US Politics Thread

Post stubbo-admin »

Seems like the main politics thread is becoming a Yankee-Doodle Trump-fest, so maybe scope here to split them out.

Will see if this one gains any traction ..if it does will move over a few of the million posts from our two protagonists from the other thread.

Yee-haaa!

How on earth could a nuclear terrorist attack happen on US soil a war head smuggled through customs  in false bottomed suitcase ? 


More bio chemical sarin etc
 
Why would the bomb have to be smuggled through US Customs? A small nuke, on a cargo ship, parked up in a major city harbour, detonated before any Customs inspection, would be devastating.
3 foot long and weighing 50 kg a shoe bomb perhaps ?

So here we are . In a Middle East hole of Trumps making and he keeps digging so the world economy keeps tanking
Why?
Well Epstein was an Israeli asset so Netanyahu has Trump over a barrel with some interesting blackmail evidence
Trump also still seems to supporting his mate Putin in every way he can
More compromising material in Russian hands?
On we go

A draft dodging cսnt calling others cowards?

Fuck right off.

If he’s at the behest of people like Netanyahu and Putin, that’s his fucking problem, not the rest of the civilised world.

Strategically and diplomatically lying. The CIA/Pentagon would have run that passed him as part of their calculations it would likely happen. We saw it on a much lower scale straight after Midnight Hammer happened by fucking up Irans Nuclear weapons ambition. 
his words:

"Saudi Arabia, all of a sudden, Kuwait. Kuwait is getting hit. Bahrain is getting…All these countries are getting hit," adding that "there was no expert that would say that was going to happen."

So now you take everything he says as gospel?
Yeh silly me expecting world leaders to have some sense of telling the truth from time to time.

If he did know then he's an even bigger idiot for letting it happen.

The other day Trump said 'nobody could have guessed' that Iran would attack other Gulf countries. He is either lying or stupid.
