Maybe, maaaaybe, the defense budget is too large if the Marines are just out there losing planes worth tens of billions of dollars.
We could have had high speed rail. 🤷♂️
@Smersh No. It's not. I don't like that they lost the plane but I have no intention of falling under the Chinese or Russian regime in my lifetime and the Ukrainians deserve our help. If we hadn't elected TFG, Putin might not have started the war.
@TrueBloodNet that all has nothing to do with the price of tea in China.
@Smersh Sorry, deleted that. I got two replies mixed up.
Of course the military budget has to do with protecting us and Ukraine.
@TrueBloodNet the US is and should only be responsible for protecting the US. I’m fine with sending old stockpiles that would be replaced soonish anyways to help democracies being invaded but we aren’t the world police. We definitely need to dial back federal defense spending.
@Smersh First, NATO. Second, Ukraine is fighting a proxy war against Russia with their lives and their homes being destroyed. If Russia continues expanding, we'll be back where we were with the Soviet Union being a constant threat.
And again. No on the defense spending cutting.
@Smersh One would also hope they'd eject somewhere that the plane wouldn't hit people on the ground.
@sfleetucker or that it wouldn’t continue on autopilot ?!
Unimaginable incompetence
@Smersh I see that DoD logistics continues to have issues.
