Do you really believe the Trump Administration would throw America under the bus?

CW3 Ed Vincent - A damned I may be but the fact you believe we are in a better state than we ever were just means you appreciate the policies put in place prior to his arrival since the impacts of any policy he has changed takes a few years to actually impact the economy and cannot be truly measured yet with the exception of taxes and that will surely wreak havoc on those that saw that small increase in their checks only to have their taxes at the end of the year significantly increase since many middle class exemptions have been eliminated or reduced. I would have expected a better response from a fellow Warrant but that just tells me more about the person you are have a great day.

The former Chief Executive had absolutely no experience in operations management, or even making money, hell, as far as I can tell he's never held a job! And you believe his policies of kowtowing to every world leader and strangling small business has led to the prosperity we see today? I still remember him telling us that 1-2% growth is the new normal and to get used to it! Trump hit the ground running and has been responsible for eliminating 27 regulations for every new one implemented. That's how to kick-start the economy. Add the tax cut, and the result is 4.5% sustained growth! Then there's the fact that there are currently 7 million job openings and only 6 million unemployed. Yeah, Trump is doing a terrible job and things would have been so much better if H had won. Pull your head out and look around, I think you missed something.

CW3 Ed Vincent - No I think you're the damn fool. REALLY need to open your eyes to the bigger picture.

Capt Thomas Orlando - Keep that thought. Let me know how you feel at the end of the year.

thank you

Well Corporasl Bates shut your pie hole and gop back to Civics 101; the Presidnt of the united States, your CInC by the way, is not, never has not, and hopefully will never not be elcetd by popular vote. What abnout that don't you get Marine? You shouold read your Constitution with all the same "big mo" you read USMC RifleM40 training manual. To wit: Article II: Section I: Clause II to wit: "...The exzecutive Power shall be vested in in a President of the Unite States of America. he shall gold his Office during the Term of four Yearas, and together with the Vice President, chosen for the saame Term, be elected aas follows....../" [here's the good part Marine so pay attention here] Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as tjhe Legislature thereof [note it doesn't say a shitting thing about Congress] may direct, a Number of Electors a

and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Seanatoror Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the united States,. shall [this is not optional here] shall be appointed an Elector. The key word here Marine is 'Elector. It is the body of Electors that vote for the President and not necessarily "the" majority number of popular votes, because if it was that way then Boston, NYC, SanFran, L/A, Chicago and only the largest of cities would vote in crap and shove it down your throat. If you were from fly over country you just wouldn't exist. You might be a good Marine but to be a better one go read your Constitution. Will the President throw the military under the bus? Is that the question? It's a good question and a scary one; the question shows how low we've sunk as a country, that that question has to be asked at all. The American fighting man has been sold down the river consistently from the Kennedy Administration going forward through ALL Administrations with the possible exception of the Nixon/Reagan Administration/s. The Texas good ole' boy Lyndon thought he was an Admiral? or was it General? [with his huckie dummie ya'll crap] until he started something he found out was going to be tougher than he thought it would be and then lost his knees at Tet, the exact moment that we had it won that Walter Kronkite lied to us about on TV standing on the steps of the American Embassy in Saigon. Richard M. Nixon was a dislikeable sonofabitch but he at least knew how to win in VietNam [make no mistake VietNam was a hard fought bloody victory and the Paris Peace Accords say so]. North VietNam signed the Accords as the defeated party and was forced to recognize the autonomy and independence of South VietNam [that's on record] The peace was lost in the succeeding postWatergate Nixon/Ford Administration when the defence appropriations for the country of South VietNam were stripped out of the budget by Communist sympathizers in the Senate [and that's on record too]. President Carter clearly threw the armed forces under the bus denying long overdue pay raises so he could by Teacher votes paying for an unconstitutioinal Department of Education; he even ordered an unarmed rescue attempt of the American Embassy hostages in Tehran. We all know how that ended. President Reagan rebuilt the armed forces over the objections of gutless RINOs and only used them to crushing degree when he had to. Both Bush administrations are a disgrace; Daddie and Junior never saw a war that they didn't like that they weren't afraid to win. Dame Thatcher had to tell George "...now George this is NOT the time to go wobbly...". He did not listen to "the Bear" [General Schwarzkopf] and go into Baghdad and settle it once and for all, all half assed and they continued to still kill, rape, and maim Christians [the lucky ones] Jews? they just killed, routinely without let-up. "Junior" all hat no cattle 'Iraqi Freedom' was 'Desert Storm' redux and he still left it all unfinished; a the exact moment we had won in Ramadi this boy lost his legs and trned it over to the Iraqis., corrupt, homicidal, and tribal; he went fetl and botched it. The l;ast occupant of the Oval Office hated this country hated tis country clear and simple. He even went so far as to have all Atlantic Fleet Carriers docked at once in Norfolk; if anyone wanted to have a really big 'Peral Harbor they lost their chance there. I thinlk this President wil do right by the armed forces. I know about VuetNam I was there. I unmderstand your question Marine; it's a natural one because you have never lived in a country that's had to kill its way out of situation and win a War since 1945 and Tokyo Bay. We've killed lost of folks that really needed killing; we haven't won a thing; a.

