    Did you actually read what you just posted? "a Navy Seal" and "forces the army to reinstate him".

    Good grief!!!

    Utterly meaningless stat. Do those "next five nations" have treaty obligations to defend FIFTY ONE other nations?

    Of course they don't.

    And why bother mentioning nuclear weapons? We can't use them except in retaliation thus they are pretty much useless for defense.

    I defend Trump as well - that does not mean I like the guy. Only an idiot determines the truth or falsity of information about someone - simply on the basis of whether or not they like that person.

    Why are you holding your breath at all ? - I have defended Trump in many things - Russiagate being front and center - but also for numerous other things - getting rid of regulations - being pro - pipeline.

    You couldn't defend Trump if your life depended on it. That much is clear. You have no material other than fallacy - mostly demonization / ad hom of one form or another.

    You need to get an argument mate :)

    Seems a bit different with Trump

    Trump Orders Navy To "Shoot Down And Destroy" Outlaw Iranian Gunboats
    [​IMG]
    I have instructed the United States Navy to shoot down and destroy any and all Outlaw Iranian gunboats if they harass our ships at sea.

    Enough is Enough!

    The Iranian military has harassed US servicemen station in the area, and back in 2016, there was a brief but intense international when Iran detained US sailors and 2 ships.

    The Iranian regime is struggling with a brutal coronavirus outbreak that has forced the regime to start reopening its economy for fear of an all-out collapse.

    Trump's command follows the release of footage showing Outlaw Iranian ships harassing Navy warships.

    Matt A US military statement condemned what it called "dangerous and harassing" approaches of six American vessels in international waters by nearly a dozen Outlaw Iranian fast boats.

    Trump does not need defending. If you look at what he does you know he is correct unless you believe the lies of the democrats

    No idea what you are referring to - certainly trump does many things - some are correct - some are not. The lies of the Dems are what they are .. welcome to politics.

    That only counts the inheritance after his death. It doesn't count the gifts Trump received during his father's life. I don't hold it against him -- my parents helped me out too -- but his reputation as a self-made millionaire are, to be generous, exaggerated. And I'm skeptical about the claims he was a billionaire until perhaps very recently.

    ~ Yes Trump is first and foremost a showman with dubious claims of business acumen. However he was elected president based on his agenda for America . 2

    He was elected President based on a statistical fluke which compelled the EC to choose him. The majority of people who had enough of an opinion about his agenda to vote on the matter voted against it.

    We haven't had a presidential candidate competent to handle the job in my memory. People who would do the job well simply don't run for office. They are too smart for that.

    So Obama could not get them to pass what he wanted? You show you do not understand how it works. Look how Obama was the one that had the final authority what was in Obamacare

    I am sure as usual you will merely claim that you have already refuted anything I post and then refuse to address questions to you but this blatant hypocracy on your part cannot go unnotice. You have claimed for YEARS President Bush was responsible for the Democrats 2008 and 2009 budget deficits, never explaining how he could have vetoed the 2009 budget resolution. And NO all budgets do NOT originate in the House, the House and the Senate concurrently pass their own budget resolutions sometimes the Senate before the House. The House does NOT control spending EITHER body can pass a spending bill and send it to the other for their consideration they are on equal footing when it comes to spending. Basic 4th grade civics.

    Senate passes massive $2 trillion coronavirus spending bill

    The House is expected to vote on the stimulus bill on Friday........

    I'll go ahead and accept your white flag.

    It was Clinton who passed a tax rate increase and slowed the growth of tax revenues and then was forced to sign the Gingrich/Kaisch tax rate cuts which got the economy back on track and we hit double digit tax revenue increases and the sign their welfare reform which got people back into the workforce as taxpayers and they produced the budget surpluses.
