Thank heaven for that.

He has been making tons of stupid sayings on Twitter

I am pretty sure you can take the next 4 most powerful militaries and they would still not be high enough to equal the US Militaries 721.5 Billion USD it spends on its military. China doesnt even spend half that much and they are growing fast.

China probably will have to “cheat” to get the money to get that military

Either that, or somehow get “their guys” in the USA to take it down for them

I think at times, people forget the USA is more-or-less a “sleeping giant” and possibly way more dangerous than you’d think. Hell those “evil right wingers” are actually HOLDING BACK

I can tell you right now, that is one thing you postings wll not e able to realize. The US military will be until the day the world burns in nuclear fire, the strongest military in the world. China cant support that much money. No country can except us. We spend 3.4 percent of our GDP on the military.

Just 3.4%.....scary

That said, I gotta say those “Far Right Lunatics” are actually HOLDING BACK when I think about it

If they really were as evil as the Far Left says....there would be no mercy and they’d burn down the jungle rather than fight in it

And doing that in a country with the most powerful military and the ability to send a reaction force to anywhere in the states within hours...you are asking for a swift defeat

I would love for him to do that for the military and then lose a very large amount of them. I have yet to meet a single Biden or Hillary supporter since I have been in the Army. I have met leftists yes, but not any that support those. Most support Bernie fr a few things, but have bever had a good person to vote for, so they voted trump. This is literally the stupidest Idea! They would cripple our military because "THEY VOTED FOR TRUMP!"

They'd be well advised to crack open a history book about rome. These had the galaxy brain idea of not paying their soldiers too.
Guess what happens when you tell an organisation of armed people that you are going to cut their income. Go on, guess.

Can you please stop this mindset of yours? I am a pessemistic Asshole, but even I draw a lone at this kinda talk.

I think he's being satirical.

You get civil war 2: electric warfare boogaloo.

I like the guy but he always does it!

There’s a problem when you depend on a man’s “kindness” and “shame“, you forget that when sufficiently threatened or “pushed” they’ll show who’s priorities they really got in mind first

Nah, you get the Appian Way: Democrats Edition.

That is something the military will always win until the nukes drop. Pushing the far left or far right will just end with them being crushed

I dont get it.

May not even need to use a nuke to do any of that

I am saying until the world burns the US military will not let someone trying to tale over the country happen.

True Patriots....I think Starship Troopers had some points

 

[Urabrask Revealed]

I dont get it.

Ignoring larger context, a guy named Spartacus fought the romans. He suffered a crushing defeat. The soldiers who fougth on his side were all crucified as a warning against future rebels along the Appian Way.

Now looking closer, it's not a fitting example of what would happen if the demorats were so stupid to refuse paying their army, save two things: one, the demorats would lose the ensuring battle quick and hard; two, the losers are made an example of, similiar to how Sherman burned down the southern cities.

Very much so

Ahhh, yeah it would probrably be worse, perhaps the president walking down it going "These domestic terrorists though they could take over peaceful protests for an unjust killing and then occupy a place where people cant go to work, so I delt with it!" As an example for the current situation

 

[Knowledgeispower]

I dont get it.

What was left of Spartacus's army was executed by Romans via crucifixion on the Appian Way

Huh, i am not fully read on Roman history

Thhis is someone running for fucing CONGRESS!

Isn't this why ISIS was very lethal in the beginning absorbing Saddam's ex soldiers blacklisted from serving the new regime?

Yes. Also, it was one of the reasons shit happened in Haiti in the 2000's. President decided to disband the Army, because it was opposed to him. The soldiers said "OK", and went home - with their guns and ammo. Not surprisingly, they became another gang holding territory in the Haitian cities.

They really should plan it out and offer disbanded soldiers something else to do. Otherwise point em to PMC or they find something like crime to pay the bills.
