FDT: JP Morgan officially project a recession.

True although I will say Romney was one of the few that was recently in office who was a old-school Republican and not MAGA.

shyt wild looking at the Pre Trump republicans and where we are now and it wasnt even thet long ago

 

[Vandelay]

this is hilarious. where was this military might when we were forced to leave Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan with out tails tucked?

Deaths

Korean War: US - 37,000 / NK - 500,000
Vietnam: US - 58,000 / Vietnam - 970,000 (3,700,000)
Iraq: US - 4,500 / Iraq - 200,000 (Varies)

I'm not even going to bother talking about Afghanistan. The objectives in those wars weren't complete annihilation of the enemy. In a US vs. Russia or China it would be a complete annihilation conflict. If it stayed to completely conventional weapons the US would turn both countries to glass.

Neither country can project their military. Neither country has bases surrounding the others countries. The other countries bombers and navy's and combat trained soldiers aren't up to the US. China hasnt even been in an external conflict since the 70s, and they got beat by the Vietnamese in that one. Above and beyond that, both countries have corrupt commanders who aren't even resupplying their armaments. Half of the stuff they claim to have, I don't even believe is operational and potentially even functional.

I've been posting some stuff from people like Reagan, George W., and George H.W. and it's scary lol. The narrative is that liberals went radical, but they all sound like modern liberals now.

The US is the strongest Military force the world has ever seen, no other country has a fukking chance.

I think people are going to be shocked when they see we aren't all that any more in the next conflict. Iran was hacking our drones. We can beat up on dusty terrorists alright.

Plus, our IP has been either stolen or hacked so anything we can do China can do. China already has the world's largest navy and the US doesn't ever have it's own shipyards anymore. The US went to sleep telling everybody we're still the champ, that alarm bell isn't going to be pretty.

The objective in those wars wasn’t to bomb the entire country to scorched earth

That’s what I’m saying. We would’ve been fine with him as President

Oh no doubt. Truth be told him and Obama aren't radically different on policy lol.

I don’t even know how we got on this tangent, but if there is anything that we have learned in the last 100 years is aggressor nations always leave with their tails tucked. All of them.

This notion that the U.S can just beat nations into submission is some delusional thinking that I thought the U.S adventures in the Middle East and Russia’s adventures in Afghanistan and Ukraine would have dispelled by now. But here we are…

Stop the nonsense. Its obvious that if America’s intent was total destruction and occupation of any of those countries you named before it would be over in a couple weeks at best. America’s intent has always been to defeat the opposition and then prop up puppet governments that are loyal to us and we’ve had varying degrees of success at it. Russia has struggled with Ukraine because Ukraine has been armed by America and damn near the entire EU. If Ukraine was as strong as you suggest on their own their president wouldn’t have agreed to a strong arm deal that gave away enough resources to set their country back generations because we threatened to stop arming them.

Anybody got a link to that thread from awhile back about people talking about living through a Great Depression? It had a part about unregistered guns

 

[Wild self]

Trump supports on FB are all for this, now they are claiming "short term pain, long term gain."

Im talking about, they gonna resort to CANNIBALISM for their meals.

 

[Wild self]

The mental gymnastics are infuriating. All Maga can die slow for all I care

Those MAGA fukks gonna die by the millions through 3rd world starvation

That's why during the debates it was like a Spiderman meme until Mitt talked about A Binder of Women .

Hell looking back at 2008, the only legitimate idiot in the campaign trail was Sarah Palin and that's just a brain cell removed from hard bodied retarded MAGAts.
