I can’t think of a time this wasn’t true. The only difference now is they’re emboldened by the outward support of media.

Republicans have been asleep at the gate since at least 1950.

Can you give me an example of what you might consider losing ability to make as much money?


When I mean money I'm talking about the security of my wife and kid. If my wife and child can't live lavishly like they are now because of politics and shite will hit the fan. taxes really don't hurt me that much and low labor skill immigrants don't know what a CPU, Motherboard and GPU is so I wouldn't be worried about them taking my job. I can survive a Biden administration because I know he is going to frick it up with foreign wars and a shite economy. Also he is senile and on the brink of death.

You were clearly enlisted and note that virtually none of the military leaders - the flag officers - support Trump...with the notable exception of a former general who was convicted and then held out for a pardon by Trump...so his loyalty kind of makes sense.


What the frick? What difference does his rank make in his opinion? I had two Marines that had unbelievable ASVAB scores that I played chess with on deployments. Neither one wanted the MECEP option I offered them. The fact you feel morally superior to talk down to somebody because they were enlisted tells I was wrong about you. You are even more stupid than I thought.

Who you are really replying to is Abu the Monkey. That is his quote. And he is a damn good man. Former AC 11A (short tabbed) who has been in it. Don’t have to agree with him, but you have to respect where he has been and what he has done.


Look, I am here to make friends and if not friends, at least “frenemies.” This place would indeed be boring as hell if we all nodded in agreement as we drooled in our bowl of morning oatmeal.

I know nothing about his life story other than what is posted here. I certainly make no claim that he not a fine and decent man.

Yet after reading through this thread, the only veteran I see who is talking about “taking up a rifle” is not a Trump supporter and indeed seems antagonistic to Trump’s supporters. I just think that is worth noting.

So if we don’t plaster “say her name”, “coexist” or “Biden/Harris 2020 stickers across our cars and fly LGBQTXYOUZ flags while me post non stop about our White Guilt we are “racist, fascist, Sexist etc...”

He is frustrated. As I am. I do not want things to unfold as they are. Just damn insane. Having to choose between these two is torturous. The endgame has been so badly bungled.

Thanks for your explanation on the avi. It is fitting.

My friend who is still in the Army sent a picture of this guy to me. He was in the same Brigade as my friend up in Fort Drum in the 10th Mountain Division.

We all are frustrated and that is by design. What we have been witnessing the past four years is a classic destabilization operation straight out of a CIA Psyop black book.

They WANT violence and conflict in the streets. We need to avoid that trap because it ONLY empowers their hand.

I am afraid things are going to get much worse before they get better. The present trajectory is simply unsustainable.

My concern as well. The Left is never satisfied. As soon as they have the administration in office and the Congress sworn in it is going to start. Frick.

“I apprehend no danger to our country from a foreign foe ...

I fear that they may place too implicit a confidence in their public servants, and fail properly to scrutinize their conduct; that in this way they may be made the dupes of designing men, and become the instruments of their own undoing. Make them intelligent, and they will be vigilant; give them the means of detecting the wrong, and they will apply the remedy.”

We talk very little about politics. The little we have it’s pretty unanimous that one cheated election is the beginning of the end. No way to get that toothpaste back in the tube.
