It was like a street party without the booze.
As you know I too served on the Blue Ridge and us being enlisted ranks....didn't have access to booze...the officers had it flown on board with mail bags when I was there the admiral had a world class liquor cabinet I delivered messages to him all the time and he never once offered me a drink though
 
Yeah but.....Nixon gave us the Environmental Protection Agency, oversaw every moon landing, pushed for detente with Russia and China, lowered the voting age, abolished the draft, etc, etc, etc. In other words, actual positive accomplishments. It wasn’t done in a vacuum, but at least Tricky Dick tried to lead. He looks like an American hero (And a flaming left wing liberal) next to the Moron. And I HATED Nixon......
Yes, Nixon was pragmatic about things outside his core (environment, Title IX), supported scientific exploration, served his country in WWII. And when he finally had to choose between his presidency and the republic he put the republic first. He was corrupt, vengeful, racist, resentful, bigoted, and downright nasty but Trump can make even Nixon look if not good at least less bad.
 
White House DENIES that Trump was briefed on intel that Russia paid the Taliban bounties to kill US troops in Afghanistan, despite NYTimes report saying president has known for MONTHS

  • It was alleged that the White House had still not decided how to respond
  • McEnany said neither the President nor VP Pence were informed
  • She did not deny that there is intelligence of Russian bounties to Taliban-linked militants to kill U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan
  • Trump's rival Joe Biden blasted the president over his potential inaction
  • The Taliban and Russia have denied the report

Apparently like every thing else....bury it until after Nov

It's seriously concerning how China and Russia are both coming after us. I really hoped to never see a world war in my lifetime.

If this is true then I fully expect the person(s) who decided not to inform the president and/or vice president to be immediately fired.

And if no one is fired for this then you know it's bullshit and the president was briefed.

I never thought I'd live to see the country splinter like the former Soviet Union......it may be time to give the south to African Americans as their own country at this point Give them all the slave states as reparations for atrocities under our nation...call it African America. Let the good ole boys who've abused privilege relocate and start over like slaves had to

Uhhh... No.

he was briefed but it was probably longer than his attention span could focus on
 
This story of bounties for American lives angers me immensely.....I'm going to vent for a while....bear with me folks....I'm not interested in arguing about it
 
can't we just play Russia and China off each other so they destroy each other?
 
Well if trump and pence weren’t briefed about it, they aren’t traitors.


But they admit to being so incompetent and stupid that the military didn’t think they could handle pretty important information


I look forward to the future investigations #BENGHAZI

China Russia Iran and N Korea all share borders....more likely they'd join forces and form an alliance and after Trump we're not playing chess on their level at all nor do we have a team that could organize such a feat...China is 15 thousand years old and we're 300 plus change with civil unrest at our doorstep.....we're very, very vulnerable today on the global playing field...and we've pissed off our former allies

I was under the impression they didn't like each other at all.

China fought the US with North Korea back in the day..they basically formed North Korea as a communist satellite state....Kim Jong Un only travels to China and the Chinese have skirted sanctions to sell things to the Koreans...Iran sells Kim Jong Un materials for nukes..has for a long time.....the white Russians fled to China after the czar was executed...Iran has natural resources the other 3 need and no friends outside the region...I saw this coming when Trump first entered office

I'm not really talking about North Korea. I'm specifically talking about Russia and China.

It's China and India that's going to be the problem. Parts of both countries get their water from the same source and that source is melting.

India unlike China didn't log their country into a desert like China did...India has water tables....it's China that's going to be desperate for water moving forward...India is not a country China should fuck with in my view....they have as large an army as China and a lot of nukes and resources to support an army ..China hasn't got many allies in the region these days
 
You haven’t noticed? They all left. Can’t face the music.

strange how quiet they are. Though, I suspect if Trump wins again, they will come out of the woodwork and be obnoxious.

I really don't understand the blind loyalty. The guy has done literally nothing in four years. Nothing at all. What exactly has he done to earn this kind of ridiculous cult following?

They don’t like Trump. They hate Liberals. They have been bashing liberals for a long time and now they would have to eat crow. That won’t happen. If you support Trump at this point you are either 1) dumb 2) ignorant 3) a terrible human. And there’s a good chance it more than one of them.
