Threads that link to an article, and copy the lede almost exactly. Yes, absolutely poorly thought out.

I was referring to your snide #winning portion of the OP. Clearly you hadn't thought it through before posting. Otherwise you would have realized this is purely a procedural issue. Sorry you got duped by fake news.

Give me deets. I admit that it might become implemented, so I am going to need something to sweeten the pot for me.

so what. They certainly aren't required to.


In fact, that's essentially what SOTU addresses are. Speeches about things the President is going to do , things that the agencies under him may or may not even know about.

Yall need to get off your high horse and deal with these tweets .

Yeah, he called him and told him that he was ignoring Mattis 6 month review that was a few weeks old and just doing the first thing that came to his head, with the spurious reasoning of saving 0.001% of the military budget.

Except that SOTU takes weeks to write and has input from multiple branches of the exec and some from Congress. It's not the medium nor the message at fault here, it's the decision making.

And for what it's worth, I love Trump's use of Twitter, both in a straight up way and in a cynical "can't wait until he admits something by accident way".

If you want to know who doesn't, put the following into the Twitter search bar:
"@realdonaldtrump" "I voted for you"

what the frick does that even mean in this context?

As a matter of fact you fricking idiot it was OBAMA who issued a directive to IGNORE the UCMJ as it was written by CONGRESS. SO he's the one who used bad means to justify his ends. If he wanted trannies in the military then he should have went to COngress and got the UCMJ amended the way they did for gays in 2010. Instead he simply told the Defense Department to ignore that part of the UCMJ.

So moron, let me ask you, do the ends justify the means?

No, means justifying the ends. Different thing.

As in, the fact he can do it justifies doing it. Which is a response you gave "as his right"

Ends justifying means, means doing it justifies the way it was done.

I support equality of opportunity, so I support Obama's decision. I'm not a fan of how it was implemented. I do not support the right of kings or imperial presidencies, so I do not support decisions made because they are Trumps right.

Yep.

This thread is silly.

It's just a reflection of the reality that Hawkeye hasn't the foggiest idea what he's talking about but, that doesn't stop him.

Hell. Trump could have walked out of a meeting with the Joint Chiefs agreeing to a trannie ban and if asked an hour later, the chiefs would have said, “There will be no modifications to the current policy until the president’s direction has been received by the secretary of defense and the secretary has issued implementation guidance,”

Hawkeye is a hack moron.
