Trump: 'Second Amendment people' could deal with Clinton

Capt Michael Greene - Basic history is that the dem party was the slave holding party and had many members into the '60's that were klansmen

SSG Kyle Stromgren That's correct. We agree. Emphasis on your word "was." I suggest reading a little something on "Nixon's Southern Strategy" to see how and why things radically changed.

The media has been twisting Trumps words for months now. It is easy to do, just take anything said put a spin on it and put it out there, the public will listen and believe. This goes for any public speaker. You have to listen to the actual speaker not the media.

SSG (Join to see) - I watch the man, in context, and listen to him double-down later. The man has no knowledge of the law, the Constitution, the basic workings of government, or the world situation. He truly believes he knows "more about ISIS than the generals" and he really thinks he is a business genius despite leaving a string of failed ventures and pissed off banks and creditors and investors behind him, holding the bag for billions.

But he's got charisma. He can make you love him. He has a halo about him, so that everything he says seems to be brilliant, even when it's literally just gibberish, punctuated only by his breathing.

Trump has been surrounded since birth with sycophants and yes-men. He has become not just a textbook case of narcissism (meaning he is unable to think of anyone but himself), but he just might be a sociopath (who would nuke the world as easily as ordering a coffee). Not in my 20 years of service, nor in my 60 years of life has there been such a dangerous candidate.

Capt Jeff S. - And yet Obama got elected twice. My point is the 2nd amendment people have been irrelevant in the past decades.

Capt Jeff S. - You're comparing the 21st century military to WWII? You do realize that war was the biggest calamity that all mankind has ever seen throughout the existence of hominids, don't you? You know what that costs? Our entire economy became "somewhat totalitarian" during the war years. Did you hear about rationing? City people grew their own food on vacant lots. You could only buy gasoline every other day. You needed government-issued coupons to allow you to buy a tire. Wages were set by the federal government. Prices were set by the federal government. Factories were told what to produce by the federal government. That's the only way we could afford such a giant war machine. THAT'S the military you want?

It's another matter that you don't like women and LGBTs. Our generals are experienced combat leaders and dedicated professionals. I think they know what they're doing. If you're thinking they are kowtowing to Obama, think again. They didn't get to that position by being milquetoast dummies.

Look around you. Bodies are NOT coming home by the dozens each week as they were under the previous administration. Despite what the Right Wing Propaganda Machine needs you to believe, we're doing better now in all measures than we were at the end of Bush's...crusade.

Capt Michael Greene Are you trying to educate me on what happened during WWII. "You do realize that war was the biggest calamity that all mankind has ever seen throughout the existence of hominids, don't you?" Try condescending a little harder. You'll convince me more.

I like women and I can tolerate LGBT's. I don't have a problem with women serving -- I simply don't think they add to the combat effectiveness of our combat infantry and studies have proven it. LGBT's come with their own mental health issues and I simply don't think it is cost effective, nor is it a win-win to have them serving in our units. They can still serve their country -- just not in the military. Islam in general, but especially ISIS sees America as inherently evil. The West's embrace of homosexuality is a potential recruiting aid for our enemies who despise Western culture for its tolerance of homosexuals, and the equality with which we treat our women.

I think this Administration has culled the ranks of the senior officers and replaced those it didn't like for loss of confidence -- and what might cause the Administration to lose confidence in their leadership? Might it be because they dared question the stupid policies of this Administration? As in like:

"Sir, why are we putting a SEAL Team on one helicopter?" Should we spread them out on two birds in case something happens to one of them?"

"Why are we moving nukes around without following standard procedure and documenting the transfers?"

"I know I got this BULLSHIT order to not send in a rescue team to pull those people out of the embassy, but I have assets in place that can reach them and screw it, I'm going to do the right thing and rescue them and apologize later for the misunderstanding..."

"Who is in charge of targeting? Why are we bombing the desert?"

"Why are we dropping leaflets before hitting their convoys? Those drivers are assisting the war effort by running oil into Turkey in violation of the sanctions!"

"Sir, Why are we dropping off $400 million on a pallet to the Iranians? Did Congress approve this transfer of money?"

Campare how many senior officers got relieved by Obama to how many got relieved by former Presidents. Care to explain why the difference? Do you honestly believe that there was sufficient cause for all these careers cut short?

"Despite what the Right Wing Propaganda Machine needs you to believe, we're doing better now in all measures than we were at the end of Bush's...crusade." Frankly, I think you sound like a brainwashed dummy. No offense. Just my ignorant opinion.

1LT (Join to see) - It would probably be more helpful if you could explain who has been relevant in the past decades?

So true. We have two terrible Candice for the two major parties. I started looking into Gary Johnson but he is not that much better either.

I need to stop writing on my phone without glasses, I'm really missing the letters and spellcheck does the rest!

Col Rebecca Lorraine - Glasses are ok, I have several pairs. Metaphor is the precise word for much of what DT says. The 'Wall' can be seen as another one . Missed yr last sentence. Do you mean if DT or HC wins we are so f......!

Capt Tom Brown - Either way it is our choice. Do you want the top or the bottom.... Too funny! I think we don't have any choice. Dealer wins.
