Luckily, with our navy, we'd only really need to fight the Canucks and the Mexicans

None of these numbers either support or disprove your original topic which you edited the idiocy out of. You are a stupid person. You prove it here multiple times a day. Sad excuse for a man who don’t know when to put the phone down and stop embarrassing your ancestors. I can assure you no one is proud of you.

I’d pay a mint to just follow him around for a day with a notebook. It’s insidious ignorance. Which in and of itself I could forgive….its the willful lack of reasoning that makes this blob noteworthy.

Maybe, but 300,000 at least need to be purged and replaced with actual capable soldiers. The damage that auto pen did to this country and in this case, the military, cannot be understated. Trannies, DEI, Ask and I'll tell you all about it, generals and admirals in dresses and wigs. Did you see the parade? My God! Hopefully, that was a big part of that meeting yesterday. To weed out the useless when we're fighting for our very survival soon against the Chinese, Muslims, and whoever the frick else. We better get this shite fixed fast. If it's even possible. I ain't very confident if we go to all our war with a billion Chinese any time soon. You?

How many get out and claim disability for irritable bowel? Or PTSD from the firing range?
