
Hate and opposition go without saying. What to actually do is harder. We are entirely reliant on Republicans to govern and control him and they have shown no will to do so. It’s a sick state of affairs.
He commits treason, colludes with the enemy, and annihilates trust with allies developed over 50 to 100 years.
That's sufficient
If you can remember back to the Thatcher era and attacks on "Loony Left" councils, the miners, Greenham Common women & CND, lying about Hillsborough, plus so much more.
And it only got worse from then on.
as employable cliche.
Cool.

Eat your borscht.
"F you" money isn't even all that much, it's in the 100s of millions, and they have billionaires on their boards
All Trump has to do is promise them power
We are through the Looking Glass in so many ways in this era...
Never should have retired them in the first place. A very short-sighted decision.
Also AWACS and SAR - we have to rely on US Rivet Joint & Poseidon because Cameron scrapped the Nimrod MR4 update programme and AEW3 was cancelled by Thatcher.
The only drawback to the Harrier was engine performance that had just about reached max.
4th gen updates could have significantly improved avionics, weapons and reduced pilot workload.
And will always be much better than a grounded F-35 with no spares.
I can't think of any.
(HMS Prince of Wales was unnecessary - we don't have enough 'planes for it - and it's a dud anyway.
After major ally gone mad threatening with annexations and disabling weapon systems at will.
What if US invades Canada as Trump promises?
Will NATO defend its ally due to Article 5?
Do I want that to happen? Of course not
Does America want that to happen? Of course not.
So if Trump decides to invade Canada or Greenland, America knows what it has to do.

This says Denmark purchased its first F35 jets in 2023.
https://www.brusselstimes.com/692982/denmark-to-purchase-its-first-f-35-fighter-jets
But they didn't actually do it till 2023.
I see no point in this.

You can NOT blame the rest of the population.
Thats like saying if a murderer kills someone down the street,
we can just blame YOU too, just because you live on the same street.
See how that goes.
2-way St
But remember, once 2029 comes, things will change because the current schmuck that is in the oval office will be forced to leave in 2029.
So try to hang in there until 2029.
This never happened before until this administration.
It's THIS specific administration in office thats bad.
Check the latest polling.
He is NOT extremely popular.
You are listening to the LOUDEST voices and to the corporate media.
I always check the polls and have no idea what voices you’re talking about.

44% is not 49%.
That's four polls in a row at 44%.
And on every topic except immigration he's underwater - including with his own voters.

Half the voting public did not vote for him.
Half the votes that were counted were for him.
A third of eligible voters did not vote.
If ALL the votes cast had been counted, he would have lost.

Hey, I built this fast car that gets 80 MPG, will go 30k between oil changes and will definitely go a million miles. I'll sell you one but it comes with the motor out of an 87 Yugo. K? Good luck.
The US government bending the knee itself to a Russian Regime, selling the country for Trump's ego of bad deals.
Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg figured it out too, you could get everything out of the US as long as you sold your soul to Trump.
What you are losing is everything that is related to security and requires trust.
This will have catastrophic consequences for US
Remember the ‘paint planes like Chinese ones then say China did it’.