and my Navy/Marine Corps combat team has been sold down the river every time. Just sayin'---SemperFi---ChiefBull

SFC Anthony Bennett - Other pilots aboard the Forrestal and the Oriskany aircraft carriers that he knew. I have spoken to former POWs who were held with him some there before him, some after he was shot down. It is thought he gave up information on the 1967 Forrestal fire, the 1966 fire aboard the Oriskany which was classified information at that time. He may have also given up target selection information to the North Vietnamese, which could explain the increase rate aircraft were shot down between 1968 and 1971. Targets had better AAA protection after 1967.

PO2 David Dunlap - I think you need to remove your head from your @$$. How much are you getting from the tax cuts, how much will you be paying back at the end of the year? The border wall, Mexico is suppose to pay for what happened to that? The tax cuts for the wealthy, who do you think is going to pay for that? Cuts in your SSN, Medicare, crappy healthcare, taking away pre-existing conditions, rolling back EPA? Please tell me who is this going to benefit, damn sure not the middle and low income families. Look at the BIGGER PICTURE. One thing I do agree with you on and that is GO
D did allow your president to become president. Not for gratification, because his children has lost their way. We are putting things before him. My GOD is a very jealous GOD. He does not like the direction we are going in. This is all GOD works.

PO@ David Dunlap just blocked me. Wonder how he made it through the Navy.

SSgt John Carter well, I'm retired and I'm straight Republican and Trump all the way. I'll wait for my jail cell proudly.

Not really. How many investigation did Obama have? Did Obama side with any of our enemies over his intelligence?

SFC Anthony Bennett - Obama did not offer a better treaty for the US, he was offering something better to the Russians once his election was done. He was worried his actions on behalf of the Russians could effect his election thus the reason he offered for after the election. Much worse than anything Trump as been accused with no proof, there is proof Obama wanted to do things on behalf of the Russians and not his own citizens.

CPO Deborah Simmons - Obama did not have these kinds of investigations because the Republican Party in 2012 were not sore losers like the Dems in 2016. All Mueller has found thus far is tax evasion and lying under oath.

MAJ Byron Oyler - Wow Major. Less compare sore losers to a President that can't tell the if his life depend on it.

Col Rebecca Lorraine I think there's a house that needs to be cleaned.

AN Jerrme Bailey - AN Bailey, a bit crude, don't you think? But you seem true to your king. The only discussion Trump will allow is "Yes sir." "You're absolutely right." and Can I help you wipe that?" Being a non-Trump person, I would never say something like "Your mom should have had an abortion" to you. Even the stupid deserve to live.

AN Jerrme Bailey - while I also disagree with her that was uncalled for.

AN Jerrme Bailey - I totally agree and its the House of Representatives!

How in this world can anyone not see what the trump and Gop is doing to our once great country. The language alone (vulgar) is about as low as one could be, and the lies and life style and lack of knowledge on every partial of Government is earth shattering. It’s the blind trying to lead something they know not one thing about. Never, ever thought I would have seen anything like this ever in our country. It will be extremely difficult for the Country to ever recover from this disaster.

Over the course of 7 years, the Obama Administration has invested more than $4 billion in HBCUs

You need to find the adult in charge of you and tell them its your nap time

https://www.ed.gov/news/press-releases/fact-sheet-obama-administration-investments-historically-black-colleges-and-universities

Oh I’m sorry. 25 billion. Thank you for the Captain Save em’ comment. He still donated almost 3 and a half times more. I checked with the adult in charge of me. I can stay awake all I want

Sorry. 6 times more.

But Russia and China see our refusal to use our ABMs and evidence it doesn't work. If so we have been fleeced for a trillion dollars

Sir, please cite an example of DJT's "individual acts of compassion for our brothers in combat". As I recall it, he collected money in the name of veterans but did not hand any over until *after* reporters called him on it. He also promised money to a Gold Star dad but failed to pay anything until *after* it hit the media. He has also attacked Gold Star families. What "his individual acts of compassion" are you speaking of; especially acts that he did not tout in the press???

CPT Larry Hudson - Sir, still waiting for those example of DJT's "individual acts of compassion for our brothers in combat". To save time/effort arguing, please avoid claiming DJT did things as POTUS for items established or in the works prior to him actually becoming POTUS. If you have a good example, go ahead and post it, but DJT is notorious for saying things that didn't happen or take credit for things he didn't really do.

CPO (Join to see) - where is the proof

PO2 David Dunlap - You know, I keep hearing about how we "gave BILLIONS to Iran." But, that's not what happened.

Here's the short version:
Back in the day, Iran and the US were buddies. Iran put a deposit of $400 million down on fighter planes from the US. Before they were delivered, the leadership of Iran was overthrown. President Carter stopped any shipment of arms to Iran AND wouldn't give their deposit back. Iran had some hostages from the US. As part of a negotiated release, Iran and the US agreed to some arbitration for LOTS of things. One of those things included the $400 million deposit on fighter jets.

In 2016, arbitration finished on that deal and the US agreed to pay back to $400 million plus interest which is where that BILLIONS of dollars came from.

It was a 100% legal international court proceeding. There was no "giving" of anything - it was Iran's money to begin with.

So, you can either keep repeating the same nonsense that everyone else does, or you can do the research yourself and see if you change your opinion.

PO2 David Dunlap So I provided evidence and you provide empty rhetoric? Lol

But, no, really, what do you think the billions were for? Fun? Good will gesture? Bribe?

PO2 David Dunlap Are you ignoring the link provided? If so, why? If not, look again.

PO2 David Dunlap - Ignorance IS bliss. And definitely helps people to maintain their biased opinions in the face of facts. Ignore me all you want, it doesn't make you any more right, but it does mean that you've chosen to remain ignorant of the facts - even when they are right in front of you. Much like the "flat-Earthers." But, hey, if you've given up on intellectual integrity - that's on you.

Your posts tells it all. Standard liberal pap. Sounds like something from that idiot Perez, without his profanity.

MCPO Roger Collins - I can't & won't deal with the willfully ignorant. Hope you join reality, before our current POTUS policies turn around & bite you in the ass and/or get you killed. Good luck if you're still AD!

LTC Donell Kelly The only tactic the left wing has to work with is fear, deceit, and division. They have no facts, so they manufacture their own. The previous administration set the unthinkable precedent of shredding the Constitution and using it for toilet paper. The left wing "Progressives", made our country a joke to the rest of the world. We are finally pulling back from the edge of the abyss, and restoring our Constitutional Republic. All of the economic indicators are trending upward, and our freedoms, that the left were rapidly stealing, are being restored. Finally, our military is being rebuilt after being gutted, and decimated by the America hating Obama Administration. The list goes on, and on.

MSgt Billy Zuber - MSgt Zuber, we'll have to agree to disagree. Have a good day.

Wow...human garbage? I didn't know there was such a thing. Sounds like hate speech, maybe prejudice, to me. Sadly.

Yes, I very much hate what Captain Bone spurs is doing to my beloved country.
